Once we showed our 6 month old Pup how to get in and out of the pool - he took off swimming daily with or without us, so we purchased this to keep him afloat in case he got too tired out. Easy on and off clips. Easy to adjust. Floats perfectly holding him up in the tummy & under the neck.

I wouldn't recommend this if your dog is a swimmer. I think it's fine for boating or kayaking/SUP if your dog won't jump in, but if they do I wouldn't recommend it. The straps don't stay tight, so I was having to constantly re-tighten them every time my dog got out of the water. They became so loose that it was almost like he wasn't even wearing a jacket. The plus side is that it's a pretty good price compared to other dog life jackets I've seen, and I love the material and the front chest strap. However, I will be returning it since the straps don't stay tight.

This life jacket is perfect for my 77 lb pit bull. It keeps her above water. She is heavy and muscular so her back end sinks. She loves the water, now i dont have to worry that she will drown.

I love Outward Hound products. I’m disappointed to report that this vest does not meet expectations. The straps become loose. The flotation pillow that supports the head and neck does not stay in place and gives little support.

I had a similar life vest last summer for my dog, but she used it so much that it wore out. I found this one and it's perfect. Not bulky like a lot of other life vests, and the 2 handles really come in handy. I only with there were more color choices.

It really is a nice material and fits perfectly. The only downfall is we went kayaking and the neck strap broke within the first mile. The straps also would't stay tight at all, so I was constantly readjusting him every chance I could. I don't think it helped my hound much.

love this jacket for my dog, the only thing that is a problem is to adjust the neck is just a velcro wrapped around & sliding it won't stay. I'm going to get my sewing machine out & sew a piece of velcro in place. They just need to change this part.

My busy lab is 9 years old and not as strong of a swimmer as he used to be! A hefty 100lb + this fits him perfectly. It allows us to still get him adequate exercise without a safety concern!

I bought this jacket for my 12 yr old American Eskimo, who thinks he's still a pup! He has hip displaysia, I just wanted a little extra support for him when he swims, to make it easier on him. I got Jack a size small. He is approx 20 lbs and it fits perfectly. I was a little conflicted on which size to purchase, going by the guide for girth, he would be a medium, but weight he was a small by far. Glad I picked the right one! Also, It was very reasonably priced. Jack knows how to swim, so this just assists him. I'm not sure how well it would work for a non-swimmer, as I haven't used it in that way.
