How to measure
- Chest: widest point behind the front legs, tape snug but not tight.
- Neck: where the collar sits, allowing two fingers.
- Back length: base of the neck to the base of the tail — this decides whether a coat covers or rides up.
- When between sizes, size down for coats with a belly strap, up for pullover knits.
Market fit differences we build for
European block
Deeper chest, shorter back, wider neck opening — matches the breed mix (Spaniel, Retriever, working breeds) and the preference for a closer fit.
US mass block
Slightly longer body, more generous neck, bigger size run including XXL/3XL — matches breed mix and the "room to grow" retail expectation.
