I am getting a labrador 8 week puppy. What size collar should I get
34101
If you can get the neck measurement of the puppy then look at the size of the collars offered for the neck, because you will have to allow for the rapid growth of the puppy. Just be sure to get one big enough to where you won't be buying one every time you turn around.

Maybe a small it may be big on it at first but the dog will grow into it. I got my Austrian blue heeler a larger and had to reorder a medium for him.

I purchased this collar for my yellow lab. He weighs 99 lbs. It is adjustable. Approximately 23 inches long. I was able to make it 7 and 1/2 inches smaller to fit my dog.

Hi Sandra. Both my dogs are around 18 lbs. The collar is a little big on my female. I am cutting it down to fit. You might have to get a smaller collar, length wise to use it. Just make sure it is the same width.

I used a fabric measuring tape to measure my dogs neck. She is an 8 Lb miniature schnauzer. I would say a small to an extra small(if that is an option). The charm didn't last a week but the collar itself is great.

For the Correct fit the collar should be snug - high up on the neck - just behind the ears and below the jaw..- not down low near the collarbone like a regular collar.. The links can be removed or added to adjust as needed. To measure the actual neck you can use a flexible measuring tape . My 95lb Doberman uses the Large collar, and I have adjusted it to be 7 links . If I order her a regular collar, it is 16". Which is measured from the center hole of a 5 hole adjustable collar.

I agree with Cindy about the proper fit as our dog definitely responds. You do have to be sure the collar is making the proper contact with the dog's neck. Good luck

I think this collar is definitely too large for them! Dogtra makes ecollars specifically for smaller dogs so I would look those up. I have a 65 lb lab and I had to cut about eight inches off of the collar due to it being so long. However, it fits my 110 lb lab perfectly :]

If your dog is fully grown the medium would probably be OK but if the dog is still growing, go for the large. Also, if the dog's fur around the neck is quite "furry" then go for the large. My dog is a Siberian Husky amd I opted for the large. By the way, good choice of collar!--this is one of the best leather collars I've seen in years.

If your dog is not likely to be growing into a thicker neck, I would think (but can't be certain) that the small, which claims to go up to 12" and is only 3/4" wide might be the better choice. Otherwise you will have a lot of extra loop hanging down (which dog could get caught on). I have only had experience with the 1" wide large & medium collars. Good luck to you and your canine pal!

This collar adjusts from 13" - 22". To get a correct fitting, measure your labs neck circumference at the widest point then add 1 inch. If the measurement is less than 13 inch, then it won't fit right now, but will grow into it over a few months. This collar is probably the correct size for at least the first 1-2 years. After 12-16 months your dog should have reached full size at which time you will be able to determine permanent collar size.The X -Large (Lumberjack) is the preferred size for Labrador (adjusts from 17" - 27"), but will depend on your dogs growth.

I would recomend Large. My dog had a 19' neck and the large fit great with room to grow. They are really nice collars.Hope this helps!

I'd probably get a medium. The small sized one will be too small. The medium one will be a tad too big, BUT links are easily removable. I had to take out two for my dog. They simply pinch together to remove. This is such a quality collar and makes training to heel easy-peasy. Remember, be consistant and calm! I tried two other types of collars and got nowhere fast.

When I get home from work I will measure and let you know. The collar is pretty long , I have a 50 lb Setter , The collar when on the dogs neck wraps about 3/4 around his neck again. I will measure.

Purchase the same size of the collar. I believe when you purchased it there would be a size listed. it may be the 3mm

The collar is very large, but you can make it as small as you like, cut off the excess and heat the end to seal it so it doesn't ravel. I have three collars - one for a pug/terrier mix (about 20 lbs), one for an Olde English Bulldogge (about 70 lbs) and one for a mastiff (about 150 lbs).

I would try a large. That is the size I bought for my german short hair pointer mix. He is about 70 pounds. This collar is very adjustable too so you should be able to get a good fit.
