The right size for a Shih Tzu
According to our guide, size S suits a Shih Tzu, for a neck circumference of about 25–35 cm. But every dog is different, even within a breed: the safest option is to measure your dog.
- Measure the neck at its base, where the collar sits.
- Leave room for two fingers between the tape and the neck.
- Between two sizes, take the larger one: our harnesses tighten with their adjustment buckles.
Our advice for a Shih Tzu
The Shih Tzu has a short nose: for brachycephalic breeds, a harness is often recommended over a collar, as it puts no pressure on the throat. If you have any doubt about its breathing, ask your vet.
