Use a flexible tape measure to measure around the widest part of your dog's chest. Keep the tape comfortably snug without compressing the fur or skin.

Because our harnesses feature four-point dual-buckle micro-adjustment straps, we recommend sizing UP for deep-chested breeds, dogs with dense double-coats, or growing puppies. For lean, short-haired breeds with narrower frames, sizing down is usually ideal.

Absolutely. Our anatomical Y-frame chest plate was engineered in consultation with canine physiotherapists specifically to prevent choking. Pulling forces bypass the windpipe and cervical vertebrae entirely, distributing pressure across the sternum and chest bone for unrestricted breathing.

Every Taily & Bows bow tie features durable dual-elastic slide loops on the back. It slides securely over any standard flat or rolled collar up to 1.5 inches wide. The reinforced backing keeps the bow tie standing crisp and dapper without drooping or spinning around their neck.

We use high-tensile hydrophobic poly-blend webbing lined with our proprietary CloudMesh™ breathable honeycomb padding. The edges are piped with ultra-soft closed-cell neoprene to eliminate friction rash, hair snagging, and friction burns behind the front legs.

All load-bearing snap hooks and D-rings are forged from aviation-grade materials, lab-rated to withstand 380+ lbs of sudden tensile pull force. Our leashes are crafted from climbing-grade braided nylon rope that remains buttery-soft in your hands.

Yes! We know real walks get muddy. Place the harness, leash, or collar inside a mesh laundry bag to protect your washing machine drum, and wash on a cold, gentle cycle using mild pet-safe detergent. Lay flat to air dry away from direct heat. Bow ties can be spot cleaned with warm water.
