Well built, adjusts le
I reviewed a lot of dog life vests. I wanted to avoid those with a lot of Velcro which would entrap my dogâs hair. This vest is well constructed. I like the two handles on the back (one vertical and one horizontal) which gives you options to grab and pull your dog out of the water. The underside of the vest consists of foam padding on each side which are secured by 2 straps and buckles. On my dog, the two foam sides donât meet in the center under her belly, but thereâs still plenty of buoyant support. The best part is no Velcro, and itâs easy to put on with the two buckles. Thereâs a band that goes over the head and supports the front of the neck/chest. It is adjustable too. Check out my pictures to get a better idea of how it works. A good choice for a dog life vest! Finally, I just wanted to add that the highly rated Ruffwear life vest is VERY similar but it’s double the price, and it has a very small piece of velcro that is used to secure the underside straps, which could irritate your dog (not likely though). I personally think that the Kurgo is a much better value.

Brewski Approved!
Glad someone suggested this life jacket for my dog! So far, it seems to be high quality, with a nice vibrant color for visibility! My active/strong swimming pup can easily manuover in it and it also aides him when he becomes tired on our long kayak trips. The handles are great for assisting Brewski back on the kayak. Size chart is accurate- Brewski is between 55-60 lbs with a 30 inch chest and the medium fits perfect! Would recommend this product to others!!!

So far so good; may need to do a bit of sewing
I’ve only had my dog take it for a “ride” once, so I’ll update this review at a later point. So far, though, I really like the quality of the life jacket. The construction looks sturdy and I love the colors (reminiscent of Scooby Doo, actually). My dog is small (~15 lbs), girth under the armpits is about 20 in but she has a fairly narrow waist. The fit is okay; the collar portion is well constructed and one side will slide into a sleeve. Although there’s a limit to the length of that sleeve, you can still scrunch it up a bit if you need the collar to be narrower. Because of my dog’s dimensions, the rearmost buckle needed to be adjusted tighter than the one that goes right under the armpits.

Great for beach and pool!
My dog does not like water, so I bought her this life jacket for our recent beach vacation since I didn’t know how strong of a swimmer she would be. I was pleasantly surprised to find that she LOVES the beach, which made her life jacket even more important! She is used to wearing a harness, so the life jacket wasn’t a big adjustment for her, but she definitely was able to run around, jump, dig, and try to catch sandpipers and ghost crabs in it without any problems. She seemed comfortable and the life jacket was secure during all of her beach shenanigans and during her brief dips in the ocean and the pool. Also, she got lots of compliments on how cute she looked!

Excellent quality & fit
We bought the large and itâs true to size – fits our 65lbs bernadoodle perfectly! Heâs not the best swimmer but with this on we couldnât get him out of the water.

The best of the best
For such a long time I’ve been a fan of the 20$ ones on Amazon that do the job. My dog is a great swimmer so this just for safety and to help keep head above water because of her shape. She’s lightning in the water now. The construction of this is top tier. We have harnesses and other accessories from Kurgo. Finally converted after 2 other replacements to vests which tear at the seam and just fall apart.When you use Kurgo your never worried about quality issues.

Dog life vest
My puppy loved it and was less afraid of the water. Very comfortable fit.

Male Labs – Size up for neck and chest. Handle will not support lifting a wet dog.
Choose a Size up for Male Labs / The handle is not secure enough to lift the dog out of the water.I have VERY fit, low fat, young male labs ( 72# and 105#). The recommended measurements were one size too small in the neck and chest. All other attachments fit, if let out to the maximum length. For the 72# dog I got a medium based on sizing recommendations, he is really a size large in the neck and chest. For the 105# dog I ordered a Large, based on sizing recommendations, but he is really is an X-large. The issue of sizing is in the neck and upper chest (for male Labs). Fit Labs have big neck and chest areas, and a narrow waist.There is no way that you can lift a 70# + dog by the supplied handles without destroying the outer nylon material. The handles are sewn to the outer rip stop material and rips immediately. Basically, you can MAYBE free-lift a dog into a boat, one time, to save the dog, but the vest will then be torn up and unusable. Probably doable for lifting smaller dogs around 10#’s or less.If you need to lift your dog out of the water more than once, go with the Ruffwear jackets. They are much more bulky, but much more sturdy and durable. All of our boating dog owner friends use Ruffwear jackets for their dogs so that they can pull the dogs onto the boat by the handle. I was thinking that with Lab water dogs, we just needed a jacket for safety, but we really need to be able to pull / lift them into the boat as well.Btw… the vests come with a rear attachment that serves as a handy bottle opener!!!! Great gimmick idea, except that boaters should know that glass bottles around water is not a good idea (Illegal at our AZ lakes). 🙂

Es un excelente producto, ya tengo un Chaleco Salvavidas S para mi Jack Russell, de acuerdo a las medidas del XL le quedaria a mi perra de talla Grande (Weimaraner), pero le quedo MUY grande, asi que devolvà el producto y actualmente estoy esperando el reembolso para comprar una talla mas pequeña y adecuada a su cuerpo.Pero en resumen, tiene buenas costuras, si funciona, es facil de poner y el color es muy brillante. Entonces en el agua si se ve bien! Teniendo la talla correcta para mi perro, volveré a calificar el producto.
Excelente, muy buena calidad y ligero, cumple con las expectativas –
La talla es correcta, la calidad muy buena, y se le dio el uso para el que fue comprado

Jack Russel 7-8 kg, small one. Fit good, we cross the 2 strap on belly for better adjustment. She swim good with it. Her head are less in water with it so less water go inside her ears. I recommend it.
