Top 10 Reasons to Buy a Dog Life Jacket - Reason #8

|



Your Dog is a Swimmer.




You might be asking yourself:

  • Why does my dog need a dog life jacket if she can already swim? or

  • Why should I buy a dog life jacket when my Portuguese Water Dog was bred to be in the water? or

  • My poodle has webbed feet for goodness sake, does she really need a dog life jacket to help her swim?


Well, a dog life jacket will make swimming easier for you dog and can even save their life. Much like people, even the strongest doggy swimmers can go too far or get caught in a strong current. In fact the Boat US Foundation reported:

"No matter how well a dog can swim under supervision, any dog can drown," reports Georgia Molek, a veterinarian we contacted through the American Animal Hospital Association. "All dogs can get fatigued, too, and/or become disoriented."

So if your dog is a swimmer, then a dog life vest would provide her with buoyancy and support that will make swimming easier and save her if she gets tired.
