Here&#8217;s Why.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not convinced your pup&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/dogs\/10-reasons-your-dog-needs-a-life-jacket\">needs a dog life jacket<\/a>? Whether you&#8217;re planning on taking your pup boating, to the beach, hydro therapy, or the pool, it&#8217;s important to keep your dog safe. We&#8217;re here to break down just a few of the many reasons why you should add one to your pet supply arsenal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>1. Not all dogs can swim<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/dog-life-jacket-1200-1-1024x535-1.jpg\" alt=\"This corgi is wearing the Outward Hound Dawson Swim dog Life Jacket\" class=\"wp-image-13516\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Dogs with long barrels (or torsos), like corgis or dachshunds, tend to naturally have shorter legs. The density of their body in comparison to the size of their legs make paddling for these pups very hard work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally speaking, the smaller the dog, the more likely they are to need a dog life vest. Their cute little bodies just aren&#8217;t buoyant enough to stay afloat. In terms of puppies and extra small dogs, we strongly suggest a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/dog-gear\/life-jackets-and-swimming-supplies-for-dogs.html\">life jacket<\/a>&nbsp;for a couple of reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Most dog&nbsp;life jackets have grab handles on top, making it easy to assist dogs new to swimming while they get accustomed to the water.<\/li><li>The grab handle also provides a way to quickly and safely rescue your new pup in case of emergency.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2>2. Even good swimmers get tired<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Contrary to popular belief, not all dogs are great swimmers. It&#8217;s true that certain breeds like Labrador Retrievers were born to swim, but a lot of dogs don&#8217;t have that natural ability. Even Lab breeds get tired! That&#8217;s why a dog life jacket is essential for safety so they don&#8217;t get burnt out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>3. Extra support&nbsp;for dogs with physical health issues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/frenchielifejacket.jpg\" alt=\"french bulldog life jacket\" class=\"wp-image-16186\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Swimming can be excellent exercise for extra large dog breeds or dogs who are overweight as a result of having taken in a few too many treats. That being said, the extra weight can weigh them down in the water and they will likely tire easily. A life jacket with sturdy foam panels is a great way to support your dog while they are splashing their way back to their ideal shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many dog parents take their pups swimming as a form of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.petmd.com\/dog\/general-health\/how-hydrotherapy-and-swimming-can-benefit-dogs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">physical therapy<\/a>&nbsp;after surgery recovery. Lots of dogs also develop <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/dogs\/tplo-surgery\">joint issues<\/a> as they age. The floatation aspect of swimming takes the strain off their achy joints. A dog life vest can up their floating game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>4. Peace of mind knowing your dog is safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/dawson-swim-life-jacket-fitting-instructions.jpg\" alt=\"little dog in a dog life vest\" class=\"wp-image-8201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/dawson-swim-life-jacket-fitting-instructions.jpg 960w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/dawson-swim-life-jacket-fitting-instructions-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/dawson-swim-life-jacket-fitting-instructions-768x504.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to outfit your dog with the best&nbsp;dog life jacket, make sure it has the following safety features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><span class=\"notbold\">Above all,<\/span>&nbsp;<strong>buoyancy<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"notbold\">is a key factor in water safety for dogs. This is especially important when it comes to finding the right fit of a life jacket for your dog (more on that below).<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Visibility<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"notbold\">is also a must-have feature in your dog\u2019s life jacket. With the low profile of a dog while they are in the water, you\u2019ll want to invest in a high-quality&nbsp;life preserver with reflective strips and bright colors in order to help you spot them from a distance. (Psst &#8230; we just added six new colors!)<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Grab handles<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"notbold\">are another must-have feature of the perfect doggie flotation device. They not only allow you to assist your pooch while swimming, but they also provide you with an accessible way to lift your dog from the water in emergency situations.<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Flotation<\/strong> <span class=\"notbold\">,unlike buoyancy, will help to assist your dog in their natural ability to swim by allowing them to maximize their mobility in the water. Look for vests with flotation assistance especially in the belly sides and back of your dog.<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Adjustable straps<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"notbold\">will ensure a secure&nbsp;fit when fastening around the girth of your dog.<\/span><\/li><li><strong>Neoprene&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"notbold\">belly band and&nbsp;<strong>ripstop<\/strong>&nbsp;for sturdy, moisture-friendly material.<\/span><\/li><li>A&nbsp;<strong>D-ring<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"notbold\">to clip on a leash attachment in case you need to keep your pup close.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2>5. Let&#8217;s be honest&#8230;your dog looks cool!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-5070\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"595\" height=\"587\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/shadeys.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/shadeys.png 595w, https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/shadeys-300x296.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><figcaption>@cooleycam<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a fact of life. Dogs look adorable paddling in the water wearing a life jacket. However, your dog will not be able to float freely in the water if their jacket isn\u2019t sized correctly.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=cWBl25CWqaE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">This quick, 2-minute clip<\/a>&nbsp;shows you how to tell if your dog\u2019s jacket is fitting correctly. Key points include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>You should be able to comfortably fit your fingers between the body straps of the vest and your dog\u2019s body.<\/li><li>The chest strap should not constrict or caress the neck of your dog. It should be securely adjusted to support the chest of your dog.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&#8217;re confident in the fit of your dog&#8217;s float coat, it&#8217;s paws aboard for splashing fun in the sun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shop all of the life jackets like the popular Outward Hound Granby dog life jacket featured in this post&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/dog-gear\/life-jackets-and-swimming-supplies-for-dogs.html\">on our website<\/a>, Amazon, Chewy, and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ready to hit the beach, lake or pool in your new life jacket?
