I am apparently a ding bat, and I do not know how to measure!!

CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG PLEASE!

Weight 4.5 lb ( i know this for sure)

Length: I measured from neck line to where the tail starts 9 1/2"

Height: I measured from paws to top of back 10"

Girth: I measured around, under from behind his armpits 13 1/2"

Neck: 9 1/2"

Is Girth and chest the same?

Does that sound right?

Yes that's right.

Personally if I'm having something customed made...I measure the widest part of the chest which is usually a bit further back than the "arm pits".

Thanks,

I did the widest part of the chest and its 14 so I am sticking with that, next questions is do I need to measure the "chest" ( this is for the Gift Exchange btw. Is girth and chest the same?

according to most in the GE they are 2 separate measurements.... chest is widest part and girth is lower more like the waist.
