Dachshund Size Guide
Dogs come in many shapes and sizes and can vary widely, even within the dachshund breed. We have devised a simple way to navigate around our sizing. We recommend that prior to purchasing collars and clothing from Jimmy C (even for gifts for a friend or loved one) that you obtain the correct measurements as shown below:
Step 1
Locate your dachshund - probably under a blanket somewhere.
Step 2
Using a soft tape measure, measure the length from point A at the base of their neck to point B at the base of the tail.
Step 3
Measure the chest from point A to C all the way round.
Step 4
Measure the waist all the way around at point D.
Step 5
Finally measure the collar size at point E. For a nice comfortable fit please ensure that the tape is not too tight whilst measuring.

Jimmy C Collar Guide
Our collar sizes are based on two measurements – (please see diagram) the smallest fitting (1 to 2) and the largest fitting (1 to 3). We suggest that you choose a collar where the neck size of your dog is between one of these two measurements.
