Barbs right.  Also only measure to the highest point and do not measure any 
distance from the side of the shoulder to the middle of the back (spine).  
You can lay a rule, level, across the withers and measure from the floor to 
the rule or best is use a wicket, which few of us keep around.  30 inches at 
the shoulders for a bitch is huge, almost unheard of, so check your 
measurements again.
