If you are set on getting a Service Dog Vest for your pet, here are some considerations that will definitely help.

1.       When choosing a vest, prioritize comfort for your dog above anything else. Don’t compromise comfort for design or price tag because you’re not the one who will be wearing the vest in the end. Your dog will.

2.       Decide for what purpose your dog will wear the gear. Designs vary in terms of function so your decision will come in handy when choosing between models later on. Harness types are built for more rigorous activities because they are designed to cling on better to your service dogs. Backpacks on the other hand are bulkier and less comfortable but they are perfect for camping and long trips away from home. If you’re just buying a vest for city walks, cape styles are perfect because they provide easy and quick access to the load.

3.       Consider the material of the vest that you’re buying. The type of material can have a huge effect on how the vest would do during certain weather conditions. Usually, experts would choose materials based on how cool or how hot it would be for the service dogs.

4.       Don’t settle for cheap imitations. Service dog vests are good investments because they will make your Service Dogs a whole lot more useful in the end. Ruff Wear is a great brand!
