"This is a great vest that is comfortable for my dog, and it fits perfectly. The only problem is that the nylon bristles seem to come off the Velcro strap easily. I've had to add a zip tie. The company was fantastic and responded very quickly. I think it just needs a couple of adjustments."
"Great vest, ordered accordingly to sizing chart, fits well. Ordered a second set of spikes. We have a giant owl and coyotes in our area."
"Item was as described. Fast shipping."
"The spikes are fine. Since the vest has years in it yet, it’s unfortunate that I had to order the spikes as a replacement for the set that were lost due to the Velcro wearing out. It won’t be easy, but I will be sewing the corners of the spike strips to the vest so as not to lose them again."
"I got two of them, back in 2020 and I used them every day for my puppies They love having them on, because they are light and it’s like a shield for them, well made, durable and fit them perfectly. Luckily they never have to worry about getting attacked by wildlife but it’s all over the place in my neighborhood because we live by a lake, I ordered a couple of replacement items because the Velcro was wore out and they sent me a quick replacement item with an extra spike collar. Super nice, I had a good experience with them and I highly recommended them, only if you love your puppies, of course 🐶"
"Such a relief for me when my dog has this on when we go on hikes. He’s off leash and happily exploring. A good deterrent for coyotes!"
"My 12lb. Feist was chewed up by my two larger dogs. I got a small and a medium vest and both fit her. The medium didn't slide left or right as much as the small. I'm a retired Army Special Forces operator so I've used a lot of nylon, cordura, and various materials in our combat harnesses. These vests are made fine but damn the owners sure want to get rich."
"The Coyote Spikes vest with the Velcro spike system is an outstanding product that delivers exactly what it promises—real protection and peace of mind. The vest is well-made, durable, and thoughtfully designed without restricting my dog’s movement. It fits securely and stays in place, even during active outdoor adventures. The Velcro spikes are a game-changer. They’re easy to attach, stay firmly in place, and add an extra layer of deterrence that truly makes a difference. I appreciate that the spikes are removable, allowing flexibility depending on where and how we’re using the vest. What I love most is the confidence this product gives me. Knowing my dog has an added layer of protection against predators lets us enjoy hikes, training, and outdoor time with far less worry. High-quality materials, smart design, and clear attention to safety—this vest is worth every penny. I highly recommend Coyote Spikes to any dog owner who spends time outdoors and wants the best protection available for their dog."
"We live in an area densely populated with coyote. Our girl is about 35 pounds and definitely a lover not a fighter. She has a coyote vest, collar and throat guard. She is usually in her vest and throat guard, but sometimes just collar, depending on the situation. Very well make product; kevlar material and high quality velcro. Feel much safer when we're outside!"
"We feel so secure letting our Bella run around our acre with her Coyote Vest in bright YELLOW with tall ORANGE whiskers and short and SHARP spikes…she truly looks scary and definitely INEDIBLE to any Coyote!!!!"
