• A yardstick is best for taking measurements A, B, C, E, F, G & H.
• A cloth tape is best for cart measurement D.
• When measuring with a cloth tape be sure to hold the tape straight and taut.
• If you have a large paralyzed dog, you can lay it down on its side with its back straight against a wall and legs extended straight down from the hips and shoulders, and take all measurements this way ‐except D, F, and G which must be taken in a standing position.
