Barc London Size Guides

Size guides for dog leads, dog collars, dog harnesses, dog coats from Barc London

Getting the correct fit for your dog's collar, harness and jacket is an important step to keeping them happy, healthy and comfortable while out on dog walks.

We always advise measuring your dog before buying them a new collar, harness or jacket to ensure you get the correct fit.

Dog Collars

Using a soft measuring tape, measure their neck at the widest point leaving space for two fingers to fit between the tape and the neck so it's not too tight. If your dog is between sizes, we suggest going up a size.

Please note: Vegan collars are slightly different in size to our previous Core Collection.

Raincoats - Version 2.

Version 2 of our popular raincoat has an expanded size range, meaning the fit and measurements are different to our original raincoats. Please double check measurements before purchasing.

For best results, use a soft measuring tape to get the following measurements:

  1. Chest: Place the tape around the widest part of your dog’s torso (usually just behind front legs) and wrap round until the points meet.
  2. Back: Start at the lower neck and run the tape to the base of the tail, along your dogs top line.
  3. Neck: Leaving space for two fingers to fit between the tape and the neck so it's not too tight, measure your dogs neck at the widest point.

Please note: fit may vary depending on dogs build, chest depth and shoulder placement.

Tip: If your dog is between sizes, we suggest going up a size so they have room.

Versatile Dog Leads

Our double ended dog leads come in just one size and are only suitable for medium-large breeds due to the clasp size.

Featuring 3 clips, this lead can be adjusted to a short, medium or longer lead length as and when required.

Allowing for versatility on dog walks, the idea is simple. One lead, one length - which can be easily shortened or lengthened to meet the needs of your dog and walking route.

Adjust the length of this lead to your desired fit:  

  • Short length: 104 cm
  • Medium length: 146 cm
  • Long length: 179 cm

Please note: Due to the larger clasp size, this lead is not compatible with our XS products and we do not advise using it with our S products.

Size chart measurements are as exact as possible. Actual sizes may vary 5% each way.
