Way scary ride! Imagine the training they must do to get a dog to be able to do that and then do his job at the landing site. eesh!
---- As it gets darker, sooner now I have been bringing out our reflective stuff for the evening leasher. I'd rather get all reflective (and look like a dork) than fiddle with a flashlight, so I wear a green reflective tape vest and Reilly has a reflective vest, too. the Canine Vizvest- I can't find their website with the cool animation of the sky darkening and the vest brightening... it's super bright. Reilly could direct landing planes at Logan Airport, I bet. We have a reflective leash- which I find stiff but bright. And the orange hunting collar completes her ensemble. We live in a rural area and the few cars that come by go fast on our long roads and usually drive right down the middle, but since we started wearing these vests last winter, cars slow WAAAY down when they pass us. Much slower than in daylight, even. I thought "how polite" for while until I realized they were almost stopping, and I decided they must think we are abnormally reflective for private citizens and they may hope we might be police K9 team tracking criminals or evidence or something for too exciting for this little town. Then they slow down and discover we are just neon nerds.
