Size Guide
Getting the right size makes a huge difference for comfort and safety — especially for wearable items like harnesses, boots, and cooling vests. Here's how to find the best fit for your pet.
General Dog Size Chart (by Weight)
| Size | Weight | Example Breeds |
|---|---|---|
| XS | Under 8 lbs (3.5 kg) | Chihuahua, Teacup Yorkie |
| S | 8–15 lbs (3.5–7 kg) | Pomeranian, Small Terrier |
| M | 16–30 lbs (7–14 kg) | Beagle, Cocker Spaniel |
| L | 31–55 lbs (14–25 kg) | Labrador, Border Collie |
| XL | 56–90 lbs (25–41 kg) | German Shepherd, Golden Retriever |
| 2XL / 3XL | Over 90 lbs (41 kg) | Mastiff, Great Dane |
This is a general guide only — breed and body shape vary, so measuring your pet directly (below) is always the most accurate method.
How to Measure Your Pet
- Neck: Measure around the base of the neck, where a collar would normally sit. Leave two fingers of slack.
- Chest girth: Measure around the widest part of the chest, just behind the front legs.
- Length: Measure from the base of the neck to the base of the tail, along the back.
- Paw width (for boots): Measure across the widest part of the paw while your pet is standing and weight-bearing.
Use a soft measuring tape where possible, and measure while your pet is standing in a relaxed, natural position for the most accurate result.
Sizing Tips
- Always check the individual size chart in the product photos, since sizing can vary slightly between styles.
- If your pet's measurements fall between two sizes, we generally recommend sizing up, especially for growing puppies or pets with thick coats.
- For adjustable items (like collars and harnesses with buckles), choose the size that fits your pet's current measurement with a little room to adjust.
