"Designed with the skilled swimmer in mind..." Does this mean it does not provide as much buoyancy as other life jackets?

Answer by Chewy • May 28, 2019
This life jacket is designed with the skilled swimmer in mind but is still suitable for dogs of all experience levels.

I am not seeing any velcro on this vest, Is that correct? I am hoping to buy a vest without any velcro on my pup.

Easy to use! Great Fit!

My puppy will not stay out of the water. He loves to swim. Having this jacket makes me feel more comfortable with his time the lake. The bright color makes him visible

My puppy will not stay out of the water. He loves to swim. Having this jacket makes me feel more comfortable with his time the lake. The bright color makes him visible to boaters. It is easy to size so he can wear it as he grows up. I especially like that it has a bit of floation at the neck level. It's perfect buoyancy.

Life Jacket

I made the straps as short/tight as I could her front legs kept sliding out! She can’t use it she kept sliding out and down in the water. I think the collar scratched

I made the straps as short/tight as I could her front legs kept sliding out! She can’t use it she kept sliding out and down in the water. I think the collar scratched her eye, I took her to the vet. She is on an antibiotic hoping the eye will heal in next ten days. Won’t buy another one like this. I have to look for a different style for sure. She loves swimming.

Front strap kept loosening even after tightening multiple times. Only way to keep life jacket tight enough to stay on my dog was to tie a knot - which wasn’t ideal

Front strap kept loosening even after tightening multiple times. Only way to keep life jacket tight enough to stay on my dog was to tie a knot - which wasn’t ideal. Ended up having to purchase another life jacket instead.

Movable

Fits my boy very well, he’s able to turn around in the seat of our boat without the life jacket getting caught. Makes him more aware that he needs to swim instead

Didn’t Work

Wouldn’t recommend. My dogs front leg kept coming out of the life jacket making her unable to swim. There were so many buckles and straps it was complicated to get

Nope, not worth it

Definitely not even worth the money. Super disappointed with the quality, as I liked this brand. The clips are only on one side of the life jacket, so it takes time

Definitely not even worth the money. Super disappointed with the quality, as I liked this brand. The clips are only on one side of the life jacket, so it takes time to get this thing on and off your dog. It doesn’t stay at the correct size because the buckles are bigger than the material. I thought it would be fine and he’d like it but I don’t feel comfortable putting my dog in the water, I’m afraid it would be a death trap
