Tips for Measuring
Dogs come is a large variety of sizes with some breeds having very different shapes. That's why at Del’s Ruggery as well as our standard range, we also make dog coats especially for Dachshunds, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Pugs and Greyhounds.
Notes:
- All Sizes are in Inches
- Measure from the base of neck to base of tail as illustrated (not where the collar sits).

- Make sure your dog is standing squarely with head up.
- Take the measurement more than once, as it is not easy if the dog is wriggling.
- Some breeds are a fairly standard size, as a guide the breeds below usually wear the sizes listed.
