Dog Size Chart and Measurement Instructions
You will need to take 3 measurements of your dog/cat: -
- A. Back length
- B. Chest girth
- C. Neck girth
Choose your size from the 10 sizes available below according to your dog’s chest girth measurement (B). The neck girth is flexible as it is knitted in a rib. The back length may vary.
If you need to alter the back length, then see my course on ‘How to Alter the Length of your Doggy Coat’.
If you would like to learn how to personalise your doggy coat then here's the link to my course on 'How to Personalise your Knitwear'.
