Dog Harness Chart

Dean Cattell · Nov 10, 2019

I was just looking on the web site to see the different options for harnesses. (Considering one for my dog) I think it would be a great idea to have a chart made, maybe with two or three main measurements to see what harness would fit your dog, and if there is more than one option.

I don't have a dog but have shown some friends the dog gear and one of them mentioned how do they know what will fit their dog since they have a tiny tiny dog lol. So think this is a good suggestion to have a page on the website that charts all the dog item sizes instead of having to go page to page to see the sizing of it.

Re-sorting the sizes and charts is an ongoing process; for now each is still separately made with its own unique structure and varying measurements. We hope to one day not have to trouble folks through re-measuring whenever we release a new design so that y'all can stick to the same size for all 1TG gear.

What I was thinking is if a person took two or three key measurements ie. length and neck and then compared them to a chart they could see what options were available. Right now you have to look at the picture and decide if your dog is comparable in size to the one in the picture. How does a person decide which harness might be the best fit?

My dog is around 90 pounds, he’s not huge or small, if We took all the breeds and put them together I’d say he’d be a large. I ordered the large but it is just a bit too big, he has used it everyday rain, snow or sun. It is fantastic. One time my son fell off his bike and I parked mine to go check on him and I look and the dog is next to me, he pulled out of the harness he was hooked to on the bike.
sizing would be my only concern

Mine too. It’s the only reason I haven’t ordered one for my dog.

We use ours everyday, and I would highly recommend it. But, looking back I should’ve ordered a medium.

Yes each dog harness has its own sizing chart (see example below), or do you mean the instructions could be improved?

I was thinking that you could have all the harnesses listed say on the side, and then have the key measurements across the top, then people could see what harnesses would fit their dog.

Kind of like a comparison chart, yes? We have so many harnesses to date; may need to categorize them either by structure or function.

Exactly! A comparison chart

Different style within one chart and easy to compare. Cool!

Hey guys, an extention from the conversation of sizing and comparisons, what do you guys think about gear segmentation for our dog product line like this:

HARNESSES
1. Everyday Use
2. Outdoor
3. Service Dog
BACKPACKS
COLLARS
LEASHES
TOTES/POUCHES (treat totes, poop bag pouches)
OTHERS (dog beds, recovery collars, etc.)

The main goal is to make browsing easier so that people can differentiate between harnesses. Any input would be appreciated!

The existing pictures and measurements are helping! I was on a EDC FB page today. Someone was looking for a harness, I recommended OneTigris and he made the purchase. He said it was easy to pick the size.

Thank you Dean.

The function we discussed above can provide users a more clear comparison. They can know which harness/vest can fit by fill in the measurements of his/her dog. Hope it can be realized in the future.
