Dog Life Jacket for Siberian Husky — Size L, 18 lb Lift
Dog life jacket for Siberian Huskys
Siberian Huskys wear size L. That is based on a chest of 26-33 in, which falls inside our L range of 26-33 in. The L vest carries a tested lift of 18 lb.
Can a Siberian Husky swim?
Huskies have a dense double coat that waterlogs and drags. They swim, but the coat works against them, and cold water is deceptive.
How to size a Siberian Husky
Fit is decided by chest, not by breed. Run a tape around the widest part of the ribcage, just behind the front legs, and pull it snug without compressing. That number picks the size. A Siberian Husky usually measures 26-33 in, which is why size L is the starting point, but measure the dog in front of you rather than trusting a breed average.
| Size | Chest | Weight | Tested lift |
|---|---|---|---|
| L | 26-33 in | 40-70 lb | 18 lb |
What the vest does for a Siberian Husky
- Chin float. A pad under the jaw holds the muzzle clear of the water instead of letting it drop. On flat-faced and short-legged breeds this is the difference between swimming and struggling.
- Spine handle. Stitched along the back, built to lift a soaked dog out of a pool or back into a boat one-handed.
- Reflective flanks. So the dog reads at distance in low light.
- Closed-cell foam. Does not absorb water, so the lift on the label is the lift in the water.
Six colourways, XS to XL. See the vest.

A buoyancy aid, not a substitute for you. Always supervise your dog in and around water.
