We visit a lake every summer and decided to take our dog with us for the first time. She was not a confident swimmer and would not go in on her own. With this life jacket and a few times luring her out into the water, she quickly learned that she could float. Within just a few days, she was so confident that she was swimming without the life jacket!! It is also super sturdy. I took her paddle boarding, and with her newfound swimming confidence, she would jump off of the board to go retrieve pine cones and sticks from the water. The handles made it super easy to lift her back up onto the board. Overall, this was a huge success. No regrets buying it!

It has been hard to find a safety vest for my lab. Even though she can swim, we are on the lake for long periods during the summer. We found she was getting tired and reluctant to jump in at times. We haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but I feel sure it will be used a lot this summer.

These are perfect for our two GSP's (German Shorthaired Pointers). Ordered Medium for our female (45 lbs) and Large for our male (60 lbs). They love wearing their vests to swim, ride on the boat, and paddle board with us. From their first few swims to the end of this summer, these vests have really held up (we use them about once a week). The handles are fantastic for assisting the pups up on to our SUP boards from the water.. they swim for hours along side our boards and we don't have to worry about them getting tired. Just ordered another one to replace Nova's because hers ripped due to the excessive wear and tear (we got or money's worth). We highly recommend!

Got this after an afternoon at in-laws led to THREE accidental falls into their pool. Luckily some of us were in it and some were on side to rescue her, but I bought this as soon as I got home. She looks great in it too and I don't have to worry if she falls in or decides to come in with us. Maybe we'll go boating or fishing and take her since she had this now.

I bought this to do water therapy for my paralyzed dog. It works great. It has a handle on top that I can hold her up with and keeps her afloat.

My lab likes his new accessory! He walked around showing it off. I haven't tried him in the water yet, but will do that soon. I got a size larger (XL) than his measurements b/c he was at the high end of a size large with no room to grow. It looks to fit almost perfectly (a little loose in hind end, but it's okay), with plenty of room for more growth, which is good since he's just 2yrs old. So far, we're very pleased with this purchase!

Saying "I'm pleased with my purchase" is an understatement. This life jacket is remarkably reliable for any dog. Opie is a ~2y/o Pitbull who LOVES water. This jacket is made of quality, durable material all the way from the Velcro strap to the plastic buckles. There are five things I really like about this jacket: 1) the bright orange color, 2) the velcro strap that helps the jacket stay snug on Opie, 3) the buckles for extra security 4) the two handles on the top of the jacket that I can use to easily pull Opie out of the water, and 5) the little neck flotation pillow that helps his head stay above water easier than he can do it without a life jacket on.

I was hesitant to purchase because our Berner is so big and likes to let his butt sink when he swims, I wasn't sure if the life jacket would actually prevent that. The handles, however, helped tremendously in helping him keep his behind up and also help him if he got tired while swimming in a lake. I think he felt much more comfortable swimming and did not have to use our other dog as a floaty. Plus, he looked ridiculously cute in it too!

I bought this for my pitbull pup because she loves to chase the ball in the water. When I took her to the beach, the lifejacket worked great for the first 10-15 minutes but then the velcro strap that goes underneath their belly kept coming undone and hanging off. Luckily, there are buckles that kept the lifejacket on, but I was still a bit disappointed. This product may be better for swimming pools where the waves aren't as big and rough. Wouldn't recommend for a pup that likes to swim in the ocean or lake.

We have a retired war dog with nerve damage, we are hoping the vest will help Leo to move his back legs better in our pool.
