The days are getting shorter and shorter and when we walk our dog before and after work, deer head chihuahua terrier mix it is often already gloomy or even really dark. When fog and rain are added, we become almost completely invisible to car and bicycle drivers. That is not supposed to be the case.
There is no question that we and our dogs are exposed to great risk, but this is also not without danger for motorists, cyclists, and other road users. A fact that we are often not even aware of.
More than just visibility
Let’s put ourselves in the position of a car driver. If you’ve ever driven a car in the dark and in bad weather, then you probably know how much concentration it takes. Because the risk of recognizing a pedestrian or a dog much too late or even completely overlooking it is much greater and carries danger for everyone involved. Also, the driver, who tears the steering wheel around in terror at the last moment to avoid an accident and gets into a spin on the wet road. Or for the scooter rider or cyclist to whom this happens.
As dog owners, we have just as much of a responsibility here as the driver, who has to adapt his speed to the conditions. Therefore, make sure that you and your dog are clearly visible at any time of the day and in all weather conditions. Other road users will be grateful if they can see you well from afar. And you and your dog? Clearly visible, you can go for a walk much more calmly, because your risk is significantly reduced. For everyone, life becomes much more pleasant.
