Pet Safety Light
Is your pet's world truly safe? Pet Safety Lights are designed for all pets with owners who care.
If you love your pet you will love the Pet Blinkie. Pet Blinkies are vibrant, multi-color lights that attach easily to a collar, leash or harness. Pet Blinkies are waterproof and visible up to 1/2 mile away.
Available in 3 blinking, vibrant colors:
Blue/White, Red/White, and Pink/Jade
These pet blinkies are perfect for your dog or cat. If your dog wanders off, you will be able to see exactly where he or she is at. When you don't need the light, you can turn it off or you can remove it from the collar. Replacement batteries available. You get about 3 days of constant blinking with one set of batteries.
These pet blinkies are a popular item, and for many good reasons.
Need help finding your pet at nighttime? Do you feel afraid that your pet will disappear from your sight? Are you having a hard time finding something to solve these problems? Then consider this pet safety light.
Our pet blinkies are an easy and safe way to take that desired walk when it is more difficult for your pet to be seen.
Taking a late evening stroll with your pet can now be much safer. The pet safety light is clearly visible at night, keeping drivers aware of where your pet is. With the pet blinkie's bright, multi-colored lights, motorists will be able to see you and your pet from a ½ mile away!
If your pet happens to escape its leash and run off, the blinking feature on the unit can help you locate your animal.
Sometimes keeping your pet outside is difficult, especially when it is early in the morning or late in the evening. Having a low or non-existent light source can cause your animal to slip by you, and enter the home when you want them to stay outside. The pet safety light gives you the advantage of seeing your pet during the day's darkest hours.
A simple clip-on attachment on the pet blinkie allows it to attach to any collar, leash, or harness. It is just as easy to remove the pet blinkie as it is to attach it.
It is weatherproof as well, so that inclement weather will not cause the unit to malfunction.
The light on the unit can last up to three days of constant blinking with one set of batteries. If you do not need the light, simply turn it off until you do need it.
Taking a nice stroll before sunrise, or that relaxing stride just after sunset with your faithful canine can now be much safer. If your affectionate friend decides to run off, there is now a faster way to locate them. Finding your pet anywhere in foggy weather is now much simpler. This easy to use pet safety light can solve all of these problems for you, without having to resort to more expensive or difficult ways to do it.

REGINA – Pet owners can relate to that feeling of panic when a dog or cat goes missing.
Having some sort of way to track an animal seems like the solution to eliminating that panic. So over the p...ast few years, GPS pet tracking devices have been begun to spring up on the market.
We used to sell GPS tracking devices for dogs at The Covert Eye a few years ago, but then the company changed owners and quit distributing wholesale. However, we're looking to add that product again with another company well-known in the field and hope to begin adding them to our inventory soon. I may even be the first one in line, myself.

Every semester of every year you can read hundreds of reports where a woman was physically assaulted on campus. While colleges and universities have tried to step up security patrols, especially at night, reports of attacks and attempted rape continue to persist. While there are precautions a woman can take to lessen the chances of becoming a victim, one of the best weapons she can have at her disposal when confronted in a threatening situation is a shot of pepper spray. A less than $20, the MACE Keyguard Pepper Spray is compact, convenient, and has a key ring that easily attaches to your house, dorm room, car, and other keys you carry. Be alert, be cautious, and be prepared.

