I have a 109# Rottie and had the 3mm medium collar. Should I get extra links for it or go up in size?

Probably go up in size. This size is for a more medium size neck. The larger one would probably serve your Rottie more fittingly.

Your dog has shortish hair and the collar is about the pinch. the 3mm should be adequate as it maintains that pinch. The larger size works best for dense long hair, and secondarily provides a bit more strength to the linkage security.While your Rottie is good size and powerful, this collar is all about maintaining attention and focus, not primarily restraint. That's why you link this collars ring to a secondary restraint collar. The Herm Sprenger is formost used for control and communication, the secondary restraint is a fail-safe.

Everything I read when I was choosing a pinch collar seemed to favor a smaller link rather than a larger one. I use a 3mm link with my Golden Retriever and I probably could have gone with a 2.5. I would just order extra links.

We couldn't say for sure without doing a test sizing (which you could do anywhere that Rogz collars are sold in stores), but the 1" is the largest size (XL) and recommended on the official Rogz website for Rottweilers, Bouviers, Ridgebacks and Labs, so our guess is that it would be the best option for St. Bernards as well. :)

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.

I would think that a medium would be the size you would use on your Labradoodle. I have a German shorthair pointer and that is the size I use on her. Nice thing with these collars you can take links out or add. Very easy to do! Great collar! Hope this helps you!

It should fit just fine. I would order a quick release collar replacement ( info in my original review) I think the quick release collars are more easily scale able to the right size versus the buckle type. The unit is fantastic and has great range. I highly recommend it. Also, if it doesn't work for you, you can always return it.

My sister bought one for a Cairn Terrier which is also pretty dhortblegged and it was better than the traditional cone type collar, but they struggled getting the right size because the dog was pretty stout. Getting it big enough to go around the neck required it to be bigger than necessary otherwise. She got a small and a medium and ended up returning the small. Medium wasn't perfect but was better than the conevthe vet cent her home with.

the links come apart so you can put in on your dog. this also allows you to adjust the size by adding or taking away links. I have not taken the time to review this product yet, but I would recommend going with a more expensive model. I ordered two as replacement for collars that are about five years old, and they had a cheaper overall appearance and feel. I mainly use these when taking my dogs on a walk because they cut down on the pulling w/o me needing to snap or do anything.

I have a chow with a very large neck. He weighs 75 pounds. I got the medium 22" and added 3 extra links. I do not recommend the heavy one as the links are too thick. There are several videos on youtube about fitting your dog with this type of collar and it explains why this one is the best.

I would go with small as it is adjustable. As long as you plan on using it often. I made the mistake of getting extra small when my Rottie was that young. She grew out of it so fast. After small I would go to large or extra large. They grow fast.

Yes it fit ours fine and you can add extra links, But our pit bull doesn't seem to feel pain so it might not work as well as you want. Worked great on my boxer

Yes. I actually would suggest this rather than the smaller version. I have a 40lb beagle mix and this size works for her. You will need to remove multiple links to fit your dog's neck, but I would still get the bigger link size.

I'd go with medium then. I just got medium because I have a little 14 point dog (shitzu Maltese mix) and I get her a 14 to 16 inch length collar. So when I emailed them saying that, they said to go with the medium.

it depends on what your rottie weighs and if it's an American or German Rottie...I would suggest the largest size they have...the site should have a size chart for the chest and neck area. I had both kinds of Rotties and the chests and necks can differ in the German and the American. That would be my suggestion. I hope this helps.

My GSD has a 17" neck. I went with the medium and removed 3-4 links and it fits like a glove.

I know that the extra large that was recommended for my rottweiler was way too big. I would say that the large would be more in line possibly for your dogs. Hope this helps.

You'd probably need two extra links. We have the medium size collar and each link adds approx. 1-1/4" in length

I think you'll want the medium. Links come out easily so you can reduce size as needed. Of course you don't want it very snug to begin with so it won't pinch neck until you want it to.
