Granby Splash Pink Dog Life Jacket, Small

It fits my little pug perfectly, much to his dismay. The carry handles are essential for us as it allows us to have full control over our dog and we could loop the leash around it if needed. It kept our dog afloat in the lake, the one issue we had was he kept raising his paws too high to doggy paddle and they would get stuck in his neck hole. This might be a skill issue in our case, as he was quite frantic in the water and definitely not calm. (He was removed from the water shortly after realizing he was not enjoying himself and had a much better time supervising on land. We will try again in a smaller body of water to give him swim lessons. Lol.) But that was why we bought this in the first place, we weren’t confident our 2-braincell having pug wouldn’t drown in shallow water, and we were right so this is a must have for us.

I have an Olde English Bulldogge who sinks like a rock. She does good to tread water at all. Because of this the water is not her friend which is a problem since she goes fishing with me on the boat and I take her to the beach. She has a deep chest and a narrow waist and I stuck to the size chart which said the size she needed could support up to a 70lb dog. That made me nervous because she is around 65-70 lbs. I took the chance and we hit the lake today. Like others said the straps have plenty of room to adjust and I was able to get a good snug fit without a problem. Then before getting in the water I used the lift straps to make sure all would hold. The jacket did great and feels very sturdy and well made letting me lift her with ease. Next we got in the water and to my amazement she started swimming all around the boat. It completely supports her and allows her to float with no effort on hr part. For the price this is an outstanding product that gives me piece of mind that she is safe on the water plus I can now let her cool off in deeper water and lift her back into the boat without hurting her or me. As for her wearing it. She doesnt seem to mind at all and almost seemed to enjoy it. She didnt chew or bite at any part of it and it did not rub or irritate her in any area. She had it on today from 6am to 330pm and showed no signs of being bothered by it. She also did not get hot in it and it actually keep her cool since it stayed nice and damp from being in the water. She has full movement and seemed nice and comfy laying around as I was fishing. Also it is a good color and if she was to fall in it is very high visibility to make a rescue easy. Dont hesitate. This product is well worth the money and more. Update(10-17-14)- Today I went fishing and while on my bass boat my trolling motor took a break. While working on getting it fixed my bulldog went to the back of the boat and got a drink from the lake. While Im sitting with bits and pieces of trolling motor on the front deck I heard a big splash. I look up to see my dog was gone. She is not a ballerina and slipped in to the lake with her clumsy self. Luckily she had on her vest and very calmly bobbed in the water for a second and then began to swim around. I let her take a couple laps around the boat while I got the trolling motor bits safe and then lifted her back on board by the vest straps. If I did not have this vest today I bet I would have had a big mess by needing to move quickly to save my rock of a dog. Also I thought that if she was to get to far from the boat and the fact my trolling motor was down I would have had to either use the main motor to snag her, which would not be very safe, or get wet myself to get her. I am very glad I bought this vest and today it certainly paid for itself. She has used it many times now on the lake and pool. It still looks new and is holding up extremely well. She has yet to protest wearing it and really seems to be confident around the water now.

This life vest fits my standard-sized poodle really well. It has multiple adjustment points, which made it easy to get a secure, customized fit. Once it was on, it felt very stable and not bulky. I feel very confident using this with him in the water and it gives me great peace of mind. Overall, very happy with the fit and quality.

I originally got a large for my old and arthritic 50# shepherd/heeler mix in 2015. I started to get worried that she would jump or fall off the float tube or follow me when I was paddling around the lake and wouldn't be able to make it back to shore, so I bought her one of these. It gave me some peace of mind and I started taking her with me more instead of leaving her at camp. I tried it on my new shepherd mix when I first adopted him in October 2018 and it just fit (he was about 70#). After a winter of fetch and long walks he had put on about 10# of muscle and the large didn't fit (it's been a while but I think his girth was 32"). According to the size chart the large should fit dogs up to 85# with a 32" girth, but there was no way those buckles were snapping together. I ordered an XL for him and it fits great. He loves to go kayaking with me and I feel much more secure knowing he has it on. I still have the large size and it's still in great shape. I plan on using it for my 60# lab mix when it gets warm enough. I'll update this review if I discover an issue when we start going on the water again. I really like these life jackets and have not directly experienced any issues with quality or performance but am only giving 4 stars because: 1) I don't think there's any chance that the front flap will hold the dogs head out of the water if needed. It might work for small dogs, but for large dogs it just doesn't look reasonably possible. This is unfortunate as it's one of the advertised qualities that initially attracted me to this product. 2) I don't think the grab handles would hold up very well with use as they are just sewn to the top of the jacket and are not part of the straps that go under the dogs chest. Some reviewers have noted this issue, but I think the packaging says they should only be used in an emergency. So maybe not the best option if you have a larger dog that you'll need to lift into boat or onto dock repeatedly. Again, probably fine for small dogs as the product quality seems decent. I just think it could've been designed better. 3) Sizing issue as noted above. Update 02/13/22: Both jackets still holding up well. The one I bought in 2015 looks as good as the one I got in 2019. Still only use for fetching in water and kayaking. I do not use the handles to lift the dogs, they mostly just wear them while running about. I'm back today to order one for my 4-legged niece who loves to swim and run about, but gets stiff and sore very quickly. Also adding pictures, hope someone finds them helpful. Black and white dog is 60-65#, girth 30". Black and tan dog is about 80#, girth 32". Second picture is to show difference is size. Top life jacket is large (old style) and lower is extra large. Pink is medium I received by mistake.

I'm so happy I took a chance in ordering this life jacket for our dog! We decided to take our fur baby on a boat ride for the 1st time and needed one quickly. Shipping was incredibly fast! My package was on the doorstep first thing the next morning after placing my order late the night before. Our 100lb almost 2 yr old bloodhound has a 34" girth (with more room needed to grow) and I was nervous it wouldn't fit him right because of all his skin folds, but I was wrong. It's perfect! I love the handles too. I'm not sure how well he floats with it because he didn't go into the water, but I'm sure it'll be really good. The life jacket is a sug fit around his entire body. Including around his neck so his head wouldn't go under the water. Our Jasper actually loves wearing it! He knows when this cute little floating device comes out, we're about to go out on the boat & have some fishing fun!

I bought this life jacket for my small dog before a lake trip, and it gave me total peace of mind. The fit was perfect (size small), and the adjustable straps made it easy to get snug without being uncomfortable. The bright pink color is adorable and also very visible in the water, which made spotting her easy. The buoyancy is excellent—she floated confidently and had no problem paddling around. The strong grab handle on the back came in handy when lifting her in and out of the boat. I also appreciate how lightweight it is; she could run around on land without it bothering her. It feels sturdy, the stitching is well-done, and after several uses it still looks brand new. Definitely a must-have for water safety if you take your pup swimming or boating. ✅ High buoyancy, keeps dogs safe in the water ✅ Adjustable fit and secure straps ✅ Bright, visible color ✅ Durable with convenient grab handle Highly recommend for anyone who wants both safety and style for their dog on the water.

This worked perfect for my baby Golden Retriever. She was learning how to swim and I wanna make sure that she was safe. I love the handle on the back of it cause I could easily pick her up in case she wasn’t doing well. The bright color is awesome because you can see them everywhere when they’re in the water. It fit her really well. She was about 15 pounds when we used it.

Product is super cute and it fits perfect on my 95lbs pup. But unfortunately she’s only wore it less than five times and just today I pulled on one of the handles just to direct her and it ripped. The sides are also ripping little by little. Disappointed I genuinely thought it would last her at least a year so at least 12 wares if anything lol
