Product Description
The Hurtta Worker Dog Vest is a top - notch light vest designed for dogs during outdoor activities and hunting. It offers high visibility with plenty of reflective prints and 3M reflective piping, keeping your dog easily noticeable in various situations. Crafted from an elastic and breathable knitted fabric with a weatherproof Houndtex layer, it's durable and silent in use. The belly flap is made of tough, wear - resistant Cordura fabric, perfect for demanding conditions. This vest contains Clariant Sanitized treatment with permethrin, an active substance that repels mosquitoes, horseflies, and ticks. Note that the Clariant Sanitized treatment is dermatologist - tested and safe for dogs, but it may cause a reaction on sensitive skin. It's not suitable for cats as permethrin is toxic to them. Features include weatherproof and breathable Houndtex, a comfortable and tight - fitting design, highly visible 3M reflectors, removable loops for a GPS collar, durable Cordura on the chest and stomach, and insect - repelling properties. Sizes range from XSmall (Neckine: 14', Chest: 20', Waist: 16') to XXLarge (Neckline: 22', Chest: 35', Waist: 27'). To measure, take the neckline at the base of the neck, the chest at the widest point behind the front legs (add two inches for freedom of movement), and the waist at the widest part in front of the back legs.
Using your Hurtta Worker Dog Vest is easy. Just put it on your dog, adjusting the neckline and chest area to fit comfortably. Make sure the vest lies flat on your dog's body. When it comes to the removable loops for the GPS collar, attach your dog's GPS collar to them if you plan to use it during outdoor activities. As for the insect - repelling feature, the permethrin in the Clariant Sanitized treatment will do its job naturally when your dog is outside. Now, for the important stuff. The treatment is safe for most dogs, but if your dog has sensitive skin, keep an eye out for any reactions. And remember, this vest is not for cats because permethrin is poisonous to them. For maintenance, you can gently wash the vest with mild detergent. Let it air - dry to keep the fabric in good condition. Check the reflective prints and 3M piping regularly to ensure they are still in good shape for maximum visibility. Also, look at the Cordura fabric on the belly flap; if it shows signs of excessive wear, it might be time to think about getting a new vest.
