Service Dog Benefits

Can I order a vest without registration or a doctor’s letter?

Yes. Anyone may buy a service dog vest; no registration or doctor’s note is required. A vest alone does not make an animal a service dog-the dog must be individually trained to perform disability-related tasks, and the handler may need a valid doctor’s letter for certain accommodations.

According to ADA guidelines, staff may only ask two questions: whether the dog is a service animal and what tasks it is trained to perform. No details about your disability can be requested.

How to Pick the Correct Service Dog Vest Size

Proper sizing keeps your dog comfortable during long wear. Use a measuring tape to check chest girth—leave two fingers of space between the tape and your dog’s body. The vest should not pinch the neck or shoulders; if the skin folds, the size is too small. Choose XS only for toy-size dogs.

In addition, for quick reference on the correct size, check out our infographic on the average leash size for a breed in adulthood. Keep in mind that this is only an average and it’s more effective to consider weight and the higher parameters indicated. We have service vests for large dogs that are specifically designed to provide comfort, visibility, and functionality for both the working dog and its handler.

Use the infographic below to compare leash and vest sizes. Weight is often the most reliable sizing indicator.
