Shown above is the Medium vest on Raine the Malinois and CJ the German Shepherd. This vest is too large on Raine, but still shows ow the vest fits.

This vest is designed with two goals in mind. The first being to build muscle and strength in your dog during exercise. The second is to burn excess energy in a dominant or aggressive dog. (A tired dog is not dominant or aggressive!)

This Weighted Vest should not be used on dogs under 2 years of age. Dogs are still growing until they reach maturity between 18 - 24 months old. You do not want to damage their joints by over working them or over exercising them while they are still developing.

The Weighted Vest is made from heavy cordura denier backed fabric that is double stitched in construction. The weighted vest was designed with safety of the dog in mind.

On the underside of the vest all along the upper back and shoulder area it is sheepskin lined; as well as the chest strap and girth strap.

There are individual zippered pockets and one-pound weights in the medium and large vest. (The large has 10 pockets and 10 weights, while the medium has 8 pockets and 8 weights). The small vest has 8 zippered pockets with half-pound weights (four on each side). This is great as you can start out using the vest with no weight to get the dog accustomed to the vest and then gradually add the weights during training.

This weighted vest is perfect to work a dominant or aggressive dog in. If the dog is tired, it is less likely to cause trouble! Watch for my new DVD "Dealing with Dominant and Aggressive Dogs" to be released soon!
