Pooch Gear: Boater’s Best Friend needs PFD too

Pooch Gear

Apr 11, 2024

Most dogs can swim but they have more fun in the water and you have greater peace of mind when, just like you and your kids, they wear a PFD. The Salus Skippy dog vest uses Cordura nylon for durability. Flotation under the belly and chest give greater buoyancy, lift and comfort against the belly-lifting straps. Tummy-saver padding helps protect active dogs. Two-handle straps make it easy to grab and lift your heavier playmate out of the water. They are Canadian Coast Dog Approved and come in a variety of sizes to correctly fit your pet.

Hiding Out in Belize

By Zuzana Prochazka
