How to Measure Your Pet
Follow these simple steps to get accurate measurements for the perfect-fitting products every time.
1
Get a Soft Tape
Use a soft, flexible measuring tape. A cloth tailors tape or a piece of string marked with measurements works perfectly.
2
Measure the Neck
Wrap the tape gently around the base of the neck where the collar naturally sits. Leave room for two fingers.
3
Measure the Chest
Measure around the widest part of the chest, just behind the front legs. This is critical for harnesses and clothing.
4
Measure the Length
Measure from the base of the neck (where the collar sits) to the base of the tail along the back.
5
Check the Weight
Your pet's weight helps refine the size recommendation, especially for beds and crates. Weigh them or check their last vet visit.

💡 Pro Measuring Tips
Getting accurate measurements ensures your pet stays comfortable and products last longer.
- Measure while your pet is standing normally — not stretched or curled.
- Take each measurement 2–3 times for consistency.
- Always round up to the nearest half inch for comfort.
- For growing puppies, choose a size adjustable or one step up.
- Measure after a meal, not on an empty stomach, for the most accurate girth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still not sure? Check out answers to the most common sizing questions we receive.
What if my pet falls between two sizes?
+
If your pet's measurements fall between two sizes, we always recommend sizing up — especially for clothing, beds, and harnesses. Our adjustable products (collars, harnesses) offer room to accommodate both measurements comfortably. When in doubt, contact our pet care team for personalized advice.
How do I measure a long-haired or fluffy dog?
+
For long-haired breeds, press the measuring tape firmly against the fur to get close to the actual body measurement, rather than measuring around the full fluff. This ensures the product fits properly even if the coat is trimmed or naturally thins with seasons.
My puppy is still growing — what size should I buy?
+
For growing puppies, choose products with adjustable features like extendable collars and harnesses. For beds and crates, size based on their expected adult size. Our adjustable puppy collection is designed specifically to grow with your pet over 3–6 months.
Do your size charts work for cats too?
+
Yes! The XS and SM sizes in our charts often work well for cats. Measure your cat the same way — neck, chest, and body length. Our cat-specific products have their own dedicated size chart available on each product page.
Can I return an item if it doesn't fit?
+
Absolutely. We offer a hassle-free 30-day return and exchange policy on all items. If the size doesn't work out, simply initiate a return through your account and we'll send the correct size at no extra cost. We want your pet — and you — to be completely happy.
How do I find the right bed size for my pet?
+
Measure your pet from nose to the base of the tail while they're standing. Add 2–4 inches to this number, then match it to the bed's length dimension in our chart. If your pet likes to stretch out fully or curl up in a big ball, always go one size larger for maximum comfort.
