Tejas in Alto,Texas.

DEVASTATOR KEVLAR VEST from Ugly dog is what I have run for the last couple of years and it has worked perfect. I havent had one cut through the vest covered areas. I would recomend it to anyone.
 I have 7 of these vests and use them 4 or 5 days a week.

best we found double tough and dog can swim like a fish

I like Tejas  Just tell him what you want and he will make it.  And if you live close enough you can take your dog up there and he will take mesurements to fit your dog

I use ugly dog gear

Are you talking about that little tiny bait shop/ hog dog shop in waurika or are you talking about a different one?

I use collars and vest from Valley Creek Supply, they have been good for me so far and are not real expencive, u can look them up under the name

It's my opinion that either L3 Outdoors Plates or Ugly Dog Vests are top shelf. I am using L3 because of the lightness and the fact that they won't waterlog and give dog more mobility and air circulation. But you surely couldn't go wrong with either.

i have run a devestator and now run a gaurdian kevlar, no complaints about either.

Hello, here is the vest I use www.custom-collars.com. They are light, tough, affordable all this with no rub spots. You did not ask about cut collars but wild boar usa gets my vote on cut collars. Later...

i was using houston and m kelly but now i am a ugly dog freak i just bought one of there vests and tested it out and i love it if u want the most coverage and protection buy from ugly dog it is great and great people as well 

Ugly Dog Ranch all the way, they have great products and the owner is ok too,,,,,,,,,,LOL

i use southern cross cut gear and ugly dog  both are goog havent had a problem with either

i use tejas in alto they have great collars and vest. never had no problems with them all my buddies use them to

I know L3 has made a lot of changes to his line of breastplates. They are not vests as most hunters in the US are used to seeing. They protect the dog by giving him 100% unrestricked motion. He has added a 3/4 lenght plate to his line that comes to the back of the ribs, and a three layer Kevlar+poly silk that is light and tuff. All the straps are biothane, and tracker mounts come standard. He also offers free repairs to all his customers and a discount for repeat customers. The type of vest or breastplate you buy will depend on the type of dog you are using. But most of all the dog should still have 100% natural movement. If it changes the way a dog moves at all its a hindrence not protection. The only draw back with the L3 plates is they are all custom ordered and can take some time to make.

yeah thats the place.. sorry so late on the reply.. i just noticed it.

I second the L3 vest.

 As far as houston leather vests they are a really good price but you get what you pay for. I have had a hog  cut through one like butter. I still have it as a reminder not to go cheap. 

tejas outdoors there vest r dang good 

just went this past weekend and picked up vest from a lady named Carla out of jonesboro, la, vest was pretty cheap she bout hoot gibsons old stuff, call her at 313-395-2481 or check out her website
hootgibsondogcollarsetc.com they are light weight and in exspensive

I am running L3 breast plate or a  Uglydog Devastator.

I've recently got the Guardian Kevlars from Ugly Dog Ranch and am very impressed with it. I will be picking up a 3/4 Kevlar vest real soon for one of my smaller dogs!

 Update 9/21: Got my 3/4 in a few days ago and am looking forward to showing it some action this weekend and will post up on it.

When is that TITAN going to be released!!??

Waurika okla , I live in west tx and they ship to me .always get it within 2 days

I believe the Titan is currently being field tested and should be offering unmatched dog protection to the public real soon!

I bought 2 short and 1 full lenght for custom collars, they are great vest and didn't cost an arm and a leg, i make my own cut collars for the bay dogs out of firehose and buy the ones on we use on the catch dogs

TEJAS - We have run Tejas for about 6yrs. No problems cutting through the vest, no rubbing the dogs. It is really nice gear. The only thing that we have added to our vests is the leg flaps. Firm believer in the leg flaps. Good vest and affordable! Good Luck!

If I was you and wanting a good cut vest I would buy a Tejas cut vest. I just got one from them the other day and let me tell you they will hold up to about anythin that you can think of. They are well worth the money that they ask for the cut vest.

I use all tejas vest and collars. never had any problems.