One of the most dangerous places for children is the backyard swimming pool. Do not consider putting in a pool until they are at least six years or older, if possible. Make sure you practice pool safety year-round. Pool and spa submersions and drowning happen quickly, especially when they involve children. A child can drown in the time it takes to answer a telephone. Learn the simple steps you need to know to keep your children and family safe in and around pools and spas. One of the most effective means of safety is having constant adult supervision when children are in, or near the pool. It also means installing the first measure of safety in the form of a pool alarm.
The pool alarm is an electronic monitoring system that automatically sounds an alarm when children or pets fall into your unsupervised pool. It's portable, self-contained, and lightweight. More than 900 children between 1 and 14 years old die each year in drowning accidents. In California, drowning is the number one cause of accidental death for children between 1 and 4. A pool alarm is your first line of defense, and can be the difference between life and death.
Here are some other tips as set forth by the American Academy of Pediatrics to help safe-guard your children from accidental drowning this summer.
· Never leave your children alone in or near the pool, even for a moment. An adult who knows CPR should actively supervise children at all times.
· Practice touch supervision with children younger than 5 years. This means that the adult is within an arm's length of the child at all times.
· You must put up a fence to separate your house from the pool. Most young children who drown in pools wander out of the house and fall into
the pool. Install a fence at least 4 feet high around all 4 sides of the pool. This fence will completely separate the pool from the house and play
area of the yard. Use gates that self-close and self-latch, with latches higher than your children's reach.
· Keep rescue equipment (such as a shepherd's hook or life preserver) and a telephone by the pool.
· Do not use air-filled “swimming aids” as a substitute for approved life vests.
· Remove all toys from the pool after use so children aren't tempted to reach for them.
· After the children are done swimming, secure the pool so they can't get back into it.
· A power safety cover that meets the standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) may add to the protection of your children but should not be used in place of the fence between your house and the pool. Even fencing around your pool and using a power safety cover will not prevent all drowning.
Remember, teaching your child how to swim DOES NOT mean your child is safe in water.

The best way to prevent a child from drowning is to be vigilant. But can you be vigilant 100% of the time? Last year more than 300 children in the U.S. under the age of 5 drowned in backyard swimming pools. Six-hundred more between the ages of 6 and 14 also died due to accidental drowning. There are times when even the best parents take their eyes off their children for a minute or two. At any moment, without any warning, a tragedy can occur. Most pool accidents happen in less than five minutes; about the time it takes to grab a sandwich or a cold bottle of soda. But there are tips and tools that can help reduce water mishaps and promote pool safety. Pool safety alarms are one item that every pool owner should
have. The added protection they provide could keep your children from becoming another statistic.
The Pool Alarm is an electronic monitoring system that automatically sounds an alarm when children or pets fall into your unsupervised pool. It's portable, self-contained, and lightweight. The unit is simple to operate. Entry into the pool will be detected by the pool alarm's electronic sensor, triggering a loud pulsating alarm at the unit and inside your house from the remote receiver.
Installation of the pool alarm is easy. It sits on the pool deck as in the picture. After you install the alarm, it can't be deactivated. It is always in the alarm ready mode until you put it in sleep mode. If someone who does not know how to put the pool alarm in sleep mode attempts to remove the alarm, it will sound an alarm. The pool alarm comes with a remote receiver which can be mounted in your house up to 200 feet from the main unit. It also comes with a 12 volt power supply, and the unit itself uses one 9-volt battery, which should last approximately one year.
Installing a pool alarm is only one safety measure, though, when it comes to safe-guarding your children around the backyard pool. You need to be aware of the other nationally recognized water safety steps to ensure your children, or any child who enters your pool area, is protected as much as possible. Review these tips below and learn them. Don't let your child become another statistic. Practice pool safety.
Step 1. For starters, never allow children to swim without adult supervision, even if they know how to swim. And always keep children under five within your reach while at the pool.
Step 2. Enclose the pool with a fence that is at least five feet high. Keep the fence clear of chairs or other objects that children can use to climb over the fence. Make sure the gate stays locked and closes automatically.
Step 3. Always keep a life saving ring near the pool. Don't use inflatable swimming aids as a substitute for adult supervision or approved life vests. They give children and parents a false sense of security.
Step 4. When you are at the pool, be sure to keep a cell phone or a home phone line with you. You would never want to have to leave the pool area to use the phone. In the short amount of time that you are gone, a child can get injured or drown.
Step 5. Install pool security devices like infrared motion detectors, underwater wave sensors, and pool alarms that will alert you if someone is in the pool.
Step 6. When you're not using it, keep the pool completely covered. Never partially open the pool cover.
Step 7. Finally, take the time to learn CPR. Utilizing these guidelines will help you keep your pool a fun, safe area.

