Summer is the perfect opportunity to spend some extra time with your dog. You can bring him along whether you head to the beach, the lake, fishing, or just hanging out at the pool. Of course, it’s still important to be mindful of water safety, even with a dog!
I love these doggy life jackets. Available in sizes from XXSmall to Large, the sturdy vests have brightly colored prints and reflective strips for easy sighting, and a handle on top for fast retrieval. They also have a mesh underbelly which allows water to drain away from the dog, and heavy duty Velcro to keep everything in place.
Dogtopics.com also offers some general water safety tips, including being mindful of what your dog is drinking, rinsing your dog off with fresh water after they’ve been in the water, and keeping your dog hydrated and rested.
