MEASUREMENT GUIDE

Please use a measuring tape to measure around the neck, breast and the body length of your dog and match it against the relevant size information given on the product info page.

Chest: Measure the thickest part of the chest. (Usually behind the two legs) 

Neck: The girth of the neck 

Length: Make sure your dog is standing properly, not sitting or laying down. Measure along the dog's backbone from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.

General:

 

  1. There are no standard sizes for pet clothing and accessories.
  2. We highly recommend you measure your pet precisely to ensure an accurate fit.
  3. It is not reliable to purchase items based on your pet's breed or weight. There are many different kinds of breeds and even then, your dog's size can vary significantly within any given breed.
  4. If your pet's measurements fall in between two sizes, we suggest ordering the larger size.
  5. Once you have taken the measurements as described above it should be easy to determine the correct size you require from the individual product chart.

 

Coats and Jumpers:

 

  1. Please take the measurement of your dog's length.
  2. Match this measurement against the product coat/jumper size drop down menu.

 

Hoodies

 

  1. Please measure your dog's neck, chest and length
  2. Compare the measurements against the specific product in the size drop down menu.
  3. When selecting the product size always ensure that the neck and chest are big enough to fit your dog. The length is not as critical since hoodies do not necessarily have to be worn as "full length" clothes.

 

Collars

 Please take the measurement around your dog's neck, preferably using a fabric tape measure.

  1. Don't forget to allow for two fingers to be able to fit between the collar and the dog's neck
  2. Add an extra inch to ensure a comfortable fit for your dog
  3. All size details can be found on the specific collar on the size drop down menu. Please check each collar as sizes vary between products

Pet Carriers

  1. Please take the measurement of your dog's length as per the diagram above.
  2. Match this measurement against the product carrier size
  3. The Carrier size given is the maximum dog length the carrier will allow.
