[QUOTE="tnbndr, post: 2783382, member: 118768"] Just an FYI , be careful and vigilant if you run a vest with leg holes, like the Scheels model. Most likely the holes are too small and will rub your dog raw in the armpit area. They will never complain and just keep hunting but it has to hurt!!!. I used to run vests for visibility, so I could see the dog easier in dark woods or fields. I don't use them much anymore, in fact, almost never. I had custom made hog vests, some made by a local tailor to my design. For visibility the ones that go over the back but just have a neck strap and belly strap worked the best: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.uglydoghunting.com/shop/for-your-dog/dog-hunting-vests/rivers-west-h2p-dog-vest/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://ruffwear.com/products/lumenglow-jacket[/URL] For cold protection I found the Riverwest vest the nicest: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.uglydoghunting.com/shop/for-your-dog/dog-hunting-vests/rivers-west-h2p-dog-vest/[/URL] For chest/belly protection I like the skid plate type: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.uglydoghunting.com/shop/for-your-dog/dog-hunting-vests/skid-plate/[/URL] I run German Shorthairs and they are very narrow between the front legs so I usually had to alter the skid plate vests so they didn't rub them raw. Good luck in your ventures. [/QUOTE]
