Guide · Sighthounds

Fit for distinctive proportions.

Sighthounds often combine a narrow head with a characteristic neck shape. Choosing well starts with observation and model-specific measurements.

Anatomy

Consider head and neck together.

Neck circumference is not always the only relevant measurement. Depending on closure and construction, head size, neck length and wearing position may matter too.

Measuring

Measure for the actual model.

Measure calmly, without an existing collar, at the intended position. Do not add your own allowance when the atelier determines finished size from the construction.

Choice

Select width and closure deliberately.

The right combination does not come from a generic breed chart. Share measurements, photographs and use context for an individual assessment.
