DOG Measuring Guide
Clothes, Harnesses, Buddy Belts, and Collars

For Dog Clothes:

 

Sizing Information  
A. Measure length of pet's back from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.
B. Measure neck circumference.
C. Measure the broadest part of the chest.

If the measurement is between sizes, we recommend going up one size. Also, if pet has a stout build, a deep chest, or is overweight, we recommend going up a minimum of one size for proper fit. If the dog is long-backed, like a Dachshund, a smaller size is recommended.

 
Size Fits Base of Neck to Base of Tail Fits Necks Fits Chests
X-Small Up to 8" 10"-16" 17"-22"
Small 8"-12" 12"-18" 22"-26"
Medium 12"-16" 14"-21" 26"-30"
Large 16"-20" 16"-23" 30"-34"
X-Large 20"-24" 18"-24" 34"-38"
XX-Large 24"-30" 18"-24" 38"-44"

For Dog Harnesses and Buddy Belts:

Measuring & Fitting

Step 1


Measure girth (full circle all the way around body, directly behind your pet's front legs), confirm weight, then determine size.
 


Step 2


To fit, place BB on ground topside down and position front legs through holes. The buckle always goes to your pet's left paw.
 

Step 3


Wrap BB around body and fasten it between your pet's shoulder blades. An ideal fit will allow enough room for a finger or two to slip underneath when you give a light tug up on the sliding o-ring.
 

When buckled, the BB should comfortably fasten at one of the three middle holes. There are five holes in total. If your dog is still growing the tightest hole is acceptable, as long as the BB still fits snugly. If your dog is wearing the BB over top of a sweater, the end hole is acceptable.
 

Step 4


Lastly, attach leash to sliding o-ring. Pet tags can also be attached here.

Collars:
Measure the circumference of your dog's neck about half way down the neck. Some dog breeds have necks that are wider than their heads (as in the case of Bull Dog and Pug breeds.) These breeds tend to "slip" their collars so they should be measured higher than the mid point. Always use a soft tape measure or if you don't have a soft tape, then use string and measure with your regular tape measure. If you are measuring for a choke type collar, you can have it sit lower on the dog's neck.


COLLARS and HARNESSES

Suggested Collar
& Harness Sizes

Adult Dog Size Chart:

This chart gives you a general guideline for selecting collars and harnesses for your breed of dog. If purchasing for a specific dog, it is advised to get the dog's exact neck size and add 4" for correct collar size. For dogs with 8", 10", and 12" necks, just add 2".
