I am not in this gift exchange, so I feel safe in reassuring you. I'm sure your buddy will understand. All of that is great info to know, so thanks for posting it.

If you ever do want to know how to measure your pup, just pm any one of the clothing vendors here to help you. Usually you measure from the base of the tail to the base of the neck for the back measurement, and around his middle behind the front legs for his girth. (Correct me if I'm wrong anyone.) His height I believe is from the middle of his back to the floor.

I get a piece of yarn and mark it and then lay it out and measure it after I have it off of him when I can't find my tape measure. I measure when my pups are in my lap getting brushed. They are calmest then.

Good luck!
