There's nothing more important than your pet's safety. That's why the Halo mini LED collar is perfect for evening walks - it lights up so your dog can be seen from far and wide. Now you'll finally find out where he's been hiding the bones.

10. Whistle activity monitor

Nowadays, everyone has a smart device - and dogs are no exception. The Whistle monitor attaches to your dog's collar and tracks his activity throughout the day, recording rest, play, walks, medication and food. It'll send updates to your smartphone so you can track what your dog is doing during the day. It's particularly helpful for creating healthy habits for pets.
