Measuring guide

  1. Measure your Havanese over a gently arranged coat, keeping the tape clear of tangles.
  2. Use the base of the neck as the back-length starting point; long hair can hide this landmark.
  3. Check the belly edge and leg openings with the dog standing so the sweater does not catch long furnishings.
  4. Measure your Havanese while standing comfortably. Measure the widest part of the chest, just behind the front legs.
  5. Measure along the back from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. Keep the tape snug without pulling it tight.
  6. Use the actual pattern’s gauge, ease and finished measurements. Check that the garment allows comfortable movement.

Breed reference measurements

Use your own dog’s measurements — no breed-average garment measurements are supplied for this guide.

Measure chest and back on your own dog. The size filter is a browsing aid, not a garment size chart.

Breed background: Source 1. Fitting tips are practical measuring guidance, not a tested breed-specific pattern.
