Doggy Life Vest

I saw a picture on a web site of a dog riding in the cargo area of a kayak. I showed it to Bonzi and he appeared to be interested. So I did a little research and and it looks like, with a few basic safety precautions, it can be done.
So we'll give it a whirl. I ordered a CFD for Bonzi, small size. For the uninitiated, CFD stands for Canine Flotation Device. Of course.

It should be here in time for River Trip #4.

At some point I'll also get another paddle tether -- those coiled plastic cords that stretch out. I can attach one end to the CFD the other to my belt loop. If Bonzi falls in or jumps in to chase ducks I can reel him back.
