Note: Height: open-ended upper bound (e.g. "& up", "minimum", "over"): max is null.

These are published breed figures, not your dog. Measure your dog — chest girth for a harness, neck for a collar, length and height for a crate.

Puppy?
Size for the adult and use a divider. A crate bought to fit a puppy is outgrown in weeks, and a crate with a spare end stops working as a den. Buy the adult size and move the divider back as the dog grows. A harness or collar is the opposite: buy for the dog you have now, because adult-sized straps slip on a puppy.
Is your dog a mix?
Mixes vary a lot. Measure your dog. A breed figure describes a published standard, and a mix is not held to one. Two dogs from the same litter can land two sizes apart on the same chart.
Measure your Irish Wolfhound
The tables above start from a published breed range. This starts from your dog. Crates need a body length and a standing height, plus 4 in of room.
Size your Irish Wolfhound
Enter what you have measured. Every answer below is the maker’s own published range against your number — a starting point, not a fitting.
Published range for the Irish Wolfhound: 41.3 to 45.3 in chest, 21.7 to 25.6 in neck (TARIGS, "Size table for different breeds").
Measure your dog and enter it. A published range is a range: the boxes below stay empty because the middle of a range is a number nobody published. Full Irish Wolfhound size chart

Sizes come from each maker’s own published chart. Check the maker’s current chart before you buy: charts change, and nothing here is a guarantee of fit.
Common questions
- What size harness for a Irish Wolfhound?
- On the charts published by their makers, a Irish Wolfhound comes out at Julius-K9 IDC Powerharness 3 or 4, Ruffwear Front Range Harness L/XL, Ruffwear Flagline Harness L/XL (by published chest girth), with 12 of 19 charts giving a size. Size labels are not comparable between brands, so read the range rather than the letter. Measure your dog's chest girth at the widest part of the rib cage and check it against the maker's own chart before you buy.
- What size crate for a Irish Wolfhound?
- By the makers' own weight guidance, a Irish Wolfhound comes out at Petmate Sky Kennel 48". Weight is the rougher route: a crate is sized on the body. Measure your dog from the nose to the base of the tail and from the floor to the top of the head while standing, add 4 inches to each, and compare that with the crate's interior, not its outside.
- How big does a Irish Wolfhound get?
- An adult Irish Wolfhound is 32 in and up tall at the shoulder for males and 30 in and up for females, 120 lb for males and 105 lb for females. Published sizing charts give a chest girth of 41.3–45.3 in and a neck of 21.7–25.6 in. These are breed-standard ranges, not your dog: individual dogs sit outside them. Measure your dog.
