The HOUND Life Jacket is designed for water-loving dogs who swim, paddleboard, boat, dock dive and explore around the water.

Made with buoyant foam panels, adjustable neck and chest straps, a padded grab handle and a high-visibility orange design, it helps support your dog in the water while giving you extra control around boats, docks, paddleboards and shorelines.

The adjustable fit allows you to secure the jacket comfortably to your dog’s body shape, while the built-in handle makes it easier to assist your dog in and out of the water when needed.

Features:

Buoyant foam panels to support flotation
Adjustable neck and chest straps
Secure buckle fit
Padded grab handle
High-visibility orange colour
Leash attachment point
Designed for swimming, boating, paddleboarding, dock diving and beach days

Sizing:
Chest measurement is the most important guide when choosing a life jacket size. Measure around the widest part of your dog’s chest, behind the front legs, and compare it with the size chart below.

Available sizes:

XS: 43–56cm chest / 31–41cm neck — currently out of stock
Small: 56–69cm chest / 38–50cm neck
Medium: 69–81cm chest / 45–59cm neck
Large: 91–107cm chest / 58–75cm neck

If your dog is between sizes, we recommend sizing up and adjusting the straps for a secure, comfortable fit.

Please always supervise your dog around water. A life jacket is a flotation aid and does not replace safe handling or supervision.

Rinse thoroughly with fresh water after saltwater, pool or muddy use. Fasten the buckles, hand wash with mild detergent when needed, then air dry completely in the shade before storing. Check the straps, buckles, seams and grab handle before each use.

We offer a 30 day return policy for unused gear in original condition. Email business@houndofficial.com.au and we’ll help you sort it.
