Anybody have a source Huh? of that reflective tape like they place on dog collars so when you shine them with spotlight they reflect at night??  I used to buy it from Leather Bros but they dont sell it retail anymore they say today....  I am also looking for  saddler who can make some leggins and saddle bags with this tape sewed on it after i find it somewhere, who is building dog collars and saddle bags in the south central texas area??  I am looking for mule tack like britchings with rings so i can tie dogs leads into it and a breast collar as well, we ride down a county road to one of my ranches and i want somebody to make some saddle bags with the tape sewed on em as well to keep the idiots from running into us when we cross back to my kennel mule pasture, I dont want show stuff just tuff hunting quality stuff that will be scratched up first night.  I searched online for saddle bags and its about as hard as trying to find taperderos for sale that arnt junky chneeneese made.  Where have you guys been buying taps at and has anybody got a mule saddle for sale, i dont want a drug store pretty deal but something with a low saddle horn and lots of rings to tie stuff too.  Thanks in advance for any leads or links etc

If you come through Weimar, I can show you a britchen I had made several years ago for my mule turns out he was not going along with it on him, so it has never been used but its built to last. I don;t think I am gonna need it on my mule colt, so it may be for sale soon

 i may can get my hands on some reflective tape that can be seen for ovr a 1/2 mile away. we use it on our GSE ( ground support equipment) for aviation and it has to be highly reflective. i got a couple small rolls somewhere in my tck. i will see about gettn the NSN for it and research the distributors of it and get back with you in a couple weeks when i get down range. i use it on my dog collars for hunting at nite and it dont just come off easy.

Gees, thanks a million dub, that is exctly what i have a little bit left of, if you ever down here come  by and i will buy ya lunch, my wife been going crazy nagging me not to ride without somekind of refelctor tape in case something happens to me the first week i start riding, i only have one good leg anymore and got a new tryee mule to ride down to the ranch and back on with the dogs, she can hit that tape a long ways off with spotlight at night and tell where i am on the river back i go down with the terriers and mule trying to catch a coon or ringtail.  I going to try to order some this evening, thanks to all others who posted up as well, come down to my kennels or ranch if you are going by, I posed to have some mule rack for a 1 ton with a factory bed coming in th mail and will get them up asap to see if can get it designed like my old folder down one so can haul 2 small mules in the bed with the loose dogs and saddles over the cab.  I just drove back from San Antone round trip, saw 3 big dead boars, about 5 deer and around 10 coons i guess got wacked last night in the norther that blew in, it was 32 here when i left the house at Beeville, we got 2 litters of rat terriers and they inside th ehouse in rabbit hutches till it warms up some, I ordered those pig farrowing litter plastic pads in 13 x30 lenght but they did not come in from Nebraska hog supply store, wil get pictues up of this set up in case somebody could use it sometime for a large litter of curs or Lacys or whatever to keep a runt pup going, they also work good for a cut down or ill hound to help them throw out depression from getting cold or sulking up, i saved a few dogs with these heating pads at times and sometimes lost them too, but there are cheap and good insurance.  Thanks again all to offfered help!!!
