While many dogs are good swimmers, they’ll get just as tired as we do if they’re hanging out in the water for a long time. So whether you’re relaxing by the pool, boating or swimming at the beach, it’s important to keep your dog as safe as possible — which means giving him the same floatation device you’d use for yourself or your kids: a life jacket! The best life jackets have buoyant padding and a top handle and come in bright colors or have reflective accents. The life jacket you choose should also have adjustable straps so you can make sure it fits securely on your pup. We made a list of highly rated options to help you find the best dog life jacket for your pup.
