Abstract:
An improved aquatic flotation device particularly useful for dogs. The preferred embodiment of the device includes a relatively flat rectangular platform supported by two floats located on opposite sides of the platform. Each float is connected by two or more straps to the platform. The device is designed so that it can be thrown from shore or from a boat, and land in a manner that the platform is submerged about 1 to 8 inches without a load, and approximately 2 to 15 inches with a load. When a person or a dog attempts to crawl onto the platform, the platform will tip toward the animal to permit the animal to climb aboard the platform. The platform will then stabilize in a level position. The device thus allows for mounting and dismounting with little or no assistance from an outside source.
