How to measure your Sausage
Need a little help sizing up your Sausage dog? Don't worry, we've got you covered! Take a peek at our measuring guide and simply check your Sausages measurements against each items size chart. If you need an extra hand you can drop us a email with their measurements and we'll help you find the perfect size.
NECK MEASUREMENT
Measure around the thickest part of the neck. Allow for one finger between the tape and the body.
BACK MEASUREMENT
Measure the length of the body. Don't include any neck and stop where the tail starts.
CHEST MEASUREMENT
Measure around the widest part of the chest behind front legs. Allow for one finger between the tape and the body.
Measuring tips!
1. Ensure your Sausage is standing when you measure them.
2. If your wriggly Sausage won't stand still for you, try measuring them when they are eating or ask someone to help you.
3. Round any measurements that aren't a whole number up to the next nearest number.
4. Allow a 1 finger gap between your Sausage and the measure so that your measurements are not too tight.
6. If you don't have a soft measuring tape, use string or a shoe lace to measure each area on your Sausage and then measure the string/lace against your measure tape/ruler.
7. Top tip - measure 2 or even 3 times and write down each measurement. We know Sausages can be wriggly so it’s a good idea to measure a few items to get it correct.
