How to Measure Your Dog for a Harness or Collar

 

Careful measurement is key to ensuring your dog’s comfort and the perfect fit of our products. If you need any assistance please do not hesitate to contact us.

Use a soft tape measure (not a steel one) and have your dog standing squarely. Measure in centimetres.

 

HARNESS:

  • Girth Measurement: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your dog’s body, just behind the front legs. Allow for two fingers of space for comfort. If your dog is near the upper end of a size range, consider sizing up, especially for certain breeds.

  • Head Loop Measurement: Measure the head at its widest point by making a loop with the tape that easily slips on and off. This is NOT their neck measurement.  This can be crucial for deep-chested breeds like daschunds, staffies, or pugs or for breeds with fluffy ears eg. cockapoos. See list below.

  • Chest Strap Measurement: Measure from point B to D, as shown in the diagram.

 

Size Guide for Head Loop (Not Girth Sizes):

  • Size 0: up to 30cm
  • Size 1: up to 31cm
  • Size 2: up to 38cm
  • Size 3: up to 43cm
  • Size 4: up to 50cm
  • Size 5: up to 54cm
  • Size 6: up to 60cm
  • Size 7: up to 70cm

 

COLLAR:

Measure around the neck (A-B on the diagram) and add 2-3 cm for comfort. Ensure the collar allows for two fingers of space to avoid being too tight.
