Ours is a deep chested breed (GSP) and weighs about 47 pounds. We are on the borderline between small and medium, so our trainer advised us to size down if close to the small or medium size. I think your boxer would fit directly into the medium size category after fitting into the small
It seems to be working just fine, but I'm still concerned she may slip out if her coat becomes wet. I ordered an XS, as my Yorkie is 6 lbs so the buckles must be tight. The neck size is 10, the chest size is 14, and the length is The weight was 5-6 pounds.
Despite being 130 lbs, it's obvious that my Newfoundland kicks in the water but appears to stay on top.

It suited my dog just fine to buy the medium. While the outer canvas/nylon of the new model is the same as the old model, it is much softer and more comfortable. In order to make you understand how the new model fits better, I have also attached a picture of my dog wearing the old model.
I have a 35# Aussie with a 24" girth, and a small is perfect! The jacket is nice and streamlined, the foam is supple and the fabric is flexible. We love the way it suits the dog's body and moves with it.
When we go to the beach or to a body of water that's not our pool, I always make sure my dog wears a life jacket. her other jackets have also grown out of size, this is her third jacket. This is the first model of this type. She is held up by them all Since they are made of buoyant materials, this one is exceptional in that it supports not just her chest, but every part of her body. I have never felt as confident with her swimming in a rough sea than I did when she had this life jacket on. It is definitely the right life jacket for someone who spends a lot of time in moving water.
The materials and design of these shoes are definitely not the cheapest, but they are of a high Her next is approximately 13 inches (for collars). I have a 21-pound goldendoodle and the XS fits her perfectly. Take measurements around the dog's chest, then follow the guide. The chest portion of the vest can be adjusted, as can the neck. It does exactly what it's supposed to do and has been great for kayaking and, of course, the.
We purchased the older Ruffwear Float Coat style in a Medium for our other dog years ago, and now that our current dog is older, we purchased the larger style for my dog. Because the medium has been used for many years and is in excellent condition, I fear I might lose it. I keep it on hand in case any friends need to borrow it. It is still very easy to put on and take off the new style. We have had excellent luck with my dogs swimming, but I would like to make sure that they are comfortable, visible, and safe when kayaking or paddle boarding. It is difficult to break the handle or leash attachments on this harness. Its orange color allows it to be seen very clearly by other people and vessels and lets them swim or float at their leisure.
We are absolutely certain our Sheepadoodle is safe in the water since we bought a Ruffwear Dog Life Jacket. Her passion for the water was always on or by the water, but now she LOVES to be IN it. After adding the vest to our adventures, she now swims next to our paddle boards for long periods of time, leading to a lot of exhaustion for her The small fits her perfectly for her 26" chest and 15" waist. Although I was reluctant to follow the size guide (in my mind she should have been a medium), it was definitely a good idea. It has an approximate length of 5 inches. I have full confidence this vest will last her a lifetime! I have no doubt that the quality of this vest is the best of any vest that we looked at.
You have done an excellent job with those. This gives my labs a better chance of being safe on the water, so I bought two of them. The chest diameter of this pair is 29" so I thought the medium size would be suitable. have the ability to adjust the straps to make them fit, it would have left a portion of the belly exposed and uncovered by the life vest, and it would also likely hinder floatation and also facilitate rubbing and things getting caught on the belly straps. In response to your review I have reordered in large sizes. I will update it when they arrive. However, if you have any doubts, I encourage you to buy the next size up.
On the basis of the picture, I was worried it would be too bulky. As a result, it was very sleek and my dog had full range of motion Her breed is a small terrier mix (17 pounds) and she wears an loves to SUP and kayak with us, as well as occasionally dive in for a dip. It is easy for the paddler to lift her in and out of the kayak and prepare her for her return to the SUP thanks to the handle on the back. Despite being bright and visible, the jacket is comfortable to wear. Besides the clip ring under the handle, there is also a clip on the life jacket for attaching a leash or other safety line. She wore it out of the house on the way to the water, and I attached it to her car seat with the clip ring. She liked that it seemed to dry quickly, and that it A perfect 10! I was extremely pleased with this life jacket (and I was expecting more since it is a more expensive.