Thieves targeting women who are alone, police say.
After a series of muggings and car-jackings targeting women, police in Jackson, Mississippi, said Friday that women should arm themselves.
"I wouldn't say packing, but I think they need some sort of weapon in order to protect themselves," Officer Colendula Green said. "A lot of friends of mine have tasers or (pepper) spray."
The Jackson Police Department is investigating six cases in the past month of carjacking, armed robbery and auto theft. The two to three thieves, who were either on foot or in a vehicle, are described as black men who are 16 to 20 years old, dressed in dark clothing and hooded shirts. At least one of them was armed during the incidents, police said.
A woman who lives at the Fondren Hills Apartments, where one of the attacks took place, said a friend sent her pepper spray so she could protect herself.
"I sent him the news, and he was worried, but he can't do anything because he's not from here. So he got me (pepper spray) from Amazon," she said.
Jackson police on Thursday issued an urgent warning to women who are alone to be aware of their surroundings when walking to or from their vehicle, along with the following advice:
• If you feel that you are being followed, call 911 immediately and report your location and description. Stay on the phone with the dispatcher in a well-illuminated area until an officer arrives.
• Avoid dark and isolated areas while alone. If possible, travel with others during nighttime hours.
• Report any suspicious activity.
• Avoid distractions, (e.g. cellphones and loud music) while traveling or walking to or away from your vehicle.
• Avoid the display of items that could be attractive to suspects.
"Also, if they have their keys in their hand, if they're approached by a perpetrator, or something like that, they can use their keys as a weapon," Green said.

Chances are, either you or someone you know has a home security system—and if your home is in Richardson, Texas, police there want to know, too.
With home surveillance systems dropping in price in recent years, security cameras have become more common… serving up ‘gotcha moments' at the push of a button: whether that's a delivery man behaving badly, or a crook caught in the act
The idea in Richardson is to map out a network of home security cameras in neighborhoods throughout the city to aid police in identifying and capturing burglars and other perpetrators. In the case of one local resident, Leo Pease, he found a neighbor lady crying as she came out of her house one day because she had discovered she had been robbed. Pease calmed her down and then decided to check the footage from his own cameras. Sure enough, he had caught the burglar on video. Police used the evidence to eventually arrest the thief and return the stolen items back to the woman.
This idea of keeping a database of residential security cameras to aid law enforcement to widen its own surveillance systems is likely to be adopted in other cities and towns around the country.

