Great vest. I have a Border Collie who's a bit lean and the small was the right size for her.

The bright color allows our dog to always be seen in the water and keeps her afloat when water gets a bit choppy near shore. The handle is very durable for us to pick up our dog and the clip allows her to be on a screw stake on the beach but still get herself cooled off in the water safely.

The fit is great, going off the guide. Product looks and feels like it will last a long time. It doesn't restrict movement and the buoyancy is perfect for our girl at 40 pounds.

My dogs loved using this jacket. They don't usually like to wear harnesses or things like this, but after a few minutes they were used to it and happy to swim in it. It is east to adjust so that it fits snugly. My favorite feature is the handles on top of the jacket. I can pull up my 60 lb dogs easily from a kayak or paddle board and get them back on-board. Great product!

This is a well made, easy to get on life vest. My pup loves to swim but he’ll do it for hours so I was concerned about him overdoing it. We had a great time boating and swimming after we received the vest! He wasn’t bothered by it at all.

Great product. Perfect combination of style and safety. Each of my three dogs wear there vests whenever we’re spending time on the water.

We recently bought this lifejacket for our youngest pup about two weeks ago as her old one was getting worn out. Our older two (up until now) have never "needed" a lifejacket as they are very strong swimmers and do not get too close to the edge of the boat. Our youngest, however, hangs half off the boat yet hates water like it's poison. On our second boat ride out after getting this new life jacket, our youngest pup saw a bird fly by, fell into the water, and went under the boat. We of course popped right into neutral but there were about 5-10 seconds where we could not find our pup. She came up out of the water about 5 feet behind the boat, terrified and unsure of where to go. After calling her over, she swam to the boat and we lifted her in with the handle on the back of the harness. She was perfectly fine other than being terrified. I swear this lifejacket helped save her. She is not a strong swimmer and I believe if she had gone under the boat without anything on, she would not have been able to resurface and make the swim over to the boat after everything that occurred. We originally went with this life jacket because of the bright colors and the less bulky profile, and I am so glad we did. There is just enough float to give them help when they need it, but not too much to get in the way of their activities. Our pup can run around and splash in the water freely without any restrictions that other life jackets have but is also safe in any instance where extra buoyancy and visibility are needed. We have now bought life jackets for our two other pups and they will be wearing them on every boat trip or anytime we are near the water. We have always used Kurgo products, but after this boating incident, we are 100% Kurgo supporters. I believe our pup being here today, completely untouched, has a lot to do with the well-designed product produced to keep her safe, and I'm very glad it did.

We are avid performance boaters and consider life vests for our dogs as a must-have for safety. With other brands, I was going through 2 vests a year, per dog, because the quality was so poor. These vests are incredibly well made and I am very happy with the quality.
