Two parts to this review: the product itself and the customer service

This lifejacket works great! Fits my pup perfectly, helps keep him afloat and gives me peace of mind. I had previously bought him another lifejacket and whenever I put it on, he wouldn't move. Just stood there frozen. But with this life jacket, he is happy to jump, run, swim and roll around!

I love the fact that it has a d-ring to tether him off, as I don't like using just his collar especially since his neck is so large he could just slip off. And the handle on the back worked great for trying to help him onto the paddle board--we need a little more practice standing up there.

Second! The customer service! When I ordered this lifejacket, I had a camping trip coming up and made sure to order it in time to get here well before then. Unfortunately, my original order got shipped to another state so I contacted the people at Paws Republic, who were the ones who fulfilled my order. Katie was so helpful and amazing, she overnight shipped another lifejacket to me, getting here the day before we left. It was such a great experience, it's the whole reason I'm writing this review!

This is a quality lifejacket for any adventure dog!

Very nice and strong

Bought this for our aging Pit/Rott mix who loves to swim, but tires easily. We purchased the XL and it's been working great. He LOVES swimming"¦ even more now that he has his life jacket and we have the peace of mind knowing he's safe if he gets too far from shore. Good quality, no complaints from our pup.

The media could not be loaded. Like product a lot except there is a very wide range from small to medium (20-50lb instead of 5 lb increments). I bought medium for a 20 lb corgi puppy who will likely grow another 5 lb and it is extremely large on him. Corgis have a unique body shape to say the least so we are always on the cusp of toys/small and medium dogs. His 20lb body doesnt run too comfortably right now that it is set on the tighest setting and jacket bulges at corners but I am hopeful that a few more pounds and a bit more use will make it more comfortable. That said he seems to love wearing it because he knows we are going to the "special park" where there is swimming whenever I bust it out of the trunk of the car. Seems just as durable as the outward hound one I bought for my other corgi in large (which didn't have a red color option). Top strap is a bit less sturdy looking but I don't anticipate lifting him by strap. Bought it to keep him from accidentally rolling when turning sharply in local stream and to give a little more confidence and safety while swimming with larger dogs around who make waves that can overwhelm the little ones.

Update. I bought this in 2014. Since then my boy has grown up to be nearly 4o lbs. Jacket is awesome and has held up incredibly well for almost a decade. He is extremely aquatic so it has gotten a lot of use. Upgraded to 5 stars due to value for money. Highly recommend.

Perfect size not too bulky. I'd say it's a little square... Could fit more flush, but for the price it's perfect on my mini doodle.
