Canine swimming aid and water safety device

The device is a swimming aid and water safety device and is suitable for most breeds of dogs from terriers to german shepherds. The device is particularly beneficial for dogs which may be missing a front or rear leg. Constructed from dense buoyant material and being fixed around the dogs neck keeps the animals head and consequently its nose and mouth clear of the water allowing the animal to breathe easily even when tired. As the hole for the animals neck is smaller than the animals head when the device is fastened properly it cannot slip off in the water. Unlike current canine water safety vest designs this device has no straps around the dog's body which may become entangled with seen or unseen debris in waterways.
