I may have bought the wrong size. I have a pug that is on a diet and weighs 40 lb. The Furminator I bought is 1.25 inches. Is this right?

I don't know if there are "right" sizes. Is it working? Since you said you may have the wrong size, I'm assuming you are not pleased with what you have. I don't know a lot about the product, and guess I lucked out with mine, b/c it works well. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Amazon is really great about product returns/exchanges.

For a pugs length hair you would want the short hair version. The long hair is for dogs with much longer coats. Such as husky, lab, shepard, etc.

Not sure what the 1.25" refers to. I bought a "M" long hair tool for 21-40 lbs ; the comb is 2.65" wide. This is for a 20lb Rough coated Jack Russell and works just fine.

That seems very small. I have a German Shepherd and purchased the 4" tool and it works great. I can also use it on my cats, very carefully.

I have a pug and it works on her just fine. It doesn't matter how long their legs are, nothing needs to fit the length of the leg. It all goes under the arm and it depends on how tight you keep it.

Meaure your dog's neck then go by the company's guidelines. My pug has a 14" neck size.

I have a pug that weighs about 22 pounds and he wears a small. I would think an extra small would be better for your dog.

You want the long hair version of the furminator brush due to German shepherds hair being between medium and long hair. And with your best friend weighing in at 95 pounds you want the giant 5" version. Hope that helps.

I don't think you can go wrong with size. I buy the large cat furminator and use it on all 4 of my cats ranging from small to large and I use it on my extra large dog (over 100lbs), they all have different hair types and it works Great on all of them. If it is just for your small tabby than maybe go with the small, you really can't go wrong. You will love this!

I have an 85 lb. Akita and the 20" collar just barely fits around her neck. It is summertime and she is shaved; during the fall/winter months when her fur grows back, this will not fit her.

I had the same problem. My dog is 10 pounds too and I bought small. It works.

My dogs are quite a bit larger than yours, at 65lbs or so. However, my sister uses this with her poodle mix and with her yorkie and both are quite small at 15 or less. The yorkie is under 10 lbs, for sure. I think the collars she has must be a smaller version, though.

I'm sorry I couldn't say. We found them to run on the small side so it didn't fit our pug. I didn't find it to be overly bulky if that helps.

What I can say is that I bought it for my 23 pound miniature poodle and it is loose on her. Hope this helps.

I just received mine today. And, I had asked the same question because I have short haired lab/beagle mix. I compared the short hair cat Furminator to the short hair dog Fuminator. The dimensions were exactly the same, but for some reason the cat model was cheaper, so I took a chance. I was afraid to get the long hair version because the blades are wider and I didn't want to risk the blade getting to close to her skin. Anyway, I tried it immediately and am very happy! It works perfectly!

I'm not the seller, but it fits my 16lb. pug just fine. According to the Description on Amazon, it 'Fits 12"-28" girths.' So measure your pooch behind the legs (at the widest point, where a normal harness would be), and if it's within that size range, it should fit just fine.

I don't know about Toy Poodles but our pug weighs about 25 lbs. I just measure him and from the back of his neck to the beginning of his tail he's about 16 inches. I am pretty sure that my wife ordered a medium for him. He just loves to swim which pugs are not supposed to do. Without the jacket he would just sink. He loves it, and swims in our pool several times per week. For a toy poodle I would go with a small. They have really improved the quality of this jacket too. It is very rugged and well made. If ours is a small I will let you know, but I think it's a medium. Good luck with your swimmin' poodle!

Hi Terri: I have not tried the Furminator on a small short haired dog: However, next time I go to the animal shelter I will try it on a few different dogs and get back to Amazon with my experiment.
