Great buy, good quality, accurate fit

I received this today; our dog was hit by a car last month and somehow survived despite head injuries, very lucky. We live in the woods and brush/trees often conceal his whereabouts. This solves that issue, plus a full fence will be going up on our property soon! Although as you can see by the pic he is less than thrilled with wearing it (won't look at me!) I am relieved to have something to make him more visible when we are hiking and also on our property/extra visibility if he does escape towards the road again. It's probably my computer monitor that makes the listing pic look like the vest is simply a yellow orange...it is much more vivid in real life. This thing is BRIGHT. It is true hunter's *neon* orange, and as you can see from the pics attached, the reflective straps are VERY reflective (that's just my cell camera flash in a lighted room). If you are looking for a fashion accessory for your pooch, this is something out of a hunting catalogue not Doggie Vogue but visibility is exactly what I was after. Our dog is about 60 lbs, Border Collie/Springer Spaniel mix, a little on the barrel-chested side...he measures about 33" circumference at the widest spot on his rib cage and a size L fits him perfectly with plenty of room to adjust the straps. I could easily cut the excess strap off but there is about 4" extra around his neck and about 3" extra strap at his waist. So far it appears very well made yet the fabric is nice and light...and as someone whose dog goes nuts listening to crinkly fabric, I can say that this is not crinkly or loud at all. In fact he is now fast asleep wearing it indoors. I'll update the review with wear and tear feedback once we've had it for a few weeks.
