Review on JuJubak Ripstop Dog Life Jacket - Adjustable, Reflective, and Buoyant Life Vest for Dogs - Ideal for Boating and Swimming by Tyra Smith

I'm having a hard time finding a life jacket for our big dog. I measured it 3 times and ordered according to these measurements. And yes, I've decided on the next metric. Very large. And it doesn't even come close to him. It was too small in the chest and neck and too big in the waist. So I doubt they would fit him properly even if they were a larger size. It annoys me so much that there don't seem to be life jackets for large dogs. He has severe arthritis in his hips and knees so a life jacket would come in handy. But I don't even know where to order from. He only weighs 100 pounds, but his chest and neck are huge and his waist is small. He's a Siberian Husky mix, but his build is taller than most huskies. He's pretty skinny so I'm guessing he's just big boned? I do not know. We actually did a DNA test on him because his vet thought he might be St. Bernard mixed. It is not so. And with what it's mixed in, doesn't help answer why it's so big. Maybe it's just a genetic defect or something. Anyway, I'm just disappointed that there aren't life jackets for big dogs. Do you think the bigger the dogs, the less tired they get? Why don't they like to swim? That giant dogs swim much easier? So, for the tirade, but it's so frustrating. Guess I have to keep looking. As for the quality of this vest. it's quite thin and should get thicker as it gets bigger. We brought our labrador retriever neighbors to test this vest. In my opinion, it did not provide sufficient lift. It didn't seem to help her swim better. This may be fine for smaller or even larger dogs with less weight, but should provide more buoyancy for larger, stronger dogs. Our human life jackets are three times thicker than these. So I think dog life jackets should be of the same quality and standards as the life jackets they make for humans. And I just don't think it supports life jackets. But otherwise well done. High quality materials and good workmanship. It's just not as supportive as I think it should be. At least it's fun and looks trendy.
