Measure neck circumference
Use a soft measuring tape around the base of your pet’s neck where the cone will sit. Keep it comfortably snug, not tight.

Find the Right Cone for Your Pet
A proper fit helps your pet stay comfortable while getting the protection they need. Follow these steps to measure your dog and use the size chart to choose a suitable cone.
Inflatable Cone Measuring Guide
Use this chart for Barkless inflatable cones. Measure around your pet’s neck and compare the result with the size ranges shown in this diagram. Breed suggestions are a general guide only.
How to choose an inflatable cone size
Measure your pet’s neck where the inflatable collar will sit, then compare the measurement with the ranges shown in this chart. If your measurement falls at the end of a range, follow the chart’s recommendation to choose the larger size.
Regular Cone Measuring Guide
For a regular cone, check both neck circumference and cone depth. Neck circumference helps determine whether the opening fits; depth helps determine how far the cone extends beyond your pet’s nose.
Check cone depth
Compare the depth listed in the chart with your pet’s measurements to help ensure the cone reaches far enough to protect the area.
Use the matching chart
Regular and inflatable cones have different sizing systems. Always use the chart for the cone type and product you are buying.
Choose the Best-Fitting Size
Compare your measurements with the size chart for the exact cone you plan to buy. Do not rely on breed alone, because pets of the same breed can have different proportions.
Between two sizes?
If your pet’s measurement falls between two sizes, follow the recommendation shown on the matching product chart. For the inflatable cone chart shown above, choose the larger size when the measurement is at the end of a range.
