Vests

So, you’ve got yourself a dog, you want to train him for service work but you don’t know where to buy a vest. Look no further.

The two companies below sell vests and harnesses for service dogs. Just click on the photos to be taken directly to the manufacturers websites. When you click on the links you are being taken to an external site, the Service Dog Academy has no control over the manufacturers or their products.

The Best Vests Around

After years of wearing and replacing SitStay’s vest, we have switched to the vests from ActiveDogs. Although they are more expensive, they are Made In America, are completely customizable and in my opinion will outlast my currently 2 year old service dog Liame’s daily abuse.

The Other Vests

We used SitStay’s vests for 4 years. They are decent vests and good for those starting out in the service dog world. I especially like them for puppies. They are easy to get on and off, fold up small and if your dog chews up their training vest, your only out $60-$75.

Currently we do not sell service dog vests. However, if you are a service dog training client of ours we will order a vest for you.

About

The Service Dog Academy is a PET and service dog training school located in the West Seattle neighborhood of Seattle, WA. We train your dog using a combination of both private in home training sessions as well as obedience classes for both adult and puppy dogs. We use humane and positive training methods to quickly address your dogs behavioral problems (including anxiety, aggression, potty training, biting, jumping, stealing, separation anxiety and barking). When you train your pet dog with us 100% of the profits go towards supporting the low cost service dog training program. Training with the Service Dog Academy is a great way to "pay it forward" while getting something in return. We are pleased to announce that in July we will start serving the Beacon Hill area with adult obedience dog training classes.
