Why it matters
The Granby uses ripstop with thick foam and reinforced stitching for maximum buoyancy without restricting movement. A front float supports the head and neck, and a strong top handle helps lift your dog. Adjustable straps with quick-release buckles fit it; the small suits chests of 16–20 in.
