I got the extra large for my 65 pound Aussie. Also, he is a chewier and I tried the Classic and the Extreme. He definitely needed the Extreme toy. It has lasted a few months, where the Classic he was able to pull pieces from right away. I'm sure you could use the smaller size Kong, but just be aware of how aggressive your dog is as a chewier. The Kong is our dogs favorite toy. It bounces and rolls, and he loves chasing and fetching it. I highly recommend it!!

I'd recommend starting with the small. It will be easier for your dog to get his mouth around and successfully get the food out. Also, with the small, since you would put less food in it, it will be a lower calorie treat for your dog, important when you have a smaller dog that is burning off less calories per day then his larger canine friends.

My little girl is 16 pounds also, and I like the small one for her and she seems to like it too

I have a small lab that's 46 lbs. The large is perfect. I also had a 19 lb. Doxie and the small worked for him.

I got a size Medium for our Min Pin mix dog. He is about 20 lbs and similar to Bichon size. I would guess a Medium would fit well for your dog. :)

Carol, My dog is 15 pounds (goes back and forth between 14-15) and he is a Boston Terrier - tall and slim. I can send pictures if you want. He wears a Large and it is snug. He still wears it but can't push the velcro all the way together - have to keep it loose. He walks into it. We LOVE IT. I am afraid if you go up to an XL it will be too large. Please keep us posted as I am getting ready to order another one for my dog. These are absolutely the BEST harnesses out there.

I got an XS for my Yorkie. She weighs about 6lbs. You do want it very snug. I hope this helps you decide.

My dog is a 9 pound chihuaha mix and the medium fits her well. I recall when I purchased mine that the comments posted said that the harnesses run a bit small. I would definitely measure your dog first. I don't want to tell you large and have it be too big, but a medium may be too small for a 20 pound dog since it fits my 9 pounder.

I have a 17-20 pound Welsh terrier and the medium was a perfect fit. We originally bought a small based on the Thundershirt sizing but that was about 2 inches short on his back and too snug around his chest. Hope that helps.

I would get a medium. My Yorkies weigh 7 lbs. & 8 lbs. I got a blue one & a pink one both small & they are snug on both of them.

A large will be fine. They are for 60-130 lbs. I have a 65lb black lab and it fits her just fine. Now if only she wouldn't hate it so bad...works great for keeping her from pulling, but she really gets irritated with it and constantly rubs in her nose on the ground trying to get it off. Good luck! You can't beat this price either.

I have a 16 week old french bulldog who is 11 pounds with an 18 inch girth. I bought him a small. It fits, but has to be adjusted way down. Since he's growing, this isn't an issue, but if he was staying this size I might go for XS. With that said, the small is a safe bet here since it will adjust down to fit.

according to the manufacturer you're suppose to measure your dog around the waist area. That determines what size you will need. My dog was 16" so, medium. yours is probably small.

they go by size of neck and chest. you must measure. X-Large 15.7"-neck 21 to 32" chestXX-Large 19" neck 26 to 39"chest I would guess XXlarge, but you'd be better off measuring. My 16 pound dog is snug in medium.

I went with the medium for my 18 pound Jack Russell and it fits well. That should be fine for your dog.

Go to the thundershirt websites, it has a size chart with the weight of your dog. http://www.thundershirt.com/Product/Thundershirt.aspx?item_guid=ad60b946-f758-45e2-a589-331dda09637e

I would recommend the large. My dog is 15-16 lbs and she fits tight but comfortably in the large

One of my shih tzu's measures 16 and one measures 15.5 inches around the chest. The large is adjustable for both and fits well.
