How to Measure Your Dog

  1. Chest Girth: Wrap a soft tape measure around the widest part of your dog’s chest, just behind the front legs.
  2. Neck Girth: Measure the base of your dog’s neck, where a collar would naturally sit.
  3. Back Length: Measure from the base of the neck to the start of the tail.

If your dog falls between two sizes, choose the larger one for comfort and safety.

Why Proper Fit Matters

Safety first: A poorly fitted vest may slip off or fail when lifting your dog out of the water.

Comfort: Dogs swim better and enjoy the water more when their vest fits correctly.

Durability: Correct sizing ensures the handle and straps can fully support your dog’s weight when wet.

Final Tips

  • Double-check sizing before ordering.

  • Make sure straps are snug but not restrictive.

  • Let your dog try the vest on dry land first before swimming.
