A safety, rescue, and recovery device that compressively secures to a limb of a user when inflated. The device can be easily adjusted to be negatively buoyant, neutrally buoyant, or positively buoyant before inflation depending on whether the application is safety, rescue, or recovery. The device may also be integrated into an article of clothing for certain applications. An elongated handle is attached to the device to provide a sliding attachment point for a rescue rope that automatically reduces torque applied to the limb of the user. Consequently, a rescue force applied to the rescue rope can act at a variety of angles along an arc relative to the device.

The inflatable floating device for a dog may be utilized in a swimming pool or any other body of water. The dog flotation device provides a way to keep a dog afloat wherein the dog can use its paws to swim. The dog flotation device has a seat that holds the dog within a flotation body, while allowing the belly of the dog to be in contact with the body of water, in order to cool down the dog as it swims. The dog is placed within the dog flotation device such that the dogs head is placed on the head rest and its hind area and tail are placed on the rear rest. These support the dogs head, keeping it above water. Straps are attached to the collar or the harness, securing the dog and making the dog feel as though it is being pulled on a leash.
