The best life jacket for your dog is also the most expensive! Totally worth it, though.
I have a 60 lb mixed breed dog that I take to rivers, lakes, and the beach and I would never think of putting her in that type of water without a ruff wear float coat, even though she is a very good swimmer. I've seen a strong swimming dog without a coat start to sink from exhaustion, and a life vest ensures the dog will work less hard keeping themselves afloat so they can play in the water for much, much longer. If you need to pull your dog into/onto a boat, the handle of the top of the coat is designed to hold your dog's weight and make it easy to grab them and pull them in. Additionally, the foam coat completely wraps around the dog's belly and buckles on the side, so I know i'm not hurting her when her full weight is on the belly of the coat when I pick her up (lots of other coats just have bare straps underneath). The coat is designed so that it doesn't interfere with the dog's swimming action, which is nice. This is our second ruff wear coat (but our first with this...
Simple, effective and very well designed
I was hesitant to spend this much money on a PFD for my dog. After using it I'm really glad I did. The vest is really well designed and is easy to put on and take off. Our dog didn't seem to mind wearing it at all. We bought this vest so we could start taking our dog with us when we go kayaking. He was already a strong swimmer but this gave him the confidence to stay in the water for most of our trip. What I really appreciate about this vest is there are no exposed straps or buckles. Everything is concealed and neatly tucked away. This was very important when we needed to lift him out of the water and into the kayak. The other jackets we looked at all had the straps and buckles exposed along the sides which could have easily gotten caught on something when pulling him into the kayak.

The vest is very well made and I expect it will stand up to years of use. The material is very durable and it is highly visible and reflective so it can be seen from a great distance...
