    Provides good visibility for your dog in thick grass and doesn't chaff the dogs armpits.
    Pros
    • Good vis
    Cons
    • I haven't tried it in thick cattails yet but it may slide around a bit.

    Don't Change a Thing

    I bought my first one 8 years ago, & it is now being used on a smaller dog. Just bought a medium for my 64# shorthair. Easy on & off, cool, highly adjustable, no armpit rub spots, no drag in the water, and are highly visible.

    Perfect, easy to put on, light and not to hot if the temperatures are higher- love it for my 2 Shibas
    Pros
    • Easy to put on
    • Right amount of fabric, dog is not bothered with a too warm vest

    Visibility
    June 16, 2023
    The first one I ordered was too small but, that was due to my mistake in measuring. The second one fit perfect. This is a great vest for warm weather because it leaves the entire under side of my dog open to dispel body heat on long hard chases and helps prevent him from getting too overheated while at the same time giving him very good visibility in thick brush. It stays relatively centered on his back, which makes him easily recognizable as a dog and not a wild animal. In an area where there are a lot of deer hunters and poachers, this is extremely important.

    P.S Here are a couple shots of Eli decked out. He's about 80-85#s, and he's wearing a size large.
    Pros
    • cost, visibility, fit, function, and it's very easy to put on and take off
    Cons
    • So far, none that I can think of.

    Fits well and helps me see my dark haired dog much better in the woods.
    Pros
    • Visibility
    Cons
    • More descriptive sizing info would be helpful.

    Good Visibility
    April 15, 2022
    Vest works well...some slipping around as my dog runs (GSP..runs like crazy!) Using it over the skid plate, which is awesome and super necessary - for added visibility as skid plate does not offer enough. This Mendota Visi-Vest has a great deal of room for adjustments.
    Pros
    • Plenty of strap adjustments
    Cons
    • Has a tendency to shit a bit during high activity, when used by itself.

    Durable and Comfortable
    December 16, 2021
    Love that I can attach this to my dog no matter what the weather is, if he's wearing nothing or wearing a heavy parka. It's reflective and durable grade material. I like that it snaps in place because he rubs up against trees and will often take off a jacket that is velcroed on.

    Happy with my purchase
    August 28, 2021
    Vests haven't been used yet but seem to be made well with material to last more than one season and are adjustable.
    Pros
    • Bright enough to see my dogs in woody and tall brush
    Cons
    • None at this time

    Vest Worked Well
    January 11, 2021
    Brand new vest used on 3 day pheasant/quail hunt in Kansas. Vest worked well and stayed centered on dog's back.
    Pros
    • Easy to put on, stayed centered on dog's back.
    Cons
    • None.

    Love this high visibility dog vest
    December 30, 2020
    Our family dog enjoys her walks in the woods, so it was important to me for her to be visible. This vest is perfect and better than expected. The vest secures in multiple places to keep it in place. It is lightweight, highly visible and reflective. I am very pleased with the quality.
    Pros
    • Lightweight, reflective and highly visible
    Cons
    • None

    Review for Mendota Visi-Vest Dog Visibility Vest
    January 9, 2016
    Have used it 3 days now on a hard running setter in some very thick, very thorny Pennsylvania grouse cover. It is very durable and does not come off. The only thing I would change would be to have it show at little more orange on the sides of the dog.

    My German Shepherd and Lab wear these vests out in my woods during hunting season. From afar I can see them, and they stay in place. The dogs don't seem to mind and wait while I put them on every morning. They are durable, bright and I highly recommend them.

    November 14, 2015
    A well made product, easy to put on and remove. Great price and quick shipping by Gun Dog Supply, as always. The only negative I have is that the order form asks for a size. The physical size of the vest does not change with size, rather only the straps. It looks a little lost on my 120 lb. Shepherd for which I order this item for.

    Easy to apply. He doesn't even mind wearing it. It's like it isn't even there! I feel better knowing he is visible during hunting season.

    I have not had a chance to use them yet, but they are well made and the design should make my dogs easily visible when in the woods with me.

    Functions as intended, but shifts off to 1 side when dog is in motions or light brush. It also is hard to keep clean when work around hunting camp.

    January 19, 2015
    Love this lightweight, sturdy vest! There are plenty of adjustment options, and it stays in place, even in the most challenging cover. The reflective edges are also a nice touch. I liked this so much that I got 2 more for our non hunting dogs, so I could see them better when they run thru the woods.

    The Mendota vests are the most durable safety vests I've found, whether in the Grouse woods of Northern WI or the prairies of the Dakotas

    September 20, 2014
    I like that the vest is adjustable and does not attach to the collar. We sure feel better knowing that the dogs are easy to see in the woods, not only by us but other hunters. Thank you for the prompt service.

    September 17, 2014
    This is a great product. Had a different style, but kept falling off and finally lost it. This one stays in place and really visible. And the dog isn't bothered by it at all. GREAT STORE TOO. They ship their stuff fast. Thanks.

    Review for Mendota Visi-Vest Dog Visibility Vest
    May 10, 2014
    This is a very nice vest for visibility and strength. The dog goes through barbed wire, and the vest has not been torn, and it appears to be just enough coverage. The only reason I have not given 5 stars is that at the neck the vest slips to the side. I have the Mendota vest with pockets on either side, and that stays centered.

    It fits my dog just fine and is easy to put on and adjust. We take long walks, sometimes after dark, and I want her to be visible. This fits the bill perfectly. Thank you.
