What if my dog is between two harness sizes?

To find your dog's perfect harness size, simply follow our harness measuring guide.

This should guide you to which of our three harness sizes will work best for your dog. But what if you have measured your dog and their front and back measurements fall on the borderline between two harness sizes?

When a dog is on the borderline between two sizes, we always suggest choosing the smaller of the two, as it ensures a snug fit which will make the harness nice and escape-proof (and is comfier for your dog too, as the harness won't move around or rub as they walk).

Because of the way the harness is designed, there is a little bit of give and take between the front straps and back straps:

  • If your dog needs just an extra cm or half inch at the back, you can loosen the front straps just a little to give them the extra adjustability they need at the back.

  • Or, if your dog needs an extra cm or half inch at the front, you can loosen the back straps just a little to give them the extra adjustability they need at the front.
