Skid Plates for Dogs

If you have a working or sporting dog than more than likely you know what a skid plate is.  For those of you who don't know or are new, proud owners of a working or sporting dog, let me explain what the skid plate is.

Simply put, a skid plate is protection for your working or sporting dog or dogs when you are out in the field. Skid plates are strapped around your dog with the plate covering their chest, stomach, and sides for protection of their vital organs when they are out working or playing in the field.  They can also be worn following surgeries to protect the post surgical wounds.  Either way, this is the way to go when you are trying to protect your dogs chest and abdominal regions.

There are many different brands of skid plates out there.  However, upon reviews and speaking with others who have experience with skid plates, the best on the market is the Mendota brand.  This brand allows for optimal mobility and complete comfort with its open back to keep the dog from over heating.  They come in different sizes, the straps are adjustable, and they are water resistant.  Not to mention it allows for good visibility.  You can buy more expensive skid plates on the market but you really do not need to when the Mendota brand more than gets the job done for a great price.
