There was s guide that showed me I believe it went by weight rather than measure. I have two Bichons. One runs 16 to 17 pounds, The medium fits him perfectly. My other Bichon weighs between 22 and 25 pounds and the large fits him perfectly. You also have some wiggle room since it is adjustable like a dog collar is. Sorry it took so respond.

My dog weighs 10 lbs and her vest (size small) is pretty big on her in that the belly strap still has a ton of give in it, but it doesn't quite drag on the floor. I would suggest a large, as well.

We purchased the large for our lab,shepard mix and he was around 85 lbs. I think he could have used the medium. I think it depends on his muscular structure, rump and thigh size of your dog. This was a great purchase for us.

We purchased a XL for my English Bull dog based off the sizing chart. It was WAY too long. I would recommend going off of the length of your dog, all the other measurements can be adjusted very easily with this vest. The XL could be made to fit my 65lbs bulldog but in each category except length. He measures Length:16 Neck:23 Girth:22.

Sorry to just respond. I have a pitbull mix (about 75 pounds with a chest measurement of 28 inches). We ordered a medium and it fits well when the straps are all-the-way tightened. Not sure what's best for your dog. If your dog is full-grown, then probably a small.

I have a Lab that's about 90 lbs and the large fit but it was tight because of his barrel like body so I had to buy extenders which they have one the signature k9 website. I love the vest and he wers it pretty well but seems to fit German Shepherds like a glove where as on a lab its a little more sloppy.

My dog weighs only 68lb, he's wide st the front and smaller at the back, I got an XL size at first but had to order a LG instead, I think these sizes are generous, my dog is a golden retriever / pit bull mix, you can adjust the straps but mine is still a little big for the dog, it is a good strong harness though and it's easy to put on, just slip the vest over the dogs head and then lift one leg slightly over the strap and the two padded straps fasten at the side, it's on in seconds and the dog loves it because he's comfortable and you have complete control of his body without pulling on his neck. :) hope this helps.

Weight is not as much of a determining metric as length, girth and neck measurements. I would suggest that you measure the dog and then pick a size.

We got the small for our Malti-tzu who is 14lbs and 17in. girth and it fits him with a little room to spare (has adjustable straps) and we got the medium for our pug who is 23lbs and 25in girth. The medium is really too long for him but because of his thick broad chest & neck we had to get a larger size (he is only 15in from his neck to tail the malti-tzu is 17). The life jacket does have a neoprene belly band that is made to fit a little snug, but does not seem uncomfortable to the dogs (it has a small margin of adjustment to it). It's a very well made life jacket and you can't beat this price anywhere. Your dogs' girth is so close to the max for the small it could probably fit a medium but keep in mind that it would be long and maybe even a little loose. However, if your dog keeps a summer haircut the small may be just fine. Hope this helped you.

The measurements for the vest are correct from this company. I have a Stafford Terrier and he was kind of in between sizes. I got the larger size because he tends to gain a little weight during the winter and he is very muscular.

I bought the 11"-13" girth first and had to return it for the 14-16" girth. The first one could have worked but it was adjusted as big as it would go and there was no room if he put on weight or when it gets cold so he could wear a coat. The next size up is adjusted as small as it will go and it fits loose enough for some air flow but not too loose. He has room for a sweater underneath in the winter. It just seemed the most versital way to go. I love the vest!

I'm not sure about the sizing because I can't remember how it is sized, but my dog weighs 40lbs. and he wears a medium.

Look at ruffwear site or call them. But my dog is 47 pounds and wears a small so 50 prob wouldn't make a difference. You just need to measure for the fit. Ruffwear has measuring info on their site. I've found my dog to be a small across many of their coat types. But she's a border collie lab mix so her torso is a lot thinner than a pure lab. Just measure to be safe.

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.

You can google "puppia size chart". This particular vest shown at left is not always accurate. Sometimes my dog wears a large and sometimes an x-large. But, Amazon's return policy is great.
