Overview
The Float Doggy uses a patented combination of structural design and materials to provide a secure, ergonomic, comfortable fit and balanced flotation. We collaborated with experts in buoyancy, canine anatomy and bio-mechanics to build the Float Doggy.
WE RESOLVED TWO BIG ISSUES WITH CONVENTIONAL DOG LIFE JACKETS
-
Conventional jackets are open between the front legs, which can cause the heavy head and chest area to sink and fall through that gap - so we closed it with a continuous articulated chest and belly panel
-
The enclosed design is better for buoyancy, security and comfort, particularly when being lifted
-
Flotation in the under-chest panel supports the heavier shoulder area and helps keep the head higher in the water
-
Attaching the handle to the full harness supports the dog fully, secures them firmly and eases pressure on soft issue
Trimmed And Articulated Panels To Create A More Streamlined Fit
-
Conventional jackets are mostly rectangular with a curve around the neck because that’s cheaper to produce, but rectangles don’t fit around the curves of a dog and single piece buoyancy foam is stiff and awkward
-
Every panel on the Float Doggy is curved to mirror the shape of a dog's body
-
Each Float Doggy panel is articulated for flexibility to improve comfort and movement and give streamlined fit
-
Float Doggy panels uses different densities of foam to best balance flotation and reduce bulk
- Independent front and rear adjustments allow for different body shapes
- For best visibility in and around the water we made the top panels brighter and placed waterproof reflective tape on the handle right on top for beacon-like visibility
Inspired by our own kayaking and wake boarding vests, Float Doggy is created in collaboration with experts in buoyancy and canine anatomy and biomechanics.
Our patented combination of structural design, material choices and careful construction are designed to provide a secure, ergonomic and comfortable fit and balanced flotation for joyful, confident doggy paddling.

We addressed two big issues
with conventional dog
life jackets:
Enclosed The Harness Between The Front Legs
- Conventional jackets are open between the front legs, which can cause the heavy head and chest area to sink and fall through that gap - so we closed it with a continuous articulated chest and belly panel
- The enclosed design is better for buoyancy, security and comfort, particularly when being lifted
- Flotation in the under-chest panel supports the heavier shoulder area and helps keep the head higher in the water
- Attaching the handle to the full harness supports the dog fully, secures them firmly and eases pressure on soft issue

- Conventional jackets are mostly rectangular with a curve around the neck because that’s cheaper to produce, but rectangles don’t fit around the curves of a dog and single piece buoyancy foam is stiff and awkward
- Every panel on the Float Doggy is curved to mirror the shape of a dog's body
- Each Float Doggy panel is articulated for flexibility to improve comfort and movement and give a streamlined fit
- Float Doggy panels uses different densities of foam to balance a dog’s natural buoyancy and reduce bulk
- Independent front and rear adjustments allow for different body shapes
- For best visibility in and around the water we made the top panels brighter and placed waterproof reflective tape on the handle right on top for beacon-like visibility
