Gooby Fashion Vest Check Dog Jacket – White Check, Medium – Warm Zip Up Dog Bomber Vest Dual D Ring Leash – Winter Water Resistant Small Dog Sweater – Dog Clothes for Small Dogs Boy or Medium Dogs

Looks Good and Helps with the Chill but…..
I waited until I had used this vest more than a few times and so far, it’s worked very well. My dog “G” has got to be part whippet or greyhound judging by her structure. She wandered up one day and after searching for the owner for weeks, we decided to keep her. I haven’t regretted it for a minute.So, since a regular collar wasn’t ideal for this dog, my wife was the first to buy a harness, then a slip-over vest, then another and another. “G” didn’t like any of them. So, I searched and searched until I found this Gooby Vest. I was a little worried about the sizing since she’s not exactly ‘normal’. Well, it fit well over her body and gives her plenty of room to move without being too loose. The material is soft and looks comfortable to me and has ‘stretchy’ material (like a sweater) on the bottom to ensure a good fit. The rings on top for a leash are perfect and I don’t see any problem with how they are attached. Looks strong. I like that because it keeps the leash on top instead of one side or the other although, as you can see, there’s plenty of room for a collar too if you want. The zipper seems like it’s strong and will last, and just so you don’t have trouble zipping it with a wiggling dog, there’s a snap button at the top to lock it around her neck. From there it’s no problem zipping. Personally, I like this vest but, I’m not so sure “G” is sold on it.She allows me to put it on her but, she really doesn’t want it, which by the way is how she acts with ALL of her vests/harness etc.. Plus, when I take it off you’d think she had been wrapped in a blanket or something. She’s FREE!! The only thing that I think might bother her is the material around the front leg holes which is bundled up inside around the hole. If I was wearing it I think in might bother me but, who knows why she isn’t pleased. Also, instead of the leg holes she might like something that’s more like a ‘throw’ over her and would allow her underneath to be free. Of course, I’m just guessing plus something like that would require a different hook up, like a real collar with it. The only way to know for sure is to buy all kinds of jackets/vests/throws and just see what happens. Well, that ain’t going to happen. For now, this Gooby Vest is the one she’ll need to get used to because it’s the best of the many that I have, and it’s the one I’m going to use. So, suck it up “G”.My biggest objection was the price compared to most others but, as you can see, it’s the one I’m going to use. Make up your own mind about that. My rating is 5 stars. “G’s” rating is 3 stars (“G” gives 1 star for all the rest)

THIS DOE NOT RUN TYPICAL TO MOST PET STORE SIZES
I purchased this for severe winter weather for my jack Russell/beagle mix. My dog is at best 22 pounds when he is at his weightiest. He is all bulk-no fat. I typically can fit him into medium harnesses when I walk him. I have purchased ALOT of different harnesses because I want him comfortable under his arms. He is incredibly strong and both breeds have intense ‘hunting’ traits so in a heartbeat if a squirrel or groundhog happens by…he can pull with a strength similar to a dog several times his weight! His underarm area is what I am most concerned about as far as comfort. This vest looked like a dream! I ordered the Large based on a previous review- and it seemed to fit snug-(but honestly you want a snug fit for the jacks because they can slip out of anything too loose with their Houdini skills!)What I realized quickly is that the bottom of the vest-(not under the pits) but close to his abdomen was squeezing him like a bull in a rodeo! Just way too tight there!The chest fit great and under his arms. That is what I was focused on but after a walk-I realized that part fit ‘way too snug!’ He did shake a few times but I assumed it was because he was getting used to the coat. He was probably shaking it to a more comfortable position. I am returning the Large and I ordered an XL.Can you imagine ordering an XL ANYTHING for a Jack Russell??I am hopeful this will be a good fit because it IS a nice coat. I wont be putting this on my dog unless we are in a heavy snow or the temps are below 30- so this is a good pick and fits nicely under the armpits without cutting in or chaffing the dog.

I tried so many different brands for my 2 Malteses, never finding a ‘perfect’ fit, they would be too big in the chest but right in the length, or right in the chest but not long enough or even too long and would get wet when he peed. This brand is as ‘perfect’ as it’s going to get for my 2, so much so that they have 3 different levels of jackets from this brand in several different colours each. This one is particularly forgiving as the underside has a bit of a stretch so even if your dog is on the margin, like my male one in the chest, he can still wear this size and not worry about covering his male parts if he had to size up. Top quilted side is water resistant but the underside not so much, not that we take them out when it is pouring outside. The d-rings for leash attachment are enough for us as mine are not strong pullers. Zippers on the back makes it easier to put on as it’s feet in first, the strip of material under the zip ensures you don’t catch their fur when you zip up. For under a tenner when offers are on, you can’t go wrong for quality and fit.

This is a well made cozy jacket for my little guy. His neck is 12″, chest 17″, length 14″, he weighs 12 lbs. I purchased the large size. The jacket fits perfectly, except for the neck, which I knew would be a bit large. No problem though I was able to snug it up by just threading a length of black wool through it, and gathering the neck in some. We have cold winters I believe it will keep him warm when he goes out to do his business, in other words for short trips out in the cold winter. Have purchased a different, heavier one for blowing snow and walks on the coldest days. I am very pleased with this purchase. Thanks Gooby for making this for small dogs, and thanks Amazon for carrying it!Update: We now have had this jacket for 2 years. Have washed it several times and use it often in the cold weather. It is still wonderful, looks just like it did when we first got it. Thanks again Gooby!

Esta hermoso!! Muy cómodo y calientito para mi mascota
