I bought this for my catahoula pup. She needed something to keep her warm when it gets down into the 40s since she doesn't have a sub layer of fur. It fits her very well she's 42 LB. It appears to be made very well I love the way the zipper zip from the shoulder to the rump and then the flap overlays it to keep it from coming undone. She's been very active in it running through multiple areas of heavy brush cover and swimming through many canals and lakes it is never once failed me.

Vest sizing chart was right on point. perfect fit. My dogs get to swim alot in NY lakes/streams and hike a good 5 miles daily. but also wanted them for the colder weather like right now in december with rain/sleet/snow. Keeps them warm and dry. Vests are easy on and easy off. Good Stuff. I've had vest approx about 2 months. holding up well and have been used alot. Pic attached.

It is hard to find a vest that will properly fit a smaller dog. The Dokken XS size is the perfect fit for my 32 lb Boykin Spaniel - Bogie. His measurements for neck, chest and stomach are at or just below those recommended for the vest. It appears to be well made, fit well with no needed adjustments and it does keep him drier on the chest, back and belly. Bogie seemed to have no problem getting accustomed to having the vest on. I am sure it will keep him warmer on our late fall hunts. It met all my expectations.

My skinny Australian Shepherd loves to go fishing, crossing streams back and forth. When the temp dropped below freezing, she did fine as long as we were moving. But she shivered constantly every time I stopped for awhile to fish a specific spot. She doesn't have thick fur, and has no significant layer of insulating fat. This vest helps tremendously.

Her measurements are one inch under the x small vest measurements, but it fits snugly and she is dry under it. Has gotten snagged on blackberry vines, scraped going under and over logs and held up fine.

There are nice features with this vest. Heavy Duty zipper and a Velcro cover over the zipper. I found the fit to be a little on the small side of the measurement chart. Another good feature is it wraps all the way around the under belly.

Vest appears well made and is true to size for neck, chest and stomach. 3.5mm provides enough stretch to give a tight insulating fit. I have a 2XL for my lab and it could be 6-8 inches longer to better fit her length and cover more of her stomach. Fortunately, Louisiana does not have long and/or cold Winters.

Duck opener my dog disappeared for 4 hours When I found her the vest was missing. Just glad I found my dog. I'm going to have to order another one cuz it's getting cold out.

This product is exactly what I was looking for. A great value compared to similar products from other suppliers. You can't go wrong with this dog vest.

Shorthairs are tough to fit because of the large chest and narrow stomach. The vest fit perfectly, and does not bind or interfere with swimming!

Our lab just turned 1 and hit the scales at 100 pounds. He is very broad and long but not fat. Went with xxxl and fit him well. Well made and he doesn't mind wearing it on cold days.

I can completely be honest to say that the neoprene insulated dog vest is incredibly amazing since it is so securely attached to his body and keeps him so much warmer than without one swimming in cold water!! The camouflage design of it allows him to be camouflaged at the pond or in the field and look identical to my camouflage!

Had to cut it a little under front arms, but it's a great vest. Bella loves to wear it. Works well in duck blind and during the blizzard we just had. Thanks.
This is second vest we have ordered. She out grew the first one. She is big chested. lol She is also still wearing the collar we ordered. Everything has been great.

I bought one for each of my dogs for duck hunting trips and used them two days in a row. The second day one of the vests started to come apart at the seams, and I finally had to take it off the dog. I just think that the sewing needs to be reinforced on this brand of vest. However, I called Gun Dog Supply and told them about my issue, and they rectified the issue by sending me another new vest to try. I have owned other dog hunting vests and come to the conclusion that they really only last a year or two if your dogs hunt a whole lot...like mine do! So this one that separated kinda threw me for a loop, when it basically only lasted the two days. Might have just been a bad apple coming out of the factory.

Received it very fast great product fit my dog perfect

Hi Steve, the vest is really proven to be helpful with my dog Buddy. He is a bigger breed Lab, and I really had trouble finding the right fit for him. I tried most top line hunting dog suppliers including Cabelas /Bass Pro etc. I decided to shop for a larger vest online, and found your website. You had the extra large size that he needed, and it fits just about perfect! It is much colder hunting now, and it seems to keep him comfortable. Thanks for a great product. Tom

Nice fit with a little trim to open up the front shoulders. True to size chart. Easy to put on/off. The neoprene on this vest is slightly thinner which gives it more flexibility. Great vest.

Seems like it will work well, given the 3 mm, my dogs wasn't impeded. Wish it had a handle on top to help getting him into the boat.

Great product. Fit my dog well right out of the box! And got here really fast!

I have used neoprene vests before on my dogs before, and they love them. I hunt in northern Wisconsin, and it gets a little chilly up here, and I need to keep their core temp up. This works...

Ripped first hunt. Stitching came loose. Waiting for new one.

Great vest will serve us well. Thank you

I have a very small lab. I purchased the smallest size I could find. After using it for two days, I discovered that the vest had rubbed raw spots under her front legs. In fairness to the product, it could be because my dog is so small.

Some stitching was defective. We had to restitch some seams, but otherwise it worked great.

Excellent vest. Fits correct to measurements. Easy to put on and non-interfering in the field. My setter is comfortable with it, and so am I. Great for the field and the dog.

Thanks to several comments posted, I took a chance on it fitting him. This vest is cut for a more lean spaniel. Looks very well made. He may not hunt the best, but he should be comfortable/warm in this.

Hard to get good sizing for a female trial dog. 19 inch neck, 33 inch chest, 24 inch waist. Nothing that a pair of scissors and a tube of Aquaseal can't cure though.

It is a good fit. Well made. A little thin for the Setter who needs a little more warmth than the lab, but size and fit are very important. This one was a great fit. Thanks

Fits great for our huge golden retriever. She's just starting into birds. Seems comfortable for her, and it's easy to put on. Durable zipper and really strong Velcro! Thanks Gun Dog Supply for a great product.

We train/hunt in beaver swamps with many pointed stumps. This really protects the pup.

Quality of product is great. Shipping was fast.. love the large heavy duty zipper. I may have ordered it a bit small, but it is doing the job! It does stretch a bit, so that is good. Hard to judge size online, but well worth it in quality.
