Dog Life Vest TRIXIE 3118-uniw XS Polyester Black Yellow 28 cm

The TRIXIE Dog Life Vest is a safety aid for small dogs engaging in water activities. Constructed from durable polyester in black and yellow, the vest has a back length of 28 cm and is sized XS to fit smaller breeds. It is designed to provide buoyancy and improve visibility during swimming, boating, or when near open water. When selecting the correct size, choose by the dog's weight (carrying capacity) rather than only by back length; the vest should not cover the base of the tail so the dog can steer with its tail.

Advantages

The vest combines buoyant panels and a robust polyester outer fabric for reliable flotation and wear resistance. High-contrast yellow elements enhance visibility on the water while adjustable straps allow a secure fit for active dogs. The construction balances support and freedom of movement so the dog can swim naturally while receiving additional lift and stability.

Suitable for

• Swimming lessons and water rehabilitation for small dogs
• Boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding with a canine companion
• Trips to the beach, lakeside walks, and riverside activities
• Keeping a timid swimmer safer during supervised water play

Key specifications

• Material: polyester outer fabric with internal buoyant panels
• Size: XS, back length 28 cm
• Color: black and yellow for increased visibility
• Adjustable fastening system for a secure fit
• Designed to allow tail movement for steering in water

How to use

Place the vest on your dog and fasten the straps so the vest fits snugly but does not restrict breathing or movement. Adjust the straps at the chest and belly until the vest remains securely in place when the dog moves. Ensure the vest does not extend over the base of the tail to allow natural steering. Always supervise your dog while it is wearing the vest in or near water and check the fit before each use.

Usage recommendations

Select the correct size based on your dog’s weight rather than back length and inspect the vest regularly for wear or damage. Use the vest as a safety aid under supervision and avoid relying on it as a substitute for attentive monitoring or swimming training.
