jstankus I have this same boarbib from wildboar USA. I like it but honestly I have used it on a 80Lb RCD Cur and it rubs his front legs bad. Bad to the point that I don't use it anymore. I may be too big therefore causing it to hang down too low and rub his legs.
I also struggle with this and have a toolbox full of all kinds of vest. I agree with The Rednose 100% with regards to starting the dog in cooler weather and let them acclimate to the vest as summer comes on. My bulldog runs a SouthernStyle Bikini Suit that was actually bought from SouthernStyle before HardCore bought them out but I love this vest. To the point that I ordered a 2nd one from HardCore. It looks like it has been in a blender but is still holding up. It is light and very flexible but honestly I do believe it limits their movement to a point.
There is a guy in Texas that makes the Ausie style and is good to work with. I tried several different ones but I didn't end up with one that would fit. He ran wolfhounds if I remember correct. They ain't built like a FL Cur if you follow me. His vest are like the breastplates the Ausie guys use. Very open.
When you find one that works let me know, LOL. I am in North FL and we deal with alot of water also and humidity and heat. And we hunt right on through the summer. It is brutal to be honest with you.
