Keeps our dog warmer so our lab mix can swim in the intracoastal all year long.
I got this for my German Shorthaired Pointer (Rio) for rafting the cold rivers we run in Colorado. He usually wears a neoprene hunting style vest under his PFD that just covers his core. I like that this jacket has a little more coverage over his rump and arms for a little extra warmth and the color helps him be more visible as he romps the banks. I paired it with a Confluence life jacket from Ruffwear and love the combo. Still haven't floated with it yet, but the fit accommodates his large chest well and the build seems high quality like everything else we've ever ordered from Ruffwear.
My border collie has more energy than sense and loves to swim all year round. This jacket keeps him from shaking a little longer when the water temps are down! I I think his new little sister is going to need one now, too.
After measuring before ordering, this fit my pup great! He's still growing, and he should have room to grow a bit more. I'm hoping this will help him stay warm in cold water adventures this winter, as he tends to be a bit of a chilly guy!
It fits great, so I know it will help keep her warm next time we go to the lake!
