Outward Hound Granby Splash
Budget dog life jacket. Two top lift handles, neon visibility, moderate foam buoyancy for ~£25. Good first jacket for occasional summer water use.
3.9 / 5
Recommended with caveats
Strengths
- Cheapest jacket in the comparison - ~£20-30 typical UK retail
- Two top handles - useful for two-handed lifts out of pools or off the side of a paddle board
- Bright neon colours common in this range - strong visibility on water and from a distance
Watch outs
- Lighter foam construction than Ruffwear or Kurgo - not the right pick for rough water or weak swimmers
- Single belly strap on smaller sizes can shift during long swims
- Less durable build - expect 1-2 seasons of regular use rather than 5+ from premium jackets
£25
