📏 How to correctly measure your dog for the right size?
For your harness or collar to be comfortable and safe for your dog, it is very important to measure them correctly. Use a soft tailor's tape measure, and the dog should stand in a natural position during measurement.
🐕 HARNESS – measuring the neck and chest
You need two measurements for the correct harness size:
1. Neck circumference (front part)
Measure the lower part of the neck – where the front part of the harness will sit (not too high like for a collar).
2. Chest circumference
Measure the widest part of the chest, right behind the front legs.
The tape measure should be level and not too tight. There should also be space for two fingers here.
⚠️ Important: The harness must be snug enough not to slip, but it should not pinch or restrict movement.
🦴 COLLAR – measuring neck circumference
1. Measure the neck circumference where the dog usually wears a collar (somewhere in the middle of the neck).
2. The tape measure should be snug against the skin, but not too tight.
3. There should be room for two fingers between the neck and the tape measure – this ensures the collar will not be too tight.
👉 If the dog is between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size.
🐾 LEASH
When choosing a leash, consider:
1. The size and strength of the dog.
2. The purpose of use (walking, training, running).
3. The desired length and width of the leash.
For larger and stronger dogs, we recommend wider and more robust leashes.
