At Paws & Pattes, we want every pet to feel comfortable, supported, and stylish in our apparel and accessories. Selecting the right size ensures safety, freedom of movement, and long-lasting enjoyment of our products. This guide is designed to help you measure your pet correctly and choose the best fit with confidence.
🐾 How to Measure Your Pet
For the most accurate fit, always measure your pet before placing an order. Use a soft measuring tape and follow these steps:
- Neck Girth – Measure around the base of your pet’s neck where a collar would naturally sit.
- Chest Girth – Measure the widest part of your pet’s chest, just behind the front legs.
- Back Length – Measure from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.
- Paws Width (for shoes/booties) – Place your pet’s paw on a piece of paper, mark the widest points, and measure the distance.
👉 Always leave two fingers of space to ensure comfort and prevent tightness.

✅ Fit Tips from Paws & Pattes
- If your pet is between two sizes, we recommend sizing up for comfort.
- For growing pets, consider adjustable designs or one size larger.
- Monitor your pet during first wear – if they show signs of discomfort, the fit may be too tight.
- Wash and care for apparel as per the product label to maintain size and shape.
