Pet Hoodies & Sweaters Sizing Guide
Pet Hoodies & Sweaters Sizing Guide
Ensuring proper measurements is critical for pullover garments where chest girth and front leg clearance determine total comfort and mobility. Because pet proportions vary across breeds and body structures, measuring your pet prior to ordering guarantees an optimal fit.
How to Measure Your Pet
- Back Length: Measure along the spine from the base of the neck (where the collar rests) to the base of the tail.
- Chest Girth: Measure around the widest portion of the ribcage, directly behind the front legs. Always allow 1–2 inches of ease for comfort and natural movement.
- Neck Girth: Measure around the base of the neck where a collar naturally sits, allowing room for two fingers to slide underneath.
