My dog measures 11" behind the ears. Would you recommend a small or medium?

Our dogs both measure 14" behind the ears. They are both medium about 40-50 lbs. We bought the medium which fit our dogs well (had this collar for about 5 years). Perhaps the small would be best. They are very flexible in size and easy to fit!

If your dog is done growing I think the small should be enough. I bought the medium 1" for a Bernese who now is 85lbs. The collar allows some room for adjustment around the neck. Very sturdy collars and gentle around the neck. Easily washable. Love the loop that fits your hand to keep the dog at arm's length. Good luck.

A medium is too large. I recommend the small. My 75 pound pit mix takes the medium.and it fit s perfectly.

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 purchased an small and my dachshund weighs 10 #. It fit around her body ok but neck was too big. I might suggest a medium. (but I'm not an expert)

I think you would use a small. The med fit my standard dachshund. He is narrow but has a deep chest and goes 29 lbs

I have a 42lb Dalmatian. I got the extra small for her and it has room to spare. If I remember correctly she was right on the line too. I would put my money on the medium.

My doxie is a mini too (11#, 12" neck to butt ) and the medium fits best. Gives a little room to lay down easily.

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

My dog is 15 lbs and it fits comfortably (maybe because he has a narrow waist). I think the small would be a bit too snug on a bigger dog. So, I would go with the medium.

I would suggest a medium for your dog. My dog is only 7 lbs and a small carrier is just right for him.

the medium is a little bit big for my 5 pound dog - so i would get the smallest one would work just right for you.

My dog is about twice your dog's size and wears a small, so I would assume extra small.

My dog is pretty long tall and lean and the medium was good. I think a small might be good for you unless his chest is big for his size. There is quite a bit of leeway on the straps as well.

Judging from the size of my dogs, I probably would go with the size small. My 25 pound terrier mix fits nicely in the medium. Hope that helps.

I think I would go with the small. I have 2 dogs, one has a small, the other a medium. The measurement is at the base of the neck, NOT the one up by the ears. The larger of my two [got the M] has 15 1/2 in neck at the lower point, and there is a LONG amount of collar-tail left over once it was fitted to him. The M is heavier / wider 'stuff' as well. My smaller one is a strong-willed loud-screaming male, and he was well-controlled with this. As a side note, I still swap back with an older gentle leader [head type] for ease/speed of use much of the time.

I ordered a small for my 10 lb dog, it is rather big, so for yours, I'd say a small.

Hello Michelle. Our dog weighs 15 lbs (she is a MORKIE) and she fits a Small nicely. I think that a Medium would probably be perfect for your dog. They are easily adjustable. Overall the Lifejacket is great and we're very happy with its functionality and quality.

I would recommend the large but I would not be surprised if that doesn't fit. The measurements provided for the small were exact and if that remains so for the large, then the back length will be too short for your doggy.

If the dog is big around the belly go with large. The medium has lots of adjustment around the neck area.
