I picked up the same scheels vest for my male whpg this year. love the vest.
I’d bought one in October trying to protect a wound in my older dog. I was so impressed with the added visibility I bought one for my younger dog. I always thought my white dogs were visible in the field. The fluorescent colors definitely improve it.
my 3 year old griff ran full speed into a bent over tee post chasing a wounded rooster. hit him upper chest. he yelped rolled over on his back. I thought for certain the post penetrated his upper chest and might have seriously wounded him. I ran over and there was a small tear in the chest protector with no penetration. His chest developed a large bump for a few days. I monitored him and he was sore for a bit but he covered quickly the next day.
big believer in protective wear for bird dogs
