Well my pups banded vest finally decided to break, I am wondering what everyone else likes to run on their dogs? I’m hoping I’ll be able to find one on an end of season sale.
I have several different brands but my favorite is Tanglefree. I use turtle skin vests (snake proof) for doves, pheasant, and other birds in thick brush. Seems to breathe and doesn't overheat the pups on warm days but I have 2 pups so they alternate retrieves.
I'll add my pups get an antivenom and snake avoidance training annually.
Those were the two I’ve been looking at, is there a specific one you like more/keeps the dog warmer? My BLF gets cold relatively easy. I know the Rig em Right is a 3mm/5mm mix, and the tangle free is straight 5mm. Another thing I want is flexibility, the banded vest just seemed to be extremely stiff on the dog.
