Product Information
Full details
The Petface Outdoor Paws Flash Dog Tag is an essential safety accessory for dog owners who frequently walk their pets in low-light conditions. Designed to enhance visibility during evening or early morning outings, this durable tag uses a bright red light to ensure your dog remains easily identifiable from a distance. While it provides excellent peace of mind for night-time visibility, users should note that it relies on battery power and will require periodic replacement to maintain full illumination.

FAQs
Is this tag waterproof?
The tag is weather-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain, but it should not be submerged in water or used for swimming.
What type of batteries does it use?
The tag typically uses small button-cell batteries. Please refer to the back of the unit or the original packaging for the specific model number.
Can I leave this tag on my dog 24/7?
While it is durable, it is recommended to remove it when the dog is indoors or unsupervised to preserve battery life and prevent accidental damage.
Does it come in other colors?
This specific guide covers the Red Flash version, which is designed for maximum visibility in dark conditions.
Will the light distract my dog?
No, because the light is positioned on the collar, it is generally outside of the dog's direct field of vision and will not distract them.
Troubleshooting
The tag is not lighting up
Check if the batteries are inserted correctly or if they need to be replaced with new cells.
The clip won't stay attached to the collar
Ensure the D-ring on the collar is not too thick for the clip; if it is, consider attaching it to a smaller split ring first.
The light is flickering or dim
This is a sign of a low battery; replace the batteries to restore full brightness.
Pros and Cons

- Easy to attach and remove with the included clip
- Lightweight and comfortable for dogs of all sizes
- Durable housing suitable for outdoor use
Cons
- Requires battery changes for continued use

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the tag, simply locate the metal clip on the back of the device and hook it onto the D-ring of your dog's existing collar. Ensure the clip is fully closed to prevent it from snagging or falling off during vigorous activity.
Compatibility: This tag is compatible with virtually all standard nylon, leather, and metal dog collars.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth if the tag becomes muddy.
- Avoid submerging the device in water, as it is weather-resistant rather than fully waterproof.
- Check the clip attachment regularly to ensure it hasn't become loose.
- When the flash becomes dim, open the battery compartment according to the markings to replace the internal cells.
