This life jacket is a lifesaver—literally! It’s well-designed, durable, and gives me confidence when my dog is in the water. Whether at the lake, beach, or pool, this is a must-have for dog owners. Five stars!
Only contains thin foam ~10mm so doesn't provide much buoyancy.
Nice and strongly made
I lifted my water logged 90lbs lab probably 20 times by the handle of this vest and it held up perfectly. No popped stitches and the way it distributed weight for my dog seemed to keep him comfortable as he was being craned up. Additionally when you hoist them up by the handle it puts a lot of pressure on the buckles but they held up great.
That’s where the other brand failed on the third pull. The buckles popped and would not longer stay connected. I’m buying a second one of these for my other dog now.
Fit and finish is great, price is great and lots of colors.
Lightweight compared to description.
Will be taking our dogs on their first pontoon ride on an alpine lake. We’re glad to have the vests to help provide them extra protection and support.
My dog is 4lbs the XS is to big for him do.
That being said, I am happy with this life jacket for her. She is 11 years old and doesn't necessarily "need" it yet, but I am getting her ready in advance. We compete in dock diving and I noticed my older, 14 year old, full lab gained a ton of confidence back in a life jacket. So I started getting this dog used to one. She doesn't even seem to realize she's wearing it on both our home deck and a competition rig. We will be trying it in the ocean as well in August 2024.
So, I tried 2 sizes on her and there is a BIG difference when you size up. When the jacket is too long, the dog can't bend its middle correctly. I kept the smaller size and made some slight alterations to make it just a little bit better for her. I added velcro to the soft side of the belly band so there is a larger velcro on velcro area. I also replaced the strapping on the chest piece with a bit that is slightly longer.
The only change that wasn't due to her weird build was this: I added bias tape around the edges of the belly band where the hard velcro is. The edges of the velcro are very hard.... sewing on a bit of bias tape does not affect the functionality of the velcro, but covers the very uncomfortable edges. This is why I dropped a star.
I hope this jacket holds up! My dog seems confident in it and I don't foresee a problem when the time comes that she needs a little support in both competition and leisure swimming.
Small trick. With longer hair dogs, get them wet first before putting it on. The velcro won't stick if their hair is in the way.
I got him the large. I will be ordering the XL as well because he will still grow a little bit by the time he gets to age 2.
So far it's easy to use, durable, the color (orange) is bright and can be seen easily in and out of the water. Not very easy to adjust but once you're fit you shouldn't need to adjust.

The jacket is easy to put on and take off, with adjustable straps that ensure a snug fit. The handle on top is sturdy and well-placed, allowing for quick retrieval if needed.
There's just one design issue that prevents this from being a perfect product: the placement of the leash hook. For some reason, the manufacturers decided to put it on the back of the jacket. This positioning causes my dog to walk backward when I try to lead her, or if I attempt to guide her forward, it pulls the jacket out of position.
It would have been much more practical to place the hook somewhere on the front of the jacket. This way, walking my dog while she's wearing the life jacket would be much more comfortable for both of us.
Despite this inconvenience, I still highly recommend this life jacket for its overall quality and effectiveness. If you can overlook the awkward leash hook placement or don't plan on using a leash with it often, you'll find this to be an excellent purchase for keeping your furry friend safe during water activities.
Mon carlin pèse 20 livres et j'ai acheté le small.
Je le recommande 😀😃🙂
Also, not sure how long that velcro will hold up, the neck collar cover velcro piece already came undone once and was reattached without an issue. But, we have only used this one time, so not impressed with the velcro quality. Breed: Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Weight: 75 pounds, Chest measurement: 33 inches, Color Jacket: Purple, Size: XL
