what numbers are the guards? Lucy is a Chow mix, so I don't want her clipped too short.

I threw all but one away because I use it to clip my Himalayan cat. I clip just enough off to make her look like a little bear. I would not worry about clipping it to short if you use one of the guards that is designed for long hair cuts (I threw away, did not need). Overall this pet clipper kit works good.

There are ⅛, ¼, ⅜, and ½ inch guards in the package. For fur around the legs/paws, booty, or other parts you might want a little shorter you can use the ⅛ or ¼. For bod where you want a little fuller fur use the ½. It'll be pretty short but fur grows so the cut should last you a while.

We have a 101 lb weimaraniner, and he does great. The covers zip off so you could add to it or change it if needed. :)

My little mix breed (18 lbs and short) maneuvers it just fine. she kind of has to hop in vs the big dog but its worked out great !

Are they tall? Do they really like each other? Do they willingly go into bags? My dog hated the fact that there was no top access. Although, she is not so used to carriers. I replaced mine with a regular large Sherpa - which is what I should have bought in the first place. Even though she's a little tall for it, she doesn't mind it at all.

I have a 21 lb terrier mix who fits well if her head sticks out. She loves riding on my bike!! Just got back from a three hour ride from Palm Springs!

I'm in the - not sure camp. I have Chihuahua's with various snout/muzzle sizes. It is definitely harder for the shorter muzzle Chi's. Part also depends on food motivation & obliviously a longer tongue does help. BTW, I have the flower bowl. I've also bought the Nina Ottosson dog toys (tornado, the brick & dogmagic) & used them at meal time to slow eating. In some ways I like those better because it makes my dog work for their food.

I would go on line and check with your dog's breed and see what they recommend. Since your dog is short haired (and cute) it would probably need a different type of lead. I have Chow Chows and with their thick coat, the slip lead is great because it doesn't tear their hair. Good luck!!

Today I gave my Shi Tzhu a home clipping and was shocked at how fat he got -- he's now 20lbs. How did this happen? What a dope I was. I've been giving him three dental chews a day for months now. Of course he gained four lbs or so. Will cut back to one daily.

My dogs are 12 and under. I think this might be a bit small for your 45# dog. I think the info said up to 30#. I would call the company and ask them. My dogs love it

This sounds like the dog might be about the size of a Chihuahua. If so, I would say that this No-Sit Haunch holder might be too large.

My Cavachon is about 21-22 lbs. She likes this size because she feels nestled. She's a rescue and likes to feel secure. She also hangs her head over the side while sleeping. If you feel you pug needs stretch room then larger would be better. Bridget curls up in it and there's still some room for a toy or two.

Hi L. Nichols, I have two small dogs both around 15lbs and I bought the small round. It is a little smaller than a quarter and fits their name, my address and my full phone number fine and looks great. I hope that helps. Cathy

I'm betting that if mom fits through the doggie door, the donut wearing pups will fit too. I've packed mine away until next SX need but perhaps someone will post the donut collar's diameter.

I've got a basset hound too == Amy, what trailer did you wind up getting and any recommendations for my best friend? She's 62 lbs!

Seems like a lot. I have a 10 lb min-pin/Chihuahua mix and she gets 1/3 cup total split over two meals. She really loves this food so I worry that she'll end up putting on weight if I feed her more. As another person mentioned, just keep a close watch on the weight to see if they're getting bigger.

Check to see the size of the treat vs the weight of your dog. You don't want to give your pet a treat that is too small or too big!

My 5 small dogs range from 9 lbs to 21 lbs.. The small was way too big for the 9#, the medium was ok for the rest of them, but too short in the length to the tail for the 21 lb. Ordered the large for the 21# and it was HUGE! I ended up altering the small slicker for the 9# and altered the large one for the 21#......I recommend if your pet is at the higher end of the range for a particular size, I suggest you order the next larger size. If the slicker is not long enough to cover the pets back, what good is it? I like the material and the quality. But the sizing can be tricky. The sizes are for the length and girth of the pet, not the lbs. Hope this helps. My 5 small dogs range from 9 lbs to 21 lbs..
