Measure 1-3 fingers down from the chin: one finger for Italian greyhounds, two fingers for whippets and three fingers for larger sighthounds. Because of a sighthound's anatomy it is very important that the collar sits in the right place - roughly in the top third of the neck - so that it is neither too tight nor loose enough for the head to slip out.<\/p>\n<p>Use a soft tailor's tape and wrap it around the neck so it lies naturally without pressing.<\/p>\n<p>Compare the measurement with the sizes below and choose the one that fits best. If your dog is between two sizes, we recommend the larger one.<\/p>\n<p>Measure in the top third of the neck, closer to the head. A sighthound's neck widens toward the chest and the head is narrow, so a measurement taken too low gives a collar that is too big and can slip over the head.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"h-size-figure\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/house1888.com\/wp-content\/themes\/house1888\/assets\/size-guide-neck-en-c2.jpg\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1422\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"How to measure your dog's neck: measure in the top third of the neck, closer to the head, not by the chest.\"><\/figure>\n<h2>Wide collars<\/h2>\n<p>For whippets and other medium-sized dogs:<br \/>\nwide part 5 cm across and 18 cm long, strap 2 cm wide.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>M<\/strong> - for a neck of 25-28 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>L<\/strong> - for a neck of 28-33 cm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Fishtail<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>XS<\/strong> - for a neck of 16-21 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>S<\/strong> - for a neck of 21-25 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>M<\/strong> - for a neck of 25-28 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>L<\/strong> - for a neck of 28-33 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>XL<\/strong> - for a neck of 33-40 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>XXL<\/strong> - for a neck of 40-46 cm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"pavadeliai\">Leashes<\/h2>\n<p>Total length 257 cm, width 2 cm, made for medium-sized dogs.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"drabuziai\">Whippet clothing size chart<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"h-size-figure\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/house1888.com\/wp-content\/themes\/house1888\/assets\/size-guide-body-en-c6.jpg\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1440\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"How to measure a dog for clothes: 1 - back length, 2 - chest girth, 3 - neck girth, 4 - leg length.\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"h-size-table\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Size<\/th>\n<th>Back length<\/th>\n<th>Chest girth<\/th>\n<th>Neck girth<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">XS<\/th>\n<td>40-46 cm<\/td>\n<td>49-55 cm<\/td>\n<td>25-31 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">S<\/th>\n<td>45-51 cm<\/td>\n<td>55-61 cm<\/td>\n<td>28-34 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">M<\/th>\n<td>50-56 cm<\/td>\n<td>61-67 cm<\/td>\n<td>31-37 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">L<\/th>\n<td>55-61 cm<\/td>\n<td>67-73 cm<\/td>\n<td>34-40 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">XL<\/th>\n<td>60-66 cm<\/td>\n<td>73-79 cm<\/td>\n<td>37-43 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>In our photos, Juna and Nara wear size M.<\/p>\n<h2>Need help?<\/h2>\n<p>If you are not sure which size to choose, send us your dog's breed, weight, age and neck measurement <a href=\"mailto:info@house1888.com\">by email<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/house_1888\/\" rel=\"noopener\">on social media<\/a>.
