| Life Vests/jackets? Does anyone know where I can purchase life vests/jackets (life preservers) for our little ones? We plan on being in our boats all summer. I want to take my babies, but not if I can't find life vests for them...I would feel awful if anything ever happened to them.

Donating YT 10K Club Member | Any of your local boating supply places will have them year round unlike the pet supply places who carry them seasonally.

| My boys were Outward Hound lifejackets all summer long because they love going in the inground pool. I love them because the bottom is full so when I pick them up by the handle I know its not hurting their tummies. They work great and are pretty easy to get on them and just about impossible for them to get out of.

We liked the Outward Hound Designer the best, for fit and overall safety. My tiny 4# Kia wears an XXS and my 6.5# Sydney wears an XS. Here is a link to them.

| I was just looking at life jackets today. I need to get one for Lexi before we start our weekends at the lake! She loves to swim in the bathtub! I was looking at getting an outward Hound so good to hear the reviews! We just turned our sprinkler system on for the summer and she loves running thru the misters! Funny! |
