The Big Eddy Float Coat Doggie Life Vest
![]()
I've been looking for this life vest for my 20-pound Jack Russell Terrier for the past year. Ruffwear has two life vests for sale and it took me a while to realize the difference between the two. I picked this life vest because there's a high probability that my dog will be on a boat in the Long Island Sound. This life vest is designed for ruff water conditions, ideal for the conditions we may face. Although my dog is a good swimmer, I realized that any dog would be unable to stay a float for a long period of time, especially in choppy water. This life vest will give me peace of mind when we're out on the sound. Since its presently winter, I've only been able to put the vest on her to insure a proper fit. Since my dog is between sizes, I picked the larger size. It a perfect fit. The price and fit were both excellent. I'm looking forward to the summer and having some water fun with her.
Best for Already Seasoned Water Dogs

the Portage lifejacket has a little more flotation and should be picked for dogs new to water or with less buoyancy or as just a standard lifejacket.If your dog is an active water dog, then I would recommend this big eddy lifejacket as this one is a little more streamlined if the dog is going to be wearing it for many hours/days.
