Keep your four-legged companion safe around the water.
Designed to help dogs maintain a comfortable swimming position and conserve energy, prolonging their life, should they get into trouble in the water. It achieves this thanks to strategically placed foam of varying thicknesses that line the buoyancy aid throughout. Using flexible Cordura® fabric, the wide front leg openings allow for unimpaired movement, whilst maintaining a hard-wearing, tear-resistant waterproof durability.
Built to last, our Dog Buoyancy Aid has been packed full of thoughtful features that make them convenient for both pet owners and the dogs that wear them. One great example is the four easy-to-use grab handles, which can be used to lift dogs out quickly and easily of the water in any situation. An integrated dog lead attachment is also included, as well as reflective detailing so you can spot them in the water during low light.
Care instructions: Wash with fresh water after use and hang dry.

An excellent fit for our little Cairn terrier. She loves the water and this will give extra security when playing in the great outdoors. A great fit and grab handle seems robust.

My dog was just on the borderline between Medium and Large, but decided to go for the medium and it is spot on (25 kg very fluffy breed) She is deep chested and I am very pleased with how the straps adjust so it really does fit perfectly.
I compared many brands before opting for RED, but what swung my choice was the chest piece..she feels secure and I am confident that I can pull her out of the water should she fall in!

Our dog has always been a keen swimmer, but since having one of his front legs amputated three months ago he seems to swim a bit lower in the water. We wanted a buoyancy aid which would provide more buoyancy in his chest area, and also one with a secure grab handle for in case he started to struggle. This one is superb - it definitely ticks all the boxes. It fits snuggly and securely, our dog seems very comfortable wearing it, it provides lots of support and has several strong lifting handles. We’ll done Red - you’ve designed a great one here!
