I have a Rottweiler who will be one year old in two days and he is 29" tall and weighs over 100 pounds. He is 18" around the neck. sp We are using a medium for him and there's plenty of room still in the collar for him to continue to wear it for awhile. I hope this helps. Rena G

I have a cocker spaniel mix with a 12" neck and the medium fits just right when tightened. Not too tight, not loose and that's at almost the largest it'll go so I would go with a large for a dog with an 18" neck. Hope this helps and I highly reccomemd this collar for any dog!!!

It looks like the medium is for 16" to 24" so I would think the medium should be fine.

Madeline, I'd go with the large. These collars adjust so I'd go on the large size. I ordered these for the shelter that i volunteer walking the large dogs at. I walk all the big dogs from Pits to Mastiffs with one collar and I am pretty sure it's a size large but I am not 100% sure!Good luck. I will tell you that they are great for strong pulling dogs and they don't "CHOKE" them to death. Susie

I have a year old puppy with a 13 inch neck and I ordered a medium. It ran a little big but there was plenty of room to make it smaller. I ordered a large for my GSP adult male and had to size that to fit as well. My guess is they run large but are easily sized to fit your dog as needed. A puppy is going to grow but an adult dog will stay true to size. Hope that helps. We love our collars!

I agree that the small would probably be a good choice. My dogs are around 20lbs, but were a little heavier in the past. I have to cinch a medium down about as small as it goes to fit the neck. I was afraid that something that fit a 6 lb dog, the small, might not fit mine, but the straps are long to allow for a wide range of size variation. Knowing that now, I think a small would have been fine for mine as well.

I'd say a medium. My dog has a 16 inch neck and a medium fits her very well.

I'd go by the size chart on Premier's website for guidance. I bought a large for a 16" neck on a Mal, but I agree that there are much better collars for control if that is what you're working on. I bought this so others that walk my dog and aren't comfortable with prong collars could have something on the dog.

I measured the collar I bought, its 15 inches long. the company says that's a medium . looks like you might need a large.. you can work with the collar if its too large , but not if it too small. I love the collar. I hope I helped a little. get it home if it doesn't fit return it.

I extended the collar fully and it measures 21 inches. if your dogs have a neck size of 20 or less it should be a comfortable fit with a little room to grow.

You can actually contact thane.com who sell the Don Sullivan Perfect dog collars. S.M.L correspond with the neck measurement of the dog. Small is 14" to 18" and so on. For a puppy that is expected to grow into a large do you may perhaps want to size up since the dog will be growing. Best to check with the company though, I am not an authority.

I would buy a medium size. My dog's neck measures 19" and I bought a large. The collar is adjustable but the smallest I can make it is right about 21" so the collar slides around his neck and if we walk for very long, it is a sure bet that I will be turning it several times to keep it in proper positon. The gray box has to be under his neck and it likes to slide to the top.

The collar pictured is a versatile size and should work well for you. The length is long enough for larger dogs and can be cut shorter for smaller dogs

I'd go with the Medium. The collar stretches a little over time, and you have to tighten it periodically. I think eventually, the collar will be too big if you go with the Large.

My Shepherd mix has a 16-17 inch neck and I got the 18 inch collar which I can slip over her head easily. It fits her well. It has really helped me as she does not pull when walking now!

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!

Sorry for the delay, I don't check my mail regularly. I ordered the medium for my 25 pound small dog and had to remove 4 of the links.Which left 6. These can always be added back in later if needed. My dog pulls really hard and this size works well for that. Her regular neck collar is 14 inches. I hope this helps you some. I also had trouble deciding which size I needed.

The product description on one of these (medium/large) collar lists medium neck size 16-19" and large neck size 20-24". I believe my boyfriend and I use the large one on our two big dogs, both weighing in close to eighty pounds. It depends on the size of your dog and his neck.

My dog measures between 16 and 17 inches on the neck and the 18 fits well. I think that the 18 inch collar may be a little small and hard to slip over her head. This collar has been a blessing for me and my dog is now much easier to control.

I ordered an extra large for my German Shepherd who is 100-105 lbs. It is adjustable. The pictures of the package suggest a Medium for the weight of your dog, but you should measured his neck. Do a search online and you will find the proper way to measure.
