I was in the process of teaching my pug puppy to learn to swim,and love water. I tried several different life jackets for dogs. None compared to the floatcoat. I'm happy to say that my pug is an avid swimmer and loves the water!! Very satisfied, worth the cost!!

Fit is great, seems like it will be what I was looking for, now when she is not running on a sled team and canoe season is on us will see how she likes it. -26 last night, so think open water will be awhile.

This is a extremely well made life vest for my GSD. We looked at other life vests and this one was by far the best.

My fiancé and I have 2 dogs and it's stressful to have them swim when they run into each other in the water so we thought the float coats would be a great idea. The float coats made both of them more comfortable in the water and they stopped trying to use each other to float.

My Border Collie/Aussie mix is right between the Small and Medium sizes per the sizing chart, and prefers a Medium in the Front Range Harness, but we went with the Small here and it's a perfect fit! I love the design of this coat as it leaves much more room for shoulders/front limb movement than other lifejackets I've tried and she finds it to be much more comfortable. Please make more fun colors and we'll get a second to use when the first is drying!

We love this life jacket! I was worried it would be too bulky for my dogs to comfortably move in while on the paddle board or boat, but they didn't mind wearing it at all. The colors are fun and make it easy to see them in the water, the handle was great when my dog jumped off the paddle board for her frisbee and couldn't get back on easily, and they could be active, or take a nap comfortably while wearing it. Next summer we will get one more for our other water-loving dog!

I took my little dog paddle boarding and she actually fell in the water. No problems swimming with it on and the handle made it so easy to reach her and pick her back up.

The jackets exceeded my expectations. The size chart is spot on. It was easy to make the final adjustments for the perfect fit. Quality material. Exceptionally made. The first swim was a breeze?as if the jacket were part of their body.

Great for dogs new to water or timid pups! Fits well and they can have fun in it on land too!

Great!! Just as easy to put on and off as our other float vest for Charlie. The float vests are top notch.

Both of our dogs (Shelties) now have their own float coat (S), and the products work as expected. All the careful design elements make for an excellent experience for both 4- and 2-legged adventurers. This is a solid investment, worth every penny. Thank you, Ruffwear.

We bought this for our 70lbs golden retriever and the fit of the large is perfect. It?s great quality and light weight. Very happy with this purchase.

He got used to it pretty quickly. He still is not greatly interested in swimming, but then he is not a water dog. However, he is a safe dog now.

The jacket has a good fit and is well made. It seems quite sturdy and it looks great. My dog had knee surgery and we live close to the sea, so we?re going in the water for rehab daily. The only thing that is not great about it is that she?s getting a rash from the material rubbing on her chest. Maybe that?s because we?re using it every day.

This is a nicely made product, but it is very overpriced, like everything else today I guess

I like this PFD a lot. The handle is perfect for pulling my doggo back in the kayak whenever she get's done with a quick swim. The straps are very easy to hook up which is especially important when you have a pupper who is shaking with excitement to jump in the water. Also, I really like how the excess strap length has a built in tie down. Lastly, my water doggo loves the PFD. It fits very well and doesn't get in her way when she is swimming. Plus she looks good wearing it and is proud as punch when she is shamefully strutting around saying "hi" to all of the other paddlers on shore. Definitely the best pupper PFD that I have every used.

My Bull Terrier can swim but gets tired staying afloat. The Float Coat allows him to paddle around much longer with the other dogs! Fits perfectly and doesn?t hinder his movement. He dives in it too!

Great fit, handle is excellent, she swims like a dolphin in it ?

It?s buoyant and reflective. I have a little fellow, a 4-pound Yorkie, so I had to buy the smallest size. It fits snugly around the neck and comfortably around his body. I like the color, fit, and feel of the Float Coat. So I am satisfied with my purchase.

Great. Fits well for him over the chest as a cane Corso 5 1/2 months over 65 pounds. Very confident swimming in it. Forgot to bring it swimming once and he did swim but wouldn?t go as far to retrieve his floating fris bee toy. He definitely gets a big confidence boost in vest! Thanks!

I tried this out when I took my dog swimming in a friends pool. It fit great and I love the handle. Used it to help direct her to the steps and also to help her out of the pool from the side. She swam great in it and I think she preferred swimming with it on since she is new to swimming. She was definitely more confident swimming with it on. Love the sharp looking style, looks as cool as it works.

Confident Vest
By Vicki B.
I know that Labradors are water dogs but my 11 month old lab hasn't spent much time since we got him in the water, let alone a lake. After hearing a vets stories of the numerous dogs he's heard of drowning because they tire in the water, stop paddling, and drown, I didn't want to take the chance. We still have him swim in the pool without the Float Coat Life Jacket but when in the lake he has it on. We can tell he's more eager to go a bit further to catch the float toy and manages to keep his...

Buoyancy for Bo
By Karen F.
Bo loves the water, but his Irish Setter build doesn?t help him to float. This life jacket has been great to help keep his body while paddling around. Fits great and doesn?t mind wearing it all. It also helps for me to know he?s a little bit safer in the water!
Buoyant, secure, reflective
For dogs that love to join their humans rafting, kayaking, boating, surfing, and paddle boarding, the Float Coat is the ultimate in canine flotation. Designed for dogs of all shapes and sizes, it's a premium, fully-featured life jacket that includes thoughtful details like a strong handle optimally positioned to lift dogs out of the water, a leash clip-in point under the handle, and reflective trim to boost visibility in low-light conditions.
What's New for 2021: A sleek, tailored silhouette and soft, flexible, PVC-free Gaia Foam come together to provide both excellent flotation and a plush, comfortable fit that moves with dogs as they swim and run.
