 Safety Tips

Avoid wearing clothing with white, tan, or brown.Wear “hunter” orange. Wal-Mart carries this clothing in their sporting section and is fairly in expensive. Something as simple as a vest or hat.

When walking dogs it’s a good idea to place a bell on the collar or purchase a “hunter” orange collar or vest.
