EzyDog life jacket

[JacksonsMom]

Anyone have one, or any EzyDog stuff?

I'm very very interested in getting this lifejacket for Jackson this summer because he seems to have an issue with me velcroing something across his whole belly (like most lifejackets are - we have the Outward Hound now) and he just hates the process.

But this EzyDog preserver is just straps under the belly, and you buckle them on the top, so it definitely seems like it'd be the easiest, for his sake, and make it more enjoyable. Plus it seems pretty secure and more comfy!

AND it's not a terrible price! Oh and he looks good in red hehe.

I dunno about the life jacket, but my boss has all eight of his dogs wearing ezydog collars because he loves them. And he's got quite a few of their leashes too.

I have an EzyDog harness and I HATE it. I want to like it, I really do, but it just doesn't work. The sizing is all wrong (I ordered it for Logan and it fits Gavroche) but aside from that it's just impractical.

I have an Ezydog harness. I did take a little extra time to fit. I thought it was never going to fit over Zen's chest. Once I got the girth part adjusted though, I was able to get the chest strap to fit too. I like how easy on/off it is, which is why I bought it. It could be made with a little better material, the nylon feels cheap.

There is only one review on that life jacket and it's for a 5lb chihuahua. The reviews on their other life jackets have quite a few people saying they aren't true to size. Since I'm pretty sure you said Jackson was closer to the 15lb range, I wouldn't buy that one. Maybe buy the size up, but if that one is only rated for 15lbs and both Saleofu and I have had sizing issues with Ezydog products. (plus the reviews on the website)

Ok, thanks! I was definitely wondering about the sizes, because he's very much at the upper range of that xsmall micro one, so he may be better off with the xs on the regular vest. I found it on amazon for cheaper so I'll probably buy it on there and just return it if it doesn't fit right.

Edit - although I just found one review for the regular XS and she said her 20lb corgi fit in it pretty perfect but with some room to spare. Corgi's are shaped so different, Jackson has a teeny skinny body (and a broad chest) so I am just not sure lol.

I have two of the ezydog harnesses... one that I need to return because of the sizing. When they say to go up to the next size if your dog's girth is close to the end of the range, they really mean it. My 12 lb miniature schnauzer has a 17" girth, so I got her the XS at first, thinking that was right (the girth range on that harness for XS is 12-19, and her neck falls into the size range for XS too... by the size charts, her neck is too tiny for anything larger). Even at it's largest, I couldn't strap it around her. So, I had to upgrade her to the S. It could be that I'm not measuring her right, but since I'm consistently getting the same measurement, I think it's the sizing that's maybe a little off!

I ordered the Micro XS on amazon for like $18. I watched that video on amazon of the corgi wearing the regular XS with room to spare and there's NO way it would fit Jackson, it would be way too big for him. It should hopefully get here this week. But we're in no hurry, figured I'd order it now so I have time to exchange if needed.
