When it comes to your pup, finding the perfect fit for their collar and harness is crucial for their safety, training, and overall comfort. That's why having not only the right gear but the right-sized gear is essential. Follow our guide below, along with our top 5 tips for an accurate fit, to ensure that your furry friend struts confidently and securely on every walk!
Top 5 Tips to Remember When Measuring:
- Supplies: A flexible measuring tape is the easiest tool to use, but if you don't have one, you can use a piece of string or ribbon and compare the sizing to a flat ruler.
- Snug but not Tight: We recommend being able to fit 2 fingers between the collar and their skin for a comfortable and secure fit during outdoor adventures.
- Measure Regularly: Dogs, like us, can experience changes in size over time. Make it a habit to measure your dog regularly, adjusting their accessories as needed.
- Size Up: If your pup falls between sizes, always choose the larger size for a better fit.
- Make It Fun! When measuring your pup or introducing them to a new collar or harness, make it a positive and enjoyable experience. Use treats or toys to create a positive association and never force them into anything they're uncomfortable with.
