Blazin LED Light Up Dog Collar

A nylon collar with a row of separate LEDs along its length, so the light runs nearly all the way around the neck.

Who it suits

Dogs walked near roads after dark, and dark-coated or fluffy dogs that a small clip-on light can disappear into.

Key facts

• USB rechargeable, cord included; runs over 8 hours per charge (Blazin)
• Three modes: solid, fast blink and slow blink (Blazin)
• Listed as waterproof; four adjustable sizes for 8.1 to 27.5 in necks (Blazin)
• Maker claims visibility up to 1,000 feet and offers a lifetime warranty (Blazin)

What reviewers say

Treeline Review: A certified dog trainer tested eight collars at night, in rain and in car headlights and rated the Blazin the brightest, easily seen from about 1,000 feet, with light that showed through even on fluffy dogs; it was slow to dry when wet.

Canine Journal: Named it the overall winner of 21+ LED products it tested, for its bulbs that run through the resizing clasp and its 360-degree glow.

We did not test it ourselves.

Pros

• Brightest collar in Treeline Review’s test
• Light runs nearly all around the neck
• Three modes and four sizes

Cons

• Treeline Review found it slow to dry after getting wet
• One more collar to swap on and off for night walks

Good to know

• Canine Journal suggests keeping a normal everyday collar and switching to the LED collar for dark walks.
• Charge it before the walk, not after.
