The anatomic shape of the vest gives it optimal wearing comfort. Available in XS (26cm), S (36cm), M (44cm), L (54cm) and XL (65cm), the vests fit over the head and are quickly clipped in place. An essential feature of the Life Vest is the ‘grab loop’ on the back used for lifting a dog out of the water. The vest also provides warmth and protection from abrasion.

Designed for dogs spending time on boats or near water, the right size of vest is determined by the weight of the dogs. For example, the XS Life Vest is for dogs up to 12Kg, and XL for dogs up to 65Kg. The vests are fully adjustable by way of nylon straps, quick release clips and Velcro fastenings. This safety device is also recommended for dogs that are training or playing in water, and for use during hydrotherapy sessions. Life Vest is in a striking red colour with reflective stripes. The vest also contains a ‘D’ ring attachment of a lead.
