How to Measure Your Large Dog for the Perfect Pajama Fit: A Step-by-Step Guide
Nov 14,2024 | LovinPet
Step 1: Measure the Neck
Start with the neck to ensure the pajama neckline won’t be too tight.
- Use a flexible measuring tape and wrap it around the base of your dog’s neck, where their collar usually sits.
- Leave enough room to fit two fingers between the tape and your dog’s neck for a comfortable fit.
- Record this measurement to avoid any discomfort around the collar area.
Step 2: Measure the Chest Girth
Chest girth is critical for large breeds as it determines how the pajamas will fit around their torso.
- Measure around the widest part of your dog’s chest, typically just behind the front legs.
- Hold the tape snug but not tight; you should be able to fit a finger underneath for comfort.
- Record this measurement to ensure the pajamas aren’t too tight or too loose, allowing your dog to breathe and move freely.
Step 3: Measure the Back Length
Back length ensures full coverage without extra fabric bunching up.
- Start at the base of the neck (where the collar sits) and measure along the spine to the base of the tail.
- Write down this length to find pajamas that will cover your dog’s back well, keeping them warm without excess fabric.
Step 4: Measure the Leg Length (If Applicable)
For pajamas with full leg coverage, measuring the front leg length ensures that the legs aren’t too short or restrictive.
- Start at the top of the shoulder where the leg meets the body.
- Measure down to the paw, leaving some room for natural movement.
- Record this measurement so the pajama legs fit comfortably without riding up, which is especially important for active dogs.
Step 5: Check LovinPet’s Sizing Guide
Once you’ve recorded all measurements, compare them with LovinPet’s sizing chart on each product page. LovinPet’s comprehensive guide ensures you can select the most accurate size for your large dog.
Tip: If your dog’s measurements fall between sizes, it’s usually best to size up. A slightly relaxed fit is more comfortable, especially for sleepwear.
