The company is great and responsive to customers' complaints. This vest is pretty good for fit, function and durability . . . except for the stitching on the straps. That needs improvement. Otherwise, I get one, possibly two seasons of moderate hunting out of it.

Worked very well, and protected my dog against brush and all the sticky things on an extended trip to Montana

I have worked as a hunting guide at a large, private upland game preserve for several years and I guide several hunts weekly from October through March. I have used Bird Dog Armor vests on my dogs for five years. The vests are visible to hunters and they help keep the dogs warm in winter conditions. The brush guard on the underbelly is a big plus when dogs run through brush and corn stubble. Unfortunately, the three nylon straps that hold the vest on the dogs consistently come unsewn. They have detached from virtually every Bird Dog Armor vest I have owned, which are several, and I have to take them to a seamstress who sews them back on with commercial-grade thread. The stitching around the leg holes also unravels. To their credit, Lion Country Supply has always replaced the vests. But it's a bother having the vest come off in the middle of a hunt. It's also time-consuming and costly to take them back and forth to a seamstress. This could still be a good protective dog vest so long as the manufacturer reinforces the straps and stitching.

I purchased 2 vest The vest my more aggressive dog had torn off one of the straps in the first cornfield. The other vest has held up just fine. The torn vest was replaced without any issues. Great protection for the dog.

All the protection my shorthairs need at a great value. Will never purchase another vest besides this one.

I have two of this armor vests. They work great for protecting my female GSP’s in heavy cover. I did have one dog that must have caught on a tree branch or heavy brush and tore a strap off along with the liner on one leg hole. I didn’t see this when it happened dew to the heavy cover. I’m glad the strap tore loose or she may have hurt herself trying to get loose. I have be ordering a replacement. These vest are the best I can find for a large upland dog. My GSP Female’s are 70lbs each. All muscle! Thanks for making this fine product! Kirk Ulven
