How to Measure Your Italian Greyhound

Measurements are needed for all coat orders. You will need your Italian Greyhound's or Whippet's weight, neck, length, and chest circumference measurements in order to select the correct size and place an order. Remember that our coats are breed specific, so Italian Greyhound and Whippet sizes are unique to the breed and not intended for another breed.

After measuring your dog, choose the correct size for your order. If your Italian Greyhound or Whippet does not match the proportions in the table below, please send us the exact measurements for a custom size to get the perfect fit!

Tools Needed Measuring Tips

Use a soft measuring tape.

Measure accurately as shown.
  • NECK (N): Measure the circumference midway between the ears and base of neck.
  • LENGTH (L): Measure along the back from between the shoulder blades to the base of the tail.
  • CHEST (C): Measure around the widest/deepest part of the chest — usually right behind the front legs.
