Sizing Guide



How to Measure your Dog
Dog Clothing:
       Dogs come in many shapes and sizes. In order to make sure you are purchasing the right size clothing for your dog, please read the sizing chart for every item VERY carefully and match it to your dog's measurements not its size. Please follow the sizing guide to get the best comfort for your dog and to avoid any delays or costly return shipping fees. In order to take the measurements of your dog, please use a measuring tape for the following;
  Size Dog Clothes
1. Chest Size of your dogs chest, all the way round, directly behind the front legs and around the back and add an 1 inch for comfort. It is our opinion that this is normally the most important measurement for clothing. If it is too small, it will not fit, if it is too big, your little one will get caught in it and not walk comfortably.
2.
Back Length from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. This is the most common measurement for clothing, however the back length will not matter if the chest measurement is not appropriate, use this more as a guide to how low your shirt or dress will be on your baby's back.
3.
Neck a comfortable distance around your dog’s neck. This size should always be measured when sizing for a collar
4. If measurement falls between two sizes always select the larger size.
 
This is a general guide by breed to help you judge where your pooch may fall by size. Please note that this is not a substitute for measuring your dog.
