Precautions
This life jacket is a flotation aid intended for dogs only. Always supervise your dog when using this product and use only in calm waters. The jacket's top handles should be used to lift your dog during an emergency only and are not intended for excessive use.
Hand wash cold with mild detergent. Do not bleach. Hang to dry. Wash separately.
For the best fit, we recommend selecting the size based on your pet's chest measurement. Once you have determined the correct size, you should then reference the weight the life jacket can safely support. If your pet falls somewhere between two sizes, we advise ordering the larger of the two.
Body: Measure the base of the neck to the base of the tail.
Neck: Measure the circumference of pet's neck for a snug fit as you would with a collar.
Chest: Measure your dog's chest around the widest part. No need to add additional inches.

1. Is the neck adjustable?
2. This is rated as low movement/flexibility but looks less bulky that others I've seen. Is is very bulky and awkward?

On the front, there’s an adjustable, telescoping neck closure to help you get a comfortable fit for your dog. This is designed as a life jacket and will be a bit bulky to ensure buoyancy.
My Westie puppy loves the pool but since he is only 4 months old, I wanted a life jacket for him until he is grown. This jacket was perfect for him.

impressed so far
I had my doubts bout ordering this bc it was so much cheaper then the other but let me tell you I’m very impressed so far! The material is the same as if I bought a $20 vest. I love the double handles they are very comfortable to hold. I wish I would have went up a size bigger but it’s okay I still have some let out room! I love the leash hook and I love how it’s double supported under the belly and I love the mesh pockets perfect for his info card to fit into just incase someone needed it! So far I’m very very impressed can’t wait to use it this weekend <3 <3
Milo is a 4.5 month old 40lb lab
This is a medium it’s velcro to the max and the buckles are let half way out!

Perfect for 4 month old Golden Puppy
Jacket is great quality for an outstanding price.
Gave my puppy the confidence to swim on his own.
Easy to grasp him with the handle to guide him in the right direction in the pool.
Love it!

Not strong enough
the Measurements were perfect for the height and weight of my dog but it would not hold the weight of my dog when the dog was in the water. Glad I didn’t spend a lot of money on it

lifejacket
The jacket looks to be very well made. My puppy has only used it once so far but it fit great and she appeared to be very comfortable in it.
