You should be fine with a medium but if you're worried about it not fitting, you can go with a large and cut the strap down to size if the dog is not at it's mature weight and still growing.

We got a Large for our Lab when he was 9 months old and about 50 pounds. We wanted it to grow with him, otherwise we may have gotten the Medium.

I have a 10 year old black lab who weighs about 50 lbs. She is using a Medium size and it is a perfect size.

My lab is 8 months and 50 lbs. I wish I would have gotten a large or even extra large!

40 pounds would be too big a dog for this. My dog is between 25 and 30 and she is at the top of her size for this carrier.

Hello - The manufacturer suggests the XLarge size - 25-41" girth, for dogs weighting 70-90lbs. Thank you for your interest.

My dog is a Chow Chow and weighs approx 45 lbs. He fits perfectly when curled up inside. I would not recommend this size house for a dog larger than 50 lbs. Otherwise, this house is good quality, I'm happy with the purchase and I can endorse this product.

One of my dogs is a 50 lb lab mix, and the other is a 125lb GSMD. This size is fine where the big guy isn't going to swallow. It's a great size for my smaller dog. Should be fine for your dog, I may look into the next size up if he's gonna be bigger than 50lbs

Agree with the others, go with a bigger one. I have a 45 lb lab mix and it is bug enough for him to curl up and stretch out. Double him, and I would say go for the 52".

I would suggest a medium as this harness is adjustable. We have been using the medium for our dog for over a year now, and she has grown from approximately 30 to 45 pounds in that time frame.

Those different sizes weren't present when I ordered mine. But, the 18 in fits perfectly for my 50 lbs dog. I would guess it'd be too large for your puppy.

I would recommend a large. Our golden pup wore a medium when he weighed about 35-40 lb

No, 40lb would be too big. My Frenchie is a little snug in it and he's only 20lb.

I bought a Large for my 50 lb standard poodle. The leash part isn't very long when you wrap it around their chest. I would recommend a large so the leash isn't too short

Hello Jill! Did you end up purchasing this product? I too have a 45-50 lb dog and would love to purchase this for her. However, in the previous answers the people who were kind enough to answer seemed to miss the fact that their dogs were roughly double the size of our dogs and because it fit their 80-100 pound dogs doesn't mean it will fit ours. I'd love to hear whether it worked or not if you purchased it!

A larger dog is best. Mine is a medium sized 45 pound Lab and it was too big.

The medium size was perfect for my 55-60 pound lab mix mutt. He's a lean build and all muscle. The chest size table on the info page is very accurate.

My dog was 47 lbs and she wore a medium, so I would suggest large for you. The medium size for her left her enough room for growth, but she was an older dog so it wasn't an issue, but large would have been way too big.