Oscar winner NICOLE KIDMAN is trying to raise awareness of violence against women. The actress, who is the goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) - helped launch the Say No to Violence against Women campaign. She says, "One in three women will encounter violence in some way, shape or form against them in their lifetime. So much of it is shrouded in silence. What we are trying to do is say this is something that needs to be addressed.
A lot of it is taking away the stigma, creating awareness and not making it a silent pandemic. I want to encourage people of all nations to unite behind our call to end violence against women." Despite the advances of our society and the changing view we take of women's rights, abuse continues to be a huge problem in this country, as it does in India, South Africa, Pakistan and Asia.
In 2009, there were over 270,000 reported cases of rape or sexual assault against women in the U.S. Unlike our stereotype image of these victims, abuse against women happens to the wealthy, educated, and even soccer moms. In the United States, every twelve to eight seconds a woman is beaten by a man; four women each day are reported beaten to death; 1 in 6 women will be sexually assulted in their lifetime; and college-age women are 4 times more likely to be sexually assulted than any other demographic. Violence against women knows nothing about socio-economic, educational, racial or religious boundaries. While we have certainly made great strides towards a more equitable, just society for everyone, we still have a long way to go before we can say we have truly overcome our violent behavior.
So, what measures can be taken to reduce these numbers? If we remember our medieval history of the world, there were valiant knights who saved damsels in distress. Remember King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table? In today's world a woman gets molested and harassed domestically as well as in the workplace, and these issues go without any notice. Abuse against women even takes place right in public places. We feel sorry for the poor lady, but we just go on with our lives. Where have all those knights gone?
Over the past few years, as various support groups for battered and abused women have grown, so, too, have self-defense classes for women. Women today are choosing to fight back! In nearly every community you can now find instructional training for women that promotes security, safety, and self confidence from knowing how to defend yourself from the threat of attack. But what if you're a Senior living alone, or weigh all of 98 pounds soaking wet? There are several personal security alarms and non-lethal personal protection devices on the market today that can offer you that same level of safety and security, while providing you the self defense weapon that will turn the table against any attacker. Do not become another statistic! Below, are some of the items available that you can carry with you to turn the odds in your favor.
Personal Alarms – These are small devices that can fit easily on a keychain so they are always at your fingertips. They produce a loud 130 db screeching alarm that immediately draws the attention of any passerby. When some unsavory character approaches you, simply press the button and the alarm sounds. They come in various decibel levels and can prove to be the first line of defense against an attack. The last thing most assailants want is to draw attention to themselves. These handy alarms do just that. They're great when you're alone, convenient to carry when you're out and about, and portable enough to pack in a suitcase.
Pepper Spray – Pepper Spray comes in many shapes and sizes. The smallest are the size of a tube of lipstick and the largest are about the size of a small fire extinguisher. There are models designed for joggers; others designed to attach to the visor of your car; models that attach to your keyring; and sprays that are cleverly concealed in small everyday objects. Designed to temporarily disable your attacker, they can shoot as far as 12 feet, and when shot into the face of the perpetrator will cause pain and swelling in the eyes and throat. Made from a formula of 10% Oleoresin Capsicum with 2 million Scoville Heat Units, a direct shot will leave your attacker temporarily blinded and gasping for air, giving you time to get to safety. Many pepper sprays are also include a dye that leaves its mark on the attacker, giving the police an easy method to identify them. Pepper sprays are also useful on aggressive animals. One shot in the face will turn the most ferocious dog whimpering off in the other direction.
StunGuns – Stun Guns also come in all shapes and sizes. There are standard models designed to intimidate on sight and more subtle models disguised as cell phones. They all come with a safety to prevent accidental discharge and most of the newer models have an alarm that sounds if for some reason you lose control of the device. Stun guns are an aggressive way to stop any attack. They disrupt the flow of electricity in the body leaving the assailant disabled and lying on the ground, while you run to safety. Though the effects are temporary, they will provide you with more than enough time to escape and find help. Because of their design, the disabling effect of the stun gun can't be transferred from one person to another, even if your assailant is touching you. Along with a built in alarm most models also come with a flashlight. Using the flashlight on your way to the car keeps the stun gun in your hand when you need it most.
Tasers – Taser devices are commonly seen on TV or in the news where a police officer has to subdue someone who is not complying with verbal commands. The subject is often seen posing a danger to himself, or others, and has to be incapacitated for the safety of the officers or of others in the vicinity. Taser devices have been shown to be extremely effective in taking down even the most aggressive person. The Advanced Taser brand non-lethal weapon is a conducted energy weapon that utilizes compressed nitrogen to shoot two small probes up to 15 feet. These probes are connected to the weapon by high-voltage insulated wire. When the probes make contact with the target, the weapon transmits powerful electrical pulses along the wires and into the body of the target, through up to two inches of clothing. The new Taser series has an almost 100% effectiveness rating.
No matter your choice, arming yourself against personal attack is a fundamental right in our free society. You have the right to feel safe. You have the right to protect yourself. And you have the responsibility to do the same for your family. Personal safety technology is a great solution to non-lethal defense. Feel Safe Again!
