This vest was exactly what we were looking for. It is breathable, lightweight, and extremely easy to put on due to the magnetic closure. The straps really do stay on and only unlatch when you pull the little tab. It is a very impressive design. In addition, when we had some questions about adjusting the straps to fit our barrell shaped Golden Retriever, the customer service was excellent. We received a call with instructions right away. Thank you RuffWear!! Great Product.
