Your Whippet is not just a lightning quick sprinter, they also love a cuddle session with you on the sofa. These stylish pups are easy going and friendly, but due to their small size and short coat they can be sensitive to cold temps, so keep them protected from the elements in Voyagers K9 Apparel.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR WHIPPET
STEP 1: MEASURE THE NECK
Measure around the base of the neck, where it meets the shoulders. Keep tape snug but not tight.
STEP 2: MEASURE THE CHEST
Measure around the widest part of the chest, just behind the front legs. Make sure your dog is standing and the tape is snug but not tight.
STEP THREE: MEASURE THE LENGTH
Measure from the withers (base of the neck, just ahead of the shoulder blades) to where the tail meets the spine. Keep the tape straight along the back.
To find your dog's size use these measurements and reference the size chart.
