Ensure Your Dog’s Safety on the Water
Since launching in 2018, BAYDOG has developed products that are highly functional, durable, and infused with a coastal theme inspired by their location, just steps from the Chesapeake Bay. Their hometown, Annapolis, MD, is “America’s Sailing Capital,” so naturally, BAYDOG set out to design the best dog lifejacket in the world. It took a few years to develop, but the result was worth the wait. The Monterey Bay Canine Lifejacket is unlike anything else on the market.
The design of the Monterey Bay started with a simple observation: every dog lifejacket, regardless of price, was generally built the same. They all went around the dog’s torso and had a strap around the neck/chest area to keep it in place. This design exposes the area under the front legs— where dogs require the most support while swimming and being lifted from the water. The Monterey Bay incorporates a chest panel that connects the neck strap to the torso area and provides support underneath the length of the dog.

For their next offering, BAYDOG took the Monterey Bay to the next level, offering an Offshore version designed specifically for boaters. The Offshore design is the same original concept as the Monterey Bay but includes three enhancements, all designed to increase survivability if a dog falls off a boat at sea:
Two flotation pontoons on the back of the lifejacket role the dog upright, even if they enter the water upside down,
Improved chest flotation beneath the chin, which keeps the dog’s head elevated above the waterline,
An additional handle on the back of the three largest sizes makes it possible to lift heavier dogs onto the boat with two hands.
Arctic Bay Cooling Collar
Another essential item to bring along on boating adventures is BAYDOG’s latest offering: the Firefly LED Safety Light. Designed specifically as a lifejacket accessory, the Firefly is waterproof, attaches to any lifejacket, harness or collar, and shines in 7 different colors as well as flashing mode. It’s rechargeable and comes with a USB charging cable. Unlike people, when dogs fall off a boat, they can’t yell out for help and can be hard to locate, especially after dusk. But the Firefly can be seen from over 1,000 feet away, making your dog easy to spot and bring back aboard.

Lastly, nothing will help your dog beat the summer heat like BAYDOG’s Arctic Bay Cooling Collar. In contrast to other wet cooling bandanas that claim to keep your dog cool through evaporation, the BAYDOG cooling collar features custom cooling packs that, once fully frozen, will keep your dog cool for up to an hour or longer on even the hottest days. Additionally, replacement packs are available to store in your cooler for those long days out on the water.
With a 100% product guarantee, BAYDOG is dedicated to delivering high-quality products, which can be found in over 2,000 independent pet stores and West Marine locations across the United States.
