Frequently Asked Questions
How does the FloatPaws jacket work?
Slip the vest over your dog's head, clip the two side buckles, and adjust the straps once — about 15 seconds total. The built-in chin rest keeps their head above water, while the top grab handle gives you instant grip.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your dog's chest circumference at the widest part of the rib cage and match it to our size chart. Between sizes? Size up.
My dog can already swim — do they really need a life jacket?
Yes. Even strong swimmers tire, get disoriented, or struggle against currents. A jacket adds buoyancy plus a grab handle so you can help them out fast.
Will it keep my dog's head above water?
Yes. The built-in chin float supports the head and reduces fatigue, which is especially helpful for puppies, senior dogs, and smaller breeds.
