Since 1994, working dogs and handlers have been testing our gear in diverse environments. It's been so essential to our development, we have a dedicated program to craft specialized gear just for their unique needs.

Although this specialized gear was previously reserved only for official working dog handlers and organizations, we believe in and support the critical role of working dogs in our society. Highly trained service dogs offer access and often freedom for humans with disabilities, and so we are excited to announce select styles of our working dog line are now available for service dog recipients to purchase at ruffwear.com.

Although our goal is to make our specialized gear more accessible to dogs and their partners who rely on them to survive and live life to the fullest, we acknowledge some individuals may misrepresent untrained dogs as service animals by buying a vest.We'd like to remind you that not only is this illegal, it can risk the reputation and access of all working and service dogs. Please shop responsibly.
