NOTE Do not purchase for a standard dog breed just because you think this is longer length as it will not fit them and you will not be able to get it on them. The only exception is the XL Luxe Polar Fleece Tankie as it opens up at both sides from the arm holes down to the ends so you can get other large dog breeds into the top. Just check the front length isn't too long especially for male dogs otherwise they will wee on it.
Our polo neck slim tankies are specifically designed for long, lean body shapes ONLY - Dachshunds, Whippets, Greyhounds, Italian Greyhounds, and Lurchers. Do not purchase these for standard breed body shapes - they will not fit correctly even if you want a longer length! Available in 5 sizes XS to XL.
Important Fit Information:
These luxuriously soft polar fleece tanks are designed for a very snug fit to keep your hound warm in cold climates. The super thick polar fleece has no stretch, so accurate measuring is essential!
Special XL Feature: Only size XL features snap fasteners on both side seams that open from the armholes down for easy dressing of larger Greyhounds and Lurcher breeds. All other sizes (XS-L) fit like t-shirts and slip over the head.
Sizing Tips:
- Extra wide armholes for comfort
- Tight fit by design to retain warmth
- Go up a size if you're close to the end of the measurement range
- Measure your hound before purchasing and allow additional room for comfort
- Typical breed sizing guide:
- XS: Small Miniature Dachshunds
- S: Average Miniature Dachshunds
- M: Most Standard Dachshunds and Whippets
- L: Large Whippets and Smaller Greyhounds
- XL: Larger Greyhounds and Lurcher Breeds (with side openings)
This is a guide only - always measure your hound specifically, and if between sizes, go up a size. These tankies will not fit every hound.
Wrong body type? If your pet is a standard breed, these tankies will be too long on the body and too tight in the chest and most find they cant even get them on their standard breed.
