Description
Some dogs love the water and tire out faster than they think.
This buoyancy vest helps your dog stay afloat and rest while they swim, with a bright, reflective finish so you can spot them at a distance. The handle on top lets you lift them out of the water or steady them getting in and out of a boat.
Built for supervised swimming — the beach, the river, the pool, the tinnie.
- Foam panels add buoyancy and help your dog rest in the water
- High-visibility colour with reflective trim
- Grab handle on top for lifting and steadying
- Adjustable straps for a secure fit
- Five sizes — measure your dog before ordering
A swim aid for supervised use only. This is not rated safety equipment and is not a substitute for supervision — always watch your dog in and around water.
Shipping across Australia, 7–14 business days.

All measurements in cm. Measure the chest (the widest part just behind the front legs) and go by that — if your dog is near the top of a range, size up. Breeds are a rough guide only; build varies a lot, so measuring is what avoids a wrong-size return.
Handy little feature
The chin rest is removable
That padded chin rest on the front isn't fixed on — it's held by Velcro. Peel it off in seconds for dogs who'd rather go without, then pop it straight back whenever you like. One jacket, two ways to wear it.

Why they love it
Keeps their head above water

The name
What's a larrikin?
A larrikin is old Aussie slang for a cheeky troublemaker with a good heart — the mate who's always up for a laugh but would never let you down. That's how we see our pets, and it's how we build our gear: fun, honest, and built to last.
