All information give is for reference only, you need to actually measure your pet to ensure sizes are correct before purchase.
Getting the right fit for your dog is essential for their comfort and safety. Use our guide below to measure your dog correctly and find the perfect size for our harnesses, collars, and leads.
How to Measure Your Dog:
- Neck: Measure around the base of your dog's neck where a collar would sit. Keep the tape snug but not tight — you should be able to fit two fingers underneath.
- Chest/Girth: Measure around the widest part of your dog's chest, just behind the front legs.
- Back Length: Measure from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.
- Weight: Weigh your dog for an additional size reference.
