Introduction
A well-fitted dog bandana makes your pup look great—and feel even better.
This quick guide shows you how to measure, size, and pick the perfect fit.
1. How to Measure Your Dog’s Neck for Dog Bandana Sizes
Getting the right dog bandana sizes is quick and easy—whether you have a soft tape measure or not.
Option 1: With a Soft Measuring Tape
- Wrap the soft tape around the base of your dog’s neck—right where a collar usually sits.
- Add two fingers between the tape and your dog’s neck to make sure it’s not too snug.
- Record the number where the tape meets. That’s your dog bandana measurements—your starting point for choosing the right dog bandana sizes.
Option 2: No Measuring Tape? No Problem
- Use a piece of string, ribbon, or even a scarf to wrap around your dog’s neck.
- Mark where the two ends meet.
- Lay it flat and measure the length with a standard ruler or measuring tape.
- Don’t forget to add space for two fingers, just like with the soft tape.

Special Notes for Certain Dogs
- Long-haired dogs: Add an extra 0.5–1 inch to allow room for thick fur and prevent tangling or pressure on the coat.
- Growing puppies: Choose a size with more adjustable range, or go with a Velcro-closure bandana that can adapt as your pup grows.
- Flat-faced breeds (like pugs or bulldogs): These breeds tend to have broader necks and are more active. A Velcro bandana offers better breathability and a flexible fit that adjusts comfortably to their build.
