If you regularly engage in boating, you’ve probably invested in some good-quality marine equipment by now, whether that is a boat anchor or a top-rated towable tube.There is a simple answer to this question and it’s — as best as possible. We’ve already put together a section on how you can put a dog life vest on your pooch, but here are some more tips. When it comes to floatability, most manufacturing brands rely on a combination of factors to make their life vests buoyant enough. You will come across some models that are made of nylon, a material that’s well-known for floating on top of the water instead of going to the bottom. Keep in mind that the wet fur adds to the overall dog’s body weight. Besides, it’s far easier for you to take your friend out of the water when grabbing onto two handles instead of one. 6. Closure If you aren’t feeling prepared to invest in a high-end model that also costs a fortune, this product should be right up your alley. As budget-friendly as it might be, it is particularly effective and it also takes the cake when it comes to buoyancy. Therefore, it can keep your furry friend safe at all times.

Another reason that contributes to swimming being such an exhausting activity for dogs is the weight that their wet fur adds to their body. As you know, wet fabrics and leathers are much heavier compared to dry ones. Therefore, dogs that have more fur will have a harder time swimming compared to short-haired breeds or those that hardly have any fur (such as Hairless Chihuahuas).What’s interesting about this unit is that it is available in just one color, but it is bright and visible. If you are worried about the vest being too heavy and cumbersome on your pooch when he or she gets out of the water, we’ll put your mind at ease. This model’s lightweight and made of neoprene. You have to measure your dog’s chest circumference as it is the most important part of his body. It is also the widest. Get a cloth tape measure and wrap it around your dog’s chest, meaning somewhere right behind his front legs.
