Keep your four-legged companion safe in and around the water with the new Red Original Dog Buoyancy Aid. Ergonomically designed to support your dog in the water and give them a positive swimming position. Packed full of features and made using durable, tear-resistant Cordura® fabric, the Red Original Dog Buoyancy Aid is available in 5 different sizes to cover all breeds.
KEEP YOUR FOUR-LEGGED COMPANION SAFE AROUND THE WATER
Whether you're a paddleboarder or surfer, kayaker or sailor, staying safe on the water should be the number one priority of any water sports enthusiast. Personal flotation devices like the Red Original Airbelt PFD are commonly used to help keep people safe, but we wanted to make sure that there was something for our four-legged friends as well.
The Red Original Dog Buoyancy Aid has been designed to help dogs maintain a positive and comfortable swimming position. It achieves this thanks to strategically placed foam of varying thicknesses that line the buoyancy aid throughout. This foam supports key areas of a dog's body and allows them to conserve energy, prolonging their life should they get into trouble in the water.
Professionally designed by water sports enthusiasts who also happen to be passionate pet lovers, the Red Original Dog Buoyancy Aid provides support without hindering movement or manoeuvrability. The wide front leg opening allows for free, unimpaired movement and we have used Cordura® Fabric throughout to ensure there is enough ‘give'. Having said that, while it is indeed flexible, Cordura® Fabric was chosen as it is also hard-wearing, tear-resistant, puncture-resistant, abrasion-resistant, and – needless to say – waterproof.
Clearly built to last, our Dog Buoyancy Aid has been packed full of thoughtful features that make them convenient for both pet owners and the dogs that wear them. One great example of such a feature is the four easy-to-use grab handles, which can be used to quickly and easily lift wearers out of the water in any situation. An integrated dog lead attachment is also included for when you want to get your dog under control around the water, as well as reflective detailing so you can spot them in the water during low light.

Read lessI purchesed the buoyancy aid for my dog, excellent fit & well made. Once he got in the water you could see the difference in his body position, with him being supported higher in the water.
Once he was in the water it was harder to get him out than it usually is.
Sturdy life vest though I thought it would support the chest a little bit better in a heavy/bulky dog like a French Bulldog. The dog still has to make lot of effort to keep head out of water which seems that hyperextends the neck considerably! Wouldn’t advise to be used in prolonged periods of time. A bit pricey.
Bought this buoyancy aid in small for my daughter's cocker spaniel. Tried the medium but it was far too big; the small is a great fit and she tells me it's amazing. Obviously he loves the water, being a spaniel, but this gives my daughter more confidence when they're surfing etc and her dog stays in the water longer as he expends less energy and it probably keeps him warmer.
It looks and fits well. I’ve not been out on the water with it yet.
The lifejacket is well made and fits our cockapoo well. He seems to like wearing it. Wanted to buy a lifejacket that will give me peace of mind that he will be safe on the water and this has achieved this
