How to Measure Your Dog

To determine the best fit for your dog, use the following tips to guide you:

  • When measuring, try to have your dog stand in a relaxed stance.
  • Use a fabric or soft tape measure, and measure completely around the appropriate body part.
  • Keep the measuring tape a bit loose.

Please remember that every dog is different and might need to wear a size up, especially if your dog has longer, thicker fur, is larger boned, or has a deeper, fuller chest. This might apply especially to sweaters, dresses, or t-shirts, if you prefer a looser fit. Our coats are cut more generously to enable layering, so you might not need to go a size up, even if you prefer a looser fit.

When choosing the perfect fit for apparel, measure your dog’s back, neck, and chest:

  •  Back: Measure from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.
  •  Neck: Measure all the way around the neck at top of the shoulders.
  •  Chest: Measure girth all the way around broadest part of chest or ribcage.
