Although swimming is an instinct for many dogs…don’t believe me? Have you ever held your dog over a pool and seen how they kick their legs without even touching the water? Sorry fellow animal lovers, it was a test in my teenage years. In any case, pools, lakes, hey any deep body of water can still be very dangerous to 
your precious pooch. They can become tired from overheating or overexertion, and can become disoriented. Not able to remember how to get in or out of the water. In fact, recent statistics show that 1 out of every 1,027 pets drown each year in the US alone.
Now thanks to some very clever and caring companies, your dog can be protected with their very own life jacket. Should your dog decide to take a plunge, a life jacket will enable them to stay above water and come right back to you, instead of you having to jump in after them.
This is an especially needed product for dogs of boat owners since most boat owners would never leave Fido at the dock! Most dogs, especially Labradors, love to take dives off of the side of the boat, but it's hard for them to judge the depth or temperature of the water. Water that's too cold can cause hypothermia (unlike humans, dogs can be more sensitive to cold water, say from the Ocean).
Most slip on easily with nylon adjustable straps, quick-release buckles and heavy-duty Velcro around the neck and belly and can run about $24 to $50 depending on the size. Makers, such as Paws Aboard and Ruff Wear, are even designing them to be cute and fashionable accessories. Paws Aboard’s Doggy jackets come in the original neon-yellow, as well as a cute nautical print, a polka dot print and their latest, a Louie Vuitton inspired print. Ruff Wear's k-9 Float Coat comes in a red and black and an orange and black version.
Go out and get one so that your doggy can also enjoy a lap or two and doesn’t have to be stuck on land during the dog days of summer.
