Water Safety For Dogs

Although water safety for dogs seems obvious, there are some facts and stats that you should be aware of as an owner. Dog buoyancy aids will massively reduce your dog's risk of drowning, as well as reducing the severity of the common accidents. The Red Original Dog Buoyancy Aid has been designed to create the optimum swimming reducing the amount of energy needed to swim prolonging their time in the water, preserving life for longer.It is important to note that age, general fitness and certain medical conditions are all factors determining how long a dog can safely spend in the water, which is why we have our dog buoyancy aids available in 5 sizes, to ensure your pooch gets a perfect fit:

XS - 330 to 480mm
Small - 460 to 640mm
Medium - 610 to 810mm
Large - 760 to 940mm
XL - 890 to 1140mm

However, it comes down to each individual dog and its background and upbringing as to how comfortable it might be in the water. On average, a healthy dog should only consistently play in the water for 15 - 20 minutes, as swimming is equivalent to a fast run outdoors.
