What size for my dog?

Almost every gear mistake is a sizing mistake. Set your dog's weight and build, and get the size class to shop in for a harness, crate, bed, and toys — plus the treat-calorie budget that keeps the trainer's pouch honest.

Size class

Extra small · 11 lbs

Daily treat budget: about 35 calories (the common ≤10%-of-diet guideline — your vet's number wins).

Harness size

XS in most brands (verify: chest girth typically 12–16 in)

Harness picks

Crate size

18–22" crate — 24" for the leggier end

Crate picks

Bed size

Small (~20–24" bed, 23" donut)

Bed picks

Toy sizing

Small / XS sizes only — large toys won't engage small jaws

Toy picks

Approximations for shopping, not veterinary advice. Brand size charts always win over letter sizes, and your vet's guidance always wins on calories and joint health.

Then verify with a tape measure

Weight puts you in the right aisle; a soft tape measure buys the right item. The three numbers worth writing down: chest girth at the widest point behind the front legs (harness size), length from nose to base of tail plus a few inches (bed and crate), and standing height at the head (crate). Brand size charts beat letter sizes every time — especially for long, low, and deep-chested dogs.

From there, the fitting guides go deeper: harness fitting, crate sizing, and the long-backed dog home setup.
