"My dog doesn’t like to wear things but she likes this life jacket! I just started kayaking with my 70 lbs husky/german shepherd and this life jacket puts me at ease."

Dog Pro Approved...simply the best. I’ve worked in canine behavior for over 20 years, so I’m picky about my pup’s gear; their response to wearing it, ability to move freely, and of course safety & quality.

Nice fitting life jacket and fits my oddly shaped bulldog perfect. Ow she can float and swim instead of immediately sinking

Best dog life jacket ever! This life jacket was incredibly useful, durable, secure, safe, and stylish! I am able to have so much fun with my dog swimming, paddle boarding, and just have fun in the water knowing that my dog is going to always be safe.

Jinjer loves her new float coat but then again all ruffwear products we’ve bought are A+.She went across the lake and back and didn’t limit her movement at all.
