Start with the harness
Measure around the widest part of your dog’s chest and compare it with the product’s size chart. A harness should feel secure without restricting the shoulders or rubbing behind the front legs.

HELPFUL TO KNOW
Walk questions, answered.
How do I measure my dog for a harness?
Measure the chest around its widest point, usually just behind the front legs. Check the specific product size chart and leave enough room to slide approximately two fingers beneath the harness.
Should a small dog wear a harness or collar for walks?
Many small-dog parents prefer a well-fitting harness because it distributes pressure across the body. Your dog’s needs are individual, so choose equipment that fits securely and ask a qualified professional if your dog has a medical or mobility concern.
How do I know whether a leash is suitable for a small dog?
Look for appropriately weighted hardware, a comfortable handle and a length that suits where you normally walk. The leash should feel secure without being unnecessarily heavy for your dog.
