Since collars, harnesses, bow ties, and bandanas are custom-made, it's important to take accurate measurements to ensure the product fits your dog's build perfectly.

All measurements should be taken with a tape measure. If you don't have a tape measure, you can use a string and then measure the string's length with a ruler.

Collars

• Measure your dog's neck circumference where the collar naturally sits. Ensure the tape measure isn't loose, but also isn't strangling your dog. If the collar is too large, the dog can easily slip out, and if it's too tight, it will be uncomfortable or even dangerous for your dog.

Harnesses

• Neck circumference : This is not measured in the same place as the collar, but a few centimeters below (towards the shoulders).
• Chest circumference : This is where the back of the harness goes. The measurement should be taken 2 to 3 centimeters behind the elbow.
• Back length : This is the length between the point on the spine where the chest circumference was measured and the withers (the small bony point you feel at the base of the neck).
• Belly length : This is the length between the point under the belly where the chest circumference was measured and the tip of the sternum (bony point you feel at the base of the throat).

Bandanas and bow ties

• Measure the neck circumference as indicated for collars and add 5 centimeters.
