Chihuahua Clothes Sizing Information

Ordering chihuahua clothes online can be fun and tricky. The tricky part is getting your dog's clothing size correct. The last thing you want is to spend all that money and end up with something too small or too large, that you have to send back to the store. Getting the correct chihuahua size is key.

Each chihuahua clothes designer has their own sizing scale and method, so how do you get the correct size? You have to measure your dog's: back length, chest girth, and neck width. Please see the below chihuahua size mapping.

When measuring your dog for size, it is best to use a soft tape measure. This will ensure the most accurate size, without hurting your dog. It is a good idea to measure your dog before ordering the chihuahua clothes, this will help to avoid ordering the wrong size. Keep the measurements handy, because most chihuahua clothing sites have the sizing information available. Read the sizing charts for EACH article of clothing you want to purchase. Also, get your chihuahua size every time he/she grows or gains/loses weight.

If your Chihuahua's measurements are in-between two sizes, always get the larger size. The reason you get the larger size is to take into account the fact your dog might grow, and also the clothing might shrink in the laundry. Also, you will want to order the larger size if you have a long haired chihuahua.
