What clothing does my dog need?
Suitable dog clothing protects your four-legged friend from cold, wind, or moisture depending on the model, without unnecessarily restricting their freedom of movement. The right size is crucial for a comfortable fit. Find out here when dog clothing is sensible and how to measure back length and chest girth correctly.
Back Length
The back length is measured with a flexible tape measure from the shoulder blades to the base of the tail. For an accurate measurement, your dog should stand straight.
The clothing must be long enough to optimally protect the back from cold or moisture, but should not cover the tail or restrict your dog's freedom of movement.
Chest Girth
The chest girth is measured behind the front legs at the widest point of the ribcage. Wrap the tape measure around your dog's chest.
Based on the chest girth, you can determine which cut is suitable for your dog: Regular, Wide Chest, or Long Back.
