Getting your pup ready for water adventures has never been easier or faster.

Ready for a Day at Sea
Follow these simple steps for a safe swim
Slide Over Head
Place the vest over your dog's head so the chest plate rests comfortably against their front.
Secure Belly Straps
Wrap the two adjustable straps under the belly and click the quick-release buckles.
Adjust for Snugness
Tighten the straps until the vest is snug but allows two fingers of space for comfort.
Check Chin Flap
Ensure the front support flap is positioned correctly under the jaw for head elevation.
Attach Your Leash
Clip your leash to the metal D-ring if you are walking near the dock or currents.
