How To Measure A Dog For Clothing | Chewtorials

Описание: The perfect outfit isn’t just a human concept anymore. Dog clothing has become a fun way to personalize your pup by giving them their own sense of style, as well as adding an additional layer for when the weather is more than fur alone can handle. The availability of dog apparel is starting to match that of clothes for people and one crucial step for getting your dog the perfect duds is finding their measurements. Grab your tape measure and pencil, it’s time to play tailor as we teach you how to measure your dog for clothing.

First, gather your supplies. For this Chewtorial, you’ll need a tape measure and some treats to reward your dog for their good behavior.

Start at the base of their neck and wrap the tape measure around, close to their fur but allowing for two of your fingers to slip under the tape.

Next, you’ll measure their chest. This is the measurement that’ll influence the fit of their clothes the most. Starting just under their armpit, underneath their body, around their ribcage and over their shoulder blades.

Finally, you’ll measure their length. Stretch the tape measure in a straight line starting from the base of their tail to their withers. Withers is the technical term for the small indent between their shoulder blades.

Now you have all the required measurements to get your dog decked out. Chewy uses a sizing chart to help shoppers choose the right size dog clothing so use these measurements to compare with the sizing chart to ensure the perfect fit. Be sure to check out Chewy’s vast selection of pet apparel.
