Everything for SUP with your dog:
Lite Venture DogPad & life jacket for SUP with dog
Here you'll find everything you need for a successful start to SUP with your dog! Paddling on a stand up paddle board with your dog is an ideal leisure activity that can be planned together with your dog. With a little practice, your four-legged friend will stay calm and both of you can enjoy the ride. The Lite Venture Dog Pad helps the dog to recognise and keep its place at the front of the board. It also helps with training in advance, as you can get the dog used to its place during dry runs by letting it "sit" on its pad. This also works wonderfully in the living room.
Read further down the page about how the Malteser Freiburg rescue dog team trains its dogs with the pad and the SUP.
Please don't forget that your dog needs a suitable life jacket! You can also find out why further down on this page.
Dog pad for SUP with dog
Dog Pad
Suitable for all Lite Venture inflatables 11'6" to 14'0" in length: The Dog Pad fits all Lite Venture inflatable stand up paddle boards. The pad is securely fastened to the 9 D-rings and also to the handle of the board. It can be attached and removed quickly and easily. This protects the board and the four-legged friend stands / lies comfortably on the padded pad.
Ideal for training: With the Dog Pad, the dog can also be prepared for paddling away from the water, even from home: You can easily train him to "sit" on the pad and he learns that this is his place. The blanket is therefore already familiar when it comes to the water.
Product information according to GPSR
The dog pad is made of robust cordura and is padded. It is hard-wearing, non-slip and can also be easily cleaned of dirt by hand washing. Compared to neoprene, the Kordura material is also less sensitive to odours and dries more quickly. The pad is attached to the board's D-rings using clips on the underside.
The Lite Venture Dog Pad is most compatible with the Lite Venture iSUPs - or with a board that has at least six D-rings at the front. The iSUP series is specially designed so that the pad can be securely attached to 9 D-rings as well as to the handle of the board. It can be attached and removed quickly and easily.
The board is thus protected and the four-legged friend stands / lies comfortably on the padded pad.
Life jacket for your dog
"Life jacket? But my dog can swim!"
Yes, dogs can swim. But not for any length of time and not in all conditions. A good dog life jacket is characterised by a good fit, robust material and easy handling. It is also important to have a large handle so that the dog can be quickly and safely lifted out of the water and back onto the board. The SafeDog dog life jacket from Lite Venture® offers great functionality for water sports with dogs:
SafeDog dog life jacket
The lightweight life jacket for your dog is made of robust and dirt-repellent Cordura. It can be adjusted to your dog's chest circumference using three straps. On the outside, an orange colour and reflective applications contribute to visibility on the water. The inside of the waistcoat is a dirt-resistant grey.
The foam used is light and compartmentalised, making the waistcoat comfortable to wear. Thanks to the subdivision, it does not fit rigidly, but surrounds the chest ergonomically.
There is a handle on the back that you can use to safely lift your dog out of the water, for example if it has jumped off the SUP board and can't get back up on its own. A D-ring for attaching a lead or name tag completes this high-quality waistcoat.
Just like the UV rashguard, we have this product made in a sewing workshop for water sports equipment in Ukraine. With your purchase, you are supporting the seamstresses and a small company in difficult times.

Lite Venture Dog Pad with SUP board as training equipment for the Maltese Rescue Dog Squadron
Reading tip in the blog: The Mateser Freiburg rescue dog team uses the Dog Pad for their training sessions. The dogs can learn their balance and trust in their handler on the SUP. The pad helps to show the dog where its place is on the board. This can also be practised away from the water on land or in the home.

The Dog Pad fits all Lite Venture SUP boards
The inflatables SUP boards from Lite Venture are very stable and glide effectively thanks to their high rigidity. This means they are not sluggish or cosy boards - like many inflatables for SUP with dogs - but the faster alternative for paddlers who want to SUP with their dog but don't want to do without a touring board that glides well.
