Kayaking sounds really cool. Did you take any sort of lessons? It is very important to be safe.
Not really, I ithink it's pretty straight forward so no need for lessons! Do you know what other precautions I should take? Especially when I bring my pet along!
If you have a kayak with two seats a dog could have its own seat. How big is your pet? 
I have a small chiwawa and a 120lb husky, I also bring my cat along sometimes!
Do you have life vests for them? Do your dogs swim?
My husky doesn't and obviously my cat hates the water! Do they have life vests for pets? I didn't know!
They sure do. Experts say even good swimmers should have them as you never know when one could become tired or injured.
True, I already lost 2 dogs in the past from drowning so I should look into it!
Sorry to hear that. Yes the vests come in many sizes and your pet wears it like a shirt. 
I'll try to see if Target has them...or just check petco!
Sure. At Petco you can bring your pet and try them on.
