    Well worth the money!

    While considering life jackets half the cost of this one, my decision was that my precious little 10-pound Shih Tzu is worth any expense for his life. Mercy, the Ruffwear Life Jacket is well worth the money! It is very well made, it fits my mini Shih Tzu like a glove, & it has excellent features as follows. The handle is perfectly positioned & there is a safety loop, conveniently & nicely out-of-the-way, underneath it. The 2 adjustable belly straps each have a perpendicular Velcro strap that secures the excess strap length out of the way so it looks tidy, & doesn't dangle. The neck opening is adjustable & it has a protective sleeve that both guards the hair/fur around the neck, & provides a place to slide the excess strap so it does not dangle. The Ruffwear Life Jacket is very easy to put on & take off, & it must be comfortable as my little guy helps to put it on by poking his head through the neck hole for me! Thank you!

    BEST BUY! Don't waste ur money on others!

    The 1st life jacket I bought for my Frenchie tore up within a year. I was constantly adjusting it. The next one didn't have enough buoyancy to help her back to the surface quickly enough for my liking. So, I researched jackets & settled on this one from Ruffwear. When she dives straight down on top of the toy, it pops her straight back up. It fits her perfectly. I fitted it to her the first time & nothing slipped. This jacket is safer & stronger. Definitely worth the investment.

    This life jacket exceeded my expectations!

    This life jacket was a great purchase for my dog. It fit securely and was easy to adjust. The sturdy handle on top made it easy to help her out of the lake and the bright color made her easy to spot from a distance.Most importantly, it didn't restrict her movement. She was able to swim comfortably and seemed confident wearing it. The material feels durable and well-made, and it dried quickly after use.
