You'll need to order extra prongs. Herm Sprenger onlymakes this in one size.

You have to order the 14 inch small and probably 2 sets of (3) extra prongs.

Try your local pet store - take them out with a crescent wrench and take them with you. They appear to be the same size and thread as my SportDog collar - which PetSmart/etc sells the longer prongs for really hairy dogs/etc.

For prong collars, measure around the dog's neck and add 1" - 2". Prong collars should fit snug and high on dog's neck. Links can be added or removed to adjust fit.

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!

I just measured the medium collar and it is 24" long and just under an inch wide. If your dog is an adult and not expected to grow anymore I would say the medium will work just fine. and with that, it should put the embroidery in a visible place right on top of his collar.

You can get very small collars for small dogs. Larger dogs can use the regular size, and they come with short and long prongs depending on the dogs fur depth.

I don't believe there is one because the collar has a lot of adjustments for small necks versus extra large necks. However with a small dog I would suggest you only use the vibration setting or small voltage setting. It is also a good idea that humans test the voltage on themselves to understand what their dog is feeling. That way you can gauge if you are using too much voltage. I have a Labrador and I only use the vibration setting or low voltage setting.

You can always buy the large one and remove prongs from it if it is too big. That way if your dog grows anymore, you have some flex room to increase the size. But it is very easy to remove prongs, I had to do it for one of my dogs and it does not change the functionality of it.

When I ordered my collar, the seller just asked for the measurement of my dog's neck. I would tell her what you said here. The width seems to vary according to the length. My first collar was too tight and I wrote back to her and she sent me another bigger one free of charge. I ordered a pink collar and let her choose the reflective collar which turned out to be light blue. It was fine.

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

Hello: I am not quite sure how to help. This item is for a collar. You might try searching for a different item. - Beautiful Brands -

I don't know that you can't; but, due to size, I don't think you would want to. This collar will be so big that I don't think you or the dog will be happy very long. Believe me, this collar is for big unrully dogs only in my opinion. Even if you chaged the strap part to something smaller, the electronic box part is still way to big for a small dog.

No it won't. Herm Sprenger measures their collars opened up and laid flat, which makes them shorter when attached because of the prongs. You'll need at least a 21" collar.

Sorry I am not familiar with a prong collar. This is a hard plastic material.

The collars might be kind of large for a 20 to 30 pound dog. My two dogs are 54 to 58 pounds, and the collars are the right size for them. I have also seen 30 to 40 pound dogs in these collars and that seems OK. You can cut the collar part to any length, so that's not the issue. The issue is the shocker part is about 2.5 inches long by 1.5 inches wide by 1 inch deep. That part might be too big and heavy for a smaller dog. On the other hand, these collars are great!

Charlene, I just saw this today. I apologize for the delay. If you don't mind waiting another day, I will check tonight to see how small these collars can be adjusted, and I will let you know. I am still at work right now. My dogs are considerably bigger than a min pin and the adjustment is as large as it goes. I will let you know how small it will go.

I believe we have the 20" collar. It is 17 1/2" to the smallest hole and 20.5" to the largest. So I would guess that the 20" would be too big for your dog.
