This S&R Style Dog Harness Vest comes in four sizes. The dog vest is made of a tough and highly visible 1000 denier nylon/urethane coated fabric that is padded and lined for your dog's comfort. There is a Hook and Loop closing, clear vinyl pocket for your ID. The reflective straps across the back and sides of the dog vest provide added visibility at night. All seams are double stitched and bound with nylon web for a beautiful, finished look.

On top of the vest, there is a heavy welded D-ring for attaching your leash/lead and allowing you to use the harness for pulling / carting work with your dog. There is also a plastic swivel snap.

The chest strap has a two-way adjustment.

The girth strap is adjustable and allows your dog the mobility that it needs to work, run, and jump.

The vest comes with 2 patches (regular, not specialty patches) of your choice.

Additional patches and any specialty patches can also be purchased. There is no extra charge to have them sewn on for you.

Nearly perfect. The waiste band is just a little narrow
The quality is excellent! However, I use my dog for balance support and the narrowness of belly band does not distribute the pull weight over a large enough area (IMHO)

Love it!
The fit is perfect, it's a very lightweight professional vest that came very quickly. I find that in this seuo t we get less attention as people can very quickly read the patches and the red is eye catching. I love the simplicity and ease of putting it on/off.

The search and rescue style is my personal favorite for the visibility factor and the way it fits my dogs body shape. I'm glad I got 4 patches vs 2, retrospectively I think I'd have put one on the top of the vest as well.

The only "downside" is that this vest doesn't come with zippered pockets, the one it does have is translucent. If you want to be able to store emergency meds, doctor's note, program ID, law cards or whatever else, I suggest looking for a design with a different pocket style or getting a clip on pouch.

Overall a nice wash and wear vest that gets the point across, no frills, no complexity.

Absolutely a blessing!
I have a teenage daughter who has a service animal for Narcolepsy with cataplexy. She "lost"
her dogs vest. In order to function, she needs her dog and vest with her. The wonderful person at Active dogs helped us locate the vest style that we were looking for as well as all the pouches that my daughter was used to having on the dogs vest. The items arrived before promised and were perfect. Love these people!

Fits well, cool & comfortable
I have Active Dogs padded service dog harnesses left over from my previous service dogs, and those are great. But I saw this on sale and decided to give it a shot. My current SD is a black German Shepherd: I liked the idea of the reflective strips because he is really hard to see at night.

This harness blows me away. The mesh lining makes it cooler than the standard padded vest. It’s comfortable and moves well on the dog. The longer fit is perfect for a German Shepherd (and other breeds that are longer than they are tall).

Like all Active Dogs large dog harnesses, this has D rings that are secure and reliable for whatever you need them.

I don’t have a lot of use for the ID pouch, but it’s secure if you need it.

This is just an awesome harness. I bought a medium because my dog hasn’t fully filled out yet. But I won’t hesitate to buy a large when he grows into that.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Honestly an amazing vest!
So I bought this vest after reading all the reviews for my service dog Frodo. It arrived exactly a week after ordering and considering it was an international order that's amazing considering the weather up here! It fits perfectly and since I was a little worried about the sizing I even snagged the girth extender too. The material looks like it'd be durable for all weather and I love how readable the patches are and they aren't as tiny as I expected them to be. I would definitely recommend this vest and will likely be purchasing another!

Great vest, worth the upgrade.
I purchased this vest for my dog a few weeks ago, the second I took it out of the box I was surprised how sturdy it felt in my hand. Once it breaks in it is a great vest, my dog doesn't seem to notice it. The velcro on the pouch is a nice touch.

Arrived in Toronto, ON in 3 days in a sturdy cardboard box. If you are looking at the $50 vests, spend the extra $20 and get this one, you won't replace it any time soon.

High End Vest
A few weeks ago, I ordered this vest for one of the service dogs that is getting close to certification as a hearing dog. I was considering altering the vest for a more unique-to-our-program look, so I took it to a saddle maker for pricing and he told me that the workmanship of this item is extremely well made with so many different features that he would charge extra for. He stated that with the strong materials used and the excellent stitching, this was an extremely durable vest and would last for a very long time. He also stated that he could never match the price with all of the materials they used and that I'd have to purchase materials separately if I wanted him to alter the vest to look more unique to our program. I was so pleased with his assessment of the vest that I wanted to place a review. To be sure, it is a perfect vest for service work. It is padded and the material used is coated with non-breathable material, so it could get hot for dogs in hotter climates, but that is the only thing to consider. A super great value for such a durable item. Great job!

High Quality Product
My wife and I spent a few months looking at the S&R Style Vest for my service animal. Although we kept saying we'd budget for it, we put it off again and again, using a flimsy velcro cape instead. A couple weeks ago we noticed that the vest was on sale and decided we simply couldn't put it off any longer. After some consideration, we opted for the two optional "Working Dog - Do Not Pet" patches, in addition to the two included "Service Dog" ones. I ordered the vest after close of business on Friday and was pleasantly surprised to receive a notification from UPS that it had shipped on Monday morning. That was quick! When the vest arrived on Friday, I called Scrappy over and held it above his head. Like a pro, he slipped through the hole and waited patiently while I attached the girth strap. I particularly love the extra large, highly durable buckle to fasten the strap. Fit had been a concern for us, given that his girth is 25", just above small and on the lowest measurement of the medium vest we'd ordered. Amazingly neither strap needed any adjustment. It fit him perfectly right out of the box! He seems very comfortable in the vest and his movement is not hindered in any way whatsoever. Control is very easy with the D-ring and the handle both attached to the girth strap. Bottom line, this is a high quality, extremely durable product which will service us (and you!) quite well for many years to come.

If you have any doubts regarding ordering from this company, put them at rest. I have order twice and have been very satisfied each time. The last time, I ordered the wrong size (even though I did measure the dog) found the vest too small and called to find out how to return. EASY-sent back the too small vest, Activedogs.com let me know by email that they had received and put a larges vest into the mail, I think the same day. Their vests are QUALITY. All of the patches are in the right places and nicely done. Very happy with Activedogs.com

I am very pleased with this vest for my service dog who is a medium-sized, but very narrow around the girth, mixed lab. Not all vests come in small sizes. This one fits perfectly. The quality and design of the vest are excellent. I use the reflective snap-on bridge handle for extra handle height. The distance of the two O-rings fits the snaps. I actually had to return a different vest which was too large and requested this replacement. The staff I spoke with and the USPS priority mail turn around time was super.

I have used several different harnesses with my mobility / balance service dog, but this one is the best. Not only do I feel more secure, but my dog doesn't mind having this put on him like he does with the more restrictive leather, or binding harnesses we've tried in the past. I have recommended this to other recipients and will continue to do so!

Very hardy and durable, exactly as described and I also belive this vest makes a better harness than actual harnesses I have used. Features that I like are the sturdy handle at the top of the vest, three o-rings (one on each side, one on top) so that I may choose where I want to clip a leash for training. There is also a heavy duty plastic clip on top behind the handle.

I have three different harnesses for my service dog, but this vest works better than any of them. It doesn't restrict my dog's movement in any direction, and this is the first time that I put a new piece of equipment on my dog and he adapted to it immediately. The three different D-rings allow for proper positioning of both a lead and an optional handle (I recommend the Neophreme). Plus it's extremely well made and should last a long time. And the turnaround speed - even though two patches were sewn on, the vest arrived within three days. Fantastic!
