What size bandana do I choose?

We strongly recommend measuring your pup’s neck using a soft measuring tape, then refer to the sizing guide below to choose the best fit. (A string/ruler works fine too!) 

All of our bandanas automatically come with one (1) set of snaps placed a bit above the maximum neck width for each bandana size. (We always allow about 2 fingers width of space above your pup’s neck measurement for comfort.)

So, if your pup’s neck measurement falls below the maximum width of a particular size, you can tie and snap it closed or customize it for a perfect fit by adding an additional snap! If your pup’s neck measurement is the maximum width of a particular size, no additional snap is needed.

One example: if your pup has a 10″ neck, you would order an XS and tie/snap it closed or add an additional snap. (Don’t forget to include your pet’s actual neck size in the order notes at checkout if you add a snap!)

Another example: if your pup has a 17″ neck, you’d order a SM with no additional snap and it would be a perfect fit. Remember, it will have a little extra space (about 2 fingers width) for comfort.
