Your dog needs to take a daily walk in order to get the exercise his body needs and to get the mental stimulation his mind requires. However, you may not always have time to get him out during the day. Luckily, a walk at night can offer your pet the same benefits. To do this safely, you will need to take a few extra precautions.

You will need to make sure you are visible to those around you, both other people walking and motorists. Stick to well-lit areas that will allow you to be seen easily. Wear reflective clothing and make sure your dog’s collar has something reflective on it as well. Items that light up can also be helpful, as these can offer you the opportunity to create your own light. Both you and your dog can wear these items to let people know where you are.
