Outward Hound quality, very cute on, fits my dog comfortably. Only detail I’d note for a buyer is, the weight graph is a little off. My dog should be a large. However, his Outward Hound vest from last year doesn’t fit. This jacket fits well. He’s a Golden Retriever 78 lbs and I got the XL.

I adopted my dog when he was an older adult and I was unsure if he knew how to swim. Although he didn’t end up using the jacket to actually swim (I think it made him feel strange, he preferred to swim without it), he was happy to wear it on the boat and on land (he even took several naps while wearing it). The belly band is very comfortable and allows for a snug fit. The handles are very strong, my dog is about 80 lbs and I think I could lift him up by the handles if I had to. I can’t really attest to how well this jacket would help a dog float, but it seems like a well-designed product. It makes me feel better to know that he has it on should he unexpectedly find himself in the water. He’s worn it on three boating adventures and it still looks new!

My Lab is 12.5 years old and loves to swim but unfortunately, her old body can’t keep up with her still young mind and she tires easily. Despite being a life long excellent swimmer, she nearly drowned recently and I knew then that she has gotten to the point where she needs assistance to stay afloat after being in the water awhile. I read countless reviews on the various life jackets available on Amazon and ended up choosing the Outward Hound Nemo Ripstop jacket for her (now known as the Granby Splash).Sizing was spot-on: She measures 30″ from collar to base of tail and has about a 34″-35″ chest circumference and is within the 85-100lb range indicated on the size chart for the XL jacket. It fits well (but could easily fit an even larger dog).The jacket is well constructed and sturdy. We have two sets of stairs to go down to get to the water and I’ve used the jacket handles numerous times to steady the old girl and help her down the steps. The stitching is solid and I don’t have any concerns that the handles will fail any time soon.The jacket has a generous amount of velcro to keep it snug around her body as well as 3 adjustable straps with standard plastic life jacket clips to secure everything.The jacket doesn’t hinder her normal swimming movements and she appears to be very comfortable wearing it in (and out of) the water.If I ever have to buy another life jacket for a dog, I’d buy this one again.

My old boy swims like a spring chicken again while wearing this. Outward hound is also a Colorado company so please support innovation in America! Back to my review, the best fits him comfortably and he is back to jumping off the end of our boat dock with no hesitation. I ordered a large originally for my 85 pound dane/pointer mix and that was just barely to small. He has a large chest cavity I should mention. So I ordered the XL and it fits him with plenty of room to spare. He goes bonkers when we get it out, starts spinning in circles and whining. My dog is the type that would drown before he let his beloved stick get away and at 9 years old he wears down a bit faster now, so drowning becomes a real possibility. So this is piece of mind for me and it definitely helps him fight the current of the mighty Mississippi river with as much confidence as he had as a pup. If he gets tired he just sits there and floats.. that’s when his Dane side comes out lol. I would recommend this and any of outward hounds products to anyone with a dog. No they are not paying me to say that, although they should be!

Love love love this jacket. My dog is a timid boy but loves the water. He always gets a little too nervous when his feet can’t touch the bottom so I always worry his panic is going to cause him to drown. This life jacket is a game changer though. He is much more confident and he will actually swim! I don’t have to worry about him tiring out or jumping out of the raft when we are floating in the lake. The handle grips allow us to pull him back into the raft/boat easily as well.Sizing details: My dog is 95lbs (about the size of a large lab) and his chest circumference is 35” and the length of his spine is 27”. The extra large fits great! I wouldn’t go a size smaller if your pup is the same because it will be too small. You can adjust the size as well which is nice.

Great Product and would definitely buy it again! It’s very comfortable and my dog gets so excited when he sees his “Nemo” jacket, because he knows he’s going swimming! I used this when introducing my puppy to the water and it seemed to really help him feel comfortable in the water. The support feature under the dog’s chin/neck is great. We go to the ocean frequently, and this piece is helpful in keeping his head above the waves and avoiding water getting into his ears. It dries quickly and my dog doesn’t mind wearing it when he’s just playing in the sand either. Very easy to take on and off, even on a wiggly puppy. I like the dual handles for emergency lifting, makes me feel more comfortable taking him for boat rides, as well. I love the fun design. I did order up a size based on other reviews and am happy I went with the XL instead of the large. It’s left him some room to grow, but still fits snug.

Got this for my sister’s water loving goldendoodle and it has helped ease any anxiety about her drowning. She used to cough a lot during her swimming at the park but not since she’s worn the life jacket because she isn’t breathing I’m so much water. It keeps her above water and it’s super easy to carry around and put on. The handles make it very easy to pull her up onto the kayak whenever she’s swimming next to us. It is very well built and durable. We accidentally got too big of a size but the straps were super easy to adjust so that it was a snug fit. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend this jacket, and it is so super cute. We’ve gotten many compliments.

Excellent product. My bully loves the water – to the extreme, and she does not want to get out of the water. She’s 70-80 pds., so watching her swim is a teeth clencher because she’s all muscle, heavy which weights her own and fatigue faster. Not so enjoyable. We ordered an XL because she has a wide chest and body. It’s got a pretty good range of adjustments, so after that, it fit perfectly. LOVE the handles on top, so I can grab her out the water when she doesn’t want to get out. She swam around confidently and afloat for 2 hours in the pool and I was no longer clenching my teeth. It pretty much held her body level with her head, whereas, her body was sinking before and she was trying to keep her head afloat. Made the swimming experience more comfortable for her, and most of all – safer.

My dog is a TERRIBLE swimmer, but loves to splash in the water. He is also kind of farsighted as well as being a big, kinda dumb 10 month old St. Bernard. So I prefer to have him in a life jacket around water that comes up above his chest. It fits him pretty well and I really like the high visibility of it. The two handles are nice for snacking him out of the water a d dragging him away from the lake when it’s time to go home. He’s currently about 115 pounds and I’m honestly not sure how well it would actually keep him afloat if he were to fall in-house it’s made of a kind of Styrofoam-y material. But it’s super cute and works well for what we need.

Finally able to review this purchase because we bought it during the colder months and never got around to using it for a while. Can first say that it stores relatively flat, which is a bonus. Next, the colors and fish design are VERY bright and always get a laugh but I love it as a security feature. Lastly, it fits really well on our 95lb mastiff, the straps do not adjust/move on their own so we know it stays secure, and the head feature is a nice bonus.
