ï¿¼The “Float-A-Pet” system is both a pet locator and safety system for pets. To find your pet at night, the collar illuminates solar powered LEDs around the neck of a pet. For safety, the collar includes an integrated humidity sensor that detects moisture and if you pet is submerged in water, automatically triggers the onboard CO2 cartridge to inflate and provide a floating life preserver.

If the collar gets hung up on debris while in running water, won’t the animal die of hypothermia after a short while?

Perhaps it would be better to own a larger animal or keep your smaller animal on a leash?

Hmmmm. I’m not sure that solar powered LEDs would be my first choice for nocturnal illumination.

FINALLY! I am sick and tired of hunting for my dog in the floodwaters every other day. This will save me hours of search and rescue time every year.
