How to get the right size dog harness

I NEED TO GET THE RIGHT SIZE OR COLOR!

Right size replacement instructions for harnesses are below. For right color, or right size leashes, collars, or seat belts Click Here

BEFORE RETURNING YOUR HARNESS FOR A DIFFERENT SIZE, PLEASE SEE THE ADJUSTMENT AND RIGHT SIZE INFO BELOW:

Has it been fitted correctly?
Please take a moment to make sure the harness is a) adjusted correctly and b) put on your doggie correctly. Please watch the video below . . . even if you have seen it before.

  • Please note the "Scooch & Set" for proper fit. This is very important.
  • Once you find where you like the slidy side,  "set" it as described in the video. Now your harness is custom-tailored for your dog.
  • We want it "right" not "tight". Right means snug, 2-4 fingers can fit under the harness at the shoulder (where the reflective material is). See this on the video.
  • Because the harness pulls from one side, it 'bows' and 'gaps', and it doesn't look even. This is normal, and how it is meant to look.
  • The 'gap', when the harness 'bows' out, is part of the design. Don't tighten the harness because of it. The material, and your dog, are flexible; it isn't supposed to fit like skin-tight spandex.
  • You also might need to adjust it a few times to get it "just right".

 

 

 

 

Getting The Right Size Dog Harness

Getting the right size is easy. It can usually be done just by knowing  your dog's approximate weight.

YET, to totally make sure you get the right size, see the Girth measurement chart below. Girth is the measurement that goes over your dog's shoulders, right behind the front legs, and back up again. Like the red arrow shows. 

Please measure with your dog standing. Measure it as if it was the harness - not too tight, not too loose.

If your dog can fit in two size harnesses, we usually prefer the bigger dog in the smaller harness. If the measurement is at the very top of one size, then go up to the next size. If you still have sizing questions please email us your dog’s WAG (Weight, Age, Girth as described above and in the picture) and we will help you.

If you have a puppy, we have a Puppy Promise, where the next size up is just half price. Yes, even if you have a Great Dane.
