Levi is a 16lb Jack Russell mix. His legs are much too short for his body and his head is much too large :) He loves to swim in the pool but after a few minutes he begins to sink, and only his head ever sticks out of the water (not his whole top line like most dogs)... a life vest was in order. This is the fourth vest I tried and it is the best. It has no velcro or buckles which is its biggest seller. He just steps into it and it zips down his back. With other vests, the velcro came undone within minutes and the vest would slip up and bunch up at his neck, like a life vest too large for a person constricts the neck. It was dangerous and a pain. This one is great. I like the mesh bottom and that it zips up. There is a slit in the top of the collar to allow his head to move freely. Very well designed. The small fit him well, but the small has only one set of handles between the shoulder blades, not two sets like the picture depicts. It's still very easy to lift him out, but for those that are expecting 2 sets, you're only getting one on a small (and XS I'd imagine). I uploaded this video to show how well it keeps him up out of the water. He stands up so you can see the mesh bottom :)
Here is what he is fetching, in size small: Chuckit! Large Amphibious Gator Dog Toy

I have a teacup poodle and 2 Miniature Doxies. I have searched the world over for floats that would fit them. The poodle was always enveloped in the things and all you could see was her nose and ears. She always looked like a mummy. Fido Float XS actually fits her. Doxies notoriously have deep keels (chests) and to find a float was vertually impossible until Fido Float. The straps are in the right location and comfortably adjustable so that the dogs don't slip out of them through the back (the main problem with all of the others). The dogs love the boat and now I am more comfortable with them having protection. They swim when they are close to shore but when in rough water or far from shore I am much more comfortable with them in their Fido Floats. Thank you thank you thank you from Tinker, Tawny, and Windy!!!!
