Do I need an ESA letter or a registration to buy one?

No. Anyone can buy the vest on its own. If you would like your dog registered too, our registration kit with a certificate and a photo wallet card takes about three minutes.

Is there an official ESA vest?

No agency issues one, so any vest marked emotional support does the same job. Ours adds reflective lettering, a grab handle and patches you can take off.

What size does my dog need?

Measure round the widest part of the chest, just behind the front legs, and leave room for two fingers. The size finder on this page does the rest. Between two sizes, take the larger one.

Will it fit a very small dog or a cat?

The XS fits chests from 18 inches round. Toy breeds and most cats measure less, so measure before you order.

Can I swap or add patches?

Yes. The patches are hook-and-loop, and a Do Not Pet patch can sit beside them.

Peel off the patches, hand wash the vest in cool water with mild soap, and let it air dry.

How long does delivery take?

Postage to any US address is in the price. Most orders arrive in about two weeks; the leash is made to order and can take three.

What is the difference between an ESA vest and a service dog vest?

A service dog is trained to do specific tasks for a person with a disability. An emotional support animal helps by being there. This vest says EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, and we sell emotional support gear only.

Strangers ask to pet your dog less often.

Many dogs learn that the vest going on means an outing together.

Matching gear

The tag, the leash and the patch go with the vest.

Add any of them here and they join the vest in the same order and the same payment.

ESA collar tag

A round black tag engraved EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL, for the collar, so the message stays when the vest comes off.

Card looks better than I expected for the price.

Heather R.Yelp review

Wasn't sure if these kinds of sites were legit but the site itself is pretty transparent about what you're actually getting. I like that. Process was painless and the verification link works.
