Puppy Upgrade Programme – Grow with Your Pup & Save 20%

Watching your puppy grow is one of life's greatest joys – those tiny paws getting bigger, that fluffy coat coming in, and before you know it, they've completely outgrown their first harness! 🐾 We know how quickly puppies grow (seriously, it feels like overnight sometimes!), and we also know that buying new gear every few months can get expensive.

That's exactly why we created our Puppy Upgrade Programme – because your growing pup deserves perfectly fitting gear at every stage, and you deserve to save money whilst giving them the best! ✨

What is the Puppy Upgrade Programme?

Our Puppy Upgrade Programme is designed specifically for puppy parents who want to ensure their fast-growing fur baby always has a comfortable, properly fitting harness without breaking the bank.

Here's how it works:

When your puppy outgrows their Pup Chic harness, you get 20% off their next size up!

That's right – as your adorable little fluffball grows from a tiny XXXS puppy into their adult size, we'll help you upgrade their harness at every stage with a generous 20% discount. It's our way of supporting you through those rapid growth spurts and ensuring your pup is always safe, comfortable, and stylish!

Why We Created This Programme

Let's be honest – puppies grow FAST! One minute they're fitting perfectly in their XXS harness, and the next minute they've had a growth spurt and suddenly need a Small. It can feel like you're constantly buying new gear, and those costs add up quickly.

We created the Puppy Upgrade Programme because:

Puppies deserve properly fitting harnesses – A harness that's too small can restrict movement and cause discomfort, whilst one that's too big is a safety risk. Your pup needs the right size at every stage.

We want to support puppy parents – Raising a puppy is expensive enough with vet bills, training classes, and all those chewed-up shoes! We want to make quality gear more affordable.

We believe in growing together – When you choose Pup Chic Boutique for your puppy's first harness, we want to be with you for every stage of their journey to adulthood.

Sustainability matters – By encouraging proper sizing upgrades rather than making do with ill-fitting gear, we're promoting responsible pet ownership and ensuring harnesses are used properly throughout their lifespan.

How Fast Do Puppies Actually Grow?

If you're a first-time puppy parent, you might be wondering just how quickly your little one will outgrow their gear. The answer? Pretty darn fast!

Typical Puppy Growth Stages

8-12 weeks (bringing puppy home): Your tiny bundle of fluff will likely need a XXXS, XXS, or XS harness depending on their breed.

3-6 months (rapid growth phase): This is when the magic (and chaos!) happens. Most puppies will go through 1-2 size changes during this period as they hit major growth spurts.

6-12 months (continued growth): Larger breeds continue growing significantly, whilst smaller breeds start to reach their adult size.

12+ months (reaching adult size): Most small to medium breeds reach their adult size around 12 months, whilst large and giant breeds can continue growing until 18-24 months.

Breed-Specific Growth Patterns

Toy breeds (Chihuahuas, Toy Poodles): Reach adult size around 9-12 months. May go from XXXS to XXS/XS.

Small breeds (Cocker Spaniels, Miniature Poodles): Reach adult size around 10-12 months. May go from XXS to XS/S.

Medium breeds (Cockapoos, Border Collies): Reach adult size around 12 months. May go from XS to S/M.

Large breeds (Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds): Reach adult size around 12-18 months. May go from S to L/XL.

Giant breeds (Great Danes, Mastiffs): Can continue growing until 18-24 months. May go through 3-4 size changes!

The bottom line? You'll likely need to upgrade your puppy's harness at least once, and possibly 2-3 times for larger breeds. That's where our 20% discount really adds up!

How the Puppy Upgrade Programme Works

Getting your 20% discount is super simple:

Step 1: Buy Your Puppy's First Harness

Choose the perfect harness for your puppy's current size from our collection. Make sure to measure them properly using our size guide to get the best fit!

Top tip: Our adjustable harnesses are brilliant for puppies because they can accommodate some growth, but eventually, your pup will need the next size up.

Step 2: Watch Them Grow!

Enjoy those precious puppy months! Take lots of photos (obviously!), go on adventures together, and keep an eye on how their harness fits.

Signs your puppy needs a size up:

The harness is adjusted to its maximum and still feels snug
You can't comfortably fit two fingers under the straps
The harness is restricting their movement or causing chafing
They've had a noticeable growth spurt

Step 3: Contact Us for Your Upgrade

When your puppy outgrows their harness, simply get in touch with us! We'll verify your previous purchase and send you a unique discount code for 20% off your next size.

What you'll need:

Your original order number or email address
Confirmation that your pup has outgrown their current harness

Step 4: Shop & Save!

Use your 20% discount code to purchase the next size up. Your growing pup gets a perfectly fitting new harness, and you save money – everyone wins! 🎉

Step 5: Repeat as Needed!

Got a large breed puppy who's going to need multiple size upgrades? No problem! You can use the Puppy Upgrade Programme every time your pup outgrows their harness until they reach their adult size.

Maximising Your Puppy Upgrade Programme Benefits

Choose Adjustable Harnesses

All our harnesses feature multiple adjustment points, which means they can accommodate several weeks or even months of growth before needing to size up. This maximises the value you get from each harness!

Measure Regularly

Check your puppy's measurements every 2-4 weeks during their rapid growth phase. This helps you anticipate when they'll need their next size and ensures you're not keeping them in a harness that's become too small.

Take Care of Your Harnesses

Even though your puppy will outgrow their harness, keeping it clean and in good condition means it could be passed on to another puppy parent, donated to a rescue, or kept for future litters if you're a breeder!

Start Early

The earlier you start with Pup Chic Boutique, the more upgrades you can take advantage of! If you get your puppy's first harness from us at 8 weeks old, you'll save 20% on every subsequent size they need.
