It has to be, because the dogs at the top of it are not simply bigger versions of the dogs at the bottom. A lean Deerhound and a broad Mastiff can share a girth figure and need the webbing set quite differently around the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe practical upshot is that the XL will very probably fit, and that you should expect to spend a few minutes on it rather than pulling it out of the bag and clipping on. Set both adjustment points, walk the dog, then set them again. In red, on Ancol's poly-weave webbing with soft air-mesh where it lies against the coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits an 80–120cm chest girth — 40cm of adjustment, the widest span Ancol offer in this harness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully adjustable at the neck and the girth, which is what makes that span usable rather than nominal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable poly-weave webbing with soft air-mesh fabric for breathability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAncol say the design distributes pressure evenly for improved control and support.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective band for increased visibility in low light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs measuring 80–120cm around the chest, just behind the front legs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGiant and deep-chested breeds, from lean Deerhounds and Wolfhounds to broad Mastiffs and Newfoundlands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEveryday walking, and car journeys used with a separate vehicle tether.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwners prepared to set both adjustment points properly rather than fit it out of the bag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBelow 80cm around the chest, the Ancol Viva Exercise \u0026amp; Travel Dog Harness Red L 60-85cm is the better fit, with less surplus webbing to take up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure the deepest part of the chest, just behind the front legs, and check the figure falls within 80–120cm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet the girth strap first, close behind the elbows, then bring the neck opening down to match.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo fingers flat under the webbing at both points, and no more.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalk the dog a short distance and reset anything that has shifted — a wide-span harness moves most on its first outing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor car use, attach a separate tether such as Ancol's ISOfix Seatbelt, item 741600, to the harness.
