I've noticed a lot of people mention their dog not being able to lay down with very much room in a medium and their dogs seem to be quite small. My dog weigh almost 9lbs and I was going to order the medium but now I'm considering ordering the large...

When in doubt order the larger one. My dog was only a couple of pounds when I bought it. Now she is about 6 pounds and just about makes it. Make sure you can position it. I brace it in between the seats in front and I have a larger bed for my other dogs (I have 4 small ones) that braces it as well. It works well for me the way I have it. Hope this helps, Judy

Go to the next size up! I have the small cozy for my 7 lb Maltese mix and a large one for my Pitbull. My little guy likes the big one as much as his little one, bigger is ok with this cave-type bed. They LOVE to climb in and bury themselves in the cave :)

I have a yorkiepoo he is 13 pounds and I originally choose the small for him but he had it gone in minuets so I then ordered the medium size and it gave him more of a work out and he was happier to have it last longer so I have continued to order the medium. Hope this helps.

My dog weighs roughly 50 pounds (pit bull). The XL is huge, even for her. But the extra space is nice because she can spread out and lay in different areas of the bed. I have not seen the Large so I cannot speak to that. But, I would say that the XL would probably be too big for your dog. Great bed all around. My dog loves it.

We bought a large for our 60lb German shorthair pointer. Enough room for him to lay comfortably. But difficult for him to sit up. We just use ours for the car to keep him enclosed, and it's really nice! Either size you decide on, you'll really like the product overall.

I have a 5lb morkie who has plenty of room to jump in and lay comfortably for some time while I shop. 10 lbs would be snug but if they don't have a problem laying down would probably work.

I guessed and was wrong; my dog's girth was bigger than a large, although she weighed 90#. So, she needed an extra large which was not being offered. My experience was not the happiest.

I really like this bag. My dog not so much. He doesn't like being restricted. It does come in handy. The bottom of bag is hard for support but there is a fake sheep skin insert that covers the actual bottom of the bag. The insert can be removed to be washed. Sherpa makes the best protective bags in my opinion. My dog weighs 6 pounds and has plenty of room to move around that is why I went with the medium bag. Good luck on your decision. Hope this helped.

With out measuring I have a 17lb and a 11lb dog who share the bed with penty of room for them both. They love it and my poodle the 17lb one feels loved for having it. He is 14 and getting older so he loves haveing the cushion that even the carpet can't give him. Not made for a large dog but 2 little ones can learn to share and be very happy ;-)

I have a 42lb Dalmatian. I got the extra small for her and it has room to spare. If I remember correctly she was right on the line too. I would put my money on the medium.

I would definately buy a Large for a 55 lb Dog. I bought (2) mediums for my Airedale pups last year and they were 40 lbs ea at just 6 months... they are now just a year old and they are pushing 80 lbs ea. and the (2) mediums i bought last year now do not fit and i will be buying (2) Large this year to replace the mediums i bought last year LOL . The product Vest itself is very well made and lightweight. the Mesh Material on the underside is much cooler & comfortable for them also. They worked very well for the price.

I have two smaller dogs. They use both the small and the medium If I had your dogs, I would not get a small.They often sleep in the same car seat.

Our beagles fit great into a medium. Our male is 40 pounds and our female is 36 pounds. They're a great product and the dogs don't mind wearing them at all. So they must be comfortable.

Hi, I got mine the x-small, he was about 10 pounds and it fit perfectly. That being said, I think this product is a sham and did nothing for our dog.

Good question. My small dog is thick and she's weighed 22 pounds. Weight has nothing do with bed. I put dog bed on my bed next to me. This dog bed is very good and excellent. I got two beds: cat/dog. I have no problem with wash and dry beds. The bed is not for large dog. Small and medium will do good.

I bought this for a dog that weighs approximately12-15 pounds. I think the medium would have plenty of room if you wanted to add a blanket or something. But I would assume the smaller one would work better.

My dog is a Medium size dog (like a large beagle...) and I got a Large. The shirt actually works wonders with my dog - I didn't believe it until I tried it haha.
