The Drake Waterfowl GD99000063 Neoprene Dog Vest delivers essential warmth and buoyancy for hunting dogs working in cold water conditions. Built with premium neoprene construction and finished in Mossy Oak Bottomland camouflage, this vest maintains your dog's core temperature during extended waterfowl hunts.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic dog vests that offer minimal insulation, this neoprene construction provides the same thermal protection used in human wetsuits. The 3mm neoprene core traps body heat while allowing full range of motion for swimming and retrieving. Mossy Oak Bottomland pattern blends seamlessly with marsh environments, maintaining concealment during hunts.
Key Features
- 3mm neoprene construction provides superior thermal insulation in cold water
- Mossy Oak Bottomland camouflage pattern for optimal concealment
- Large size fits dogs with 28-32 inch chest measurements
- Adjustable chest and belly straps ensure secure, comfortable fit
- Buoyant neoprene material assists with swimming and water retrieval
- Quick-drying exterior prevents extended moisture retention
- Reinforced stitching withstands demanding field conditions
Field performance centers on maintaining working temperature in harsh conditions. The neoprene barrier prevents rapid heat loss when dogs enter frigid water for retrieves. Flexible material construction allows natural swimming motion while providing consistent insulation. The vest performs effectively in temperatures down to 20°F with proper layering underneath.
