How to measure your dog
When ordering a custom made dog coat, the key is accurate measurements.
In order for the coat to fit just as it should, you need to measure your dog's length, chest circumference, waist circumference, neck circumference, underbelly length, and chest width.
​
Measure the dog standing up, making sure to get all the measurements correctly.
​
Make your measurements in either cm or inch, and accurate (including decimals).
We recommend measuring your dog 2 times, as not all dogs stand perfectly still. The coat will be made according to your measurements.
Measuring guide - use a tape measure and measure twice
Neck (N) Measure the circumference midway between the ear and base of the neck
Chest Width (CW) Measure straight across the chest, and add a portion of the leg to allow for greater movement. Make sure to measure this correctly - otherwise the coat will hinder the dogs gait.
Length (L) Measure along the back from between the shoulder blades, to the base of the tail. Make sure the dog stands straight when measuring.
Chest circumference (C) Measure around the widest part of the chest - usually rigth behind the front legs.
Waist circumference (W) Measure the circumference of the waist at the skinniest part - usually right in front of the back legs.
Underbelly (U) Measure from behind the front legs to just in front of the back legs. This is especially important for male dogs.
