We recommend you view the detailed sizing chart below (or download the full guide HERE) to choose an appropriate size for your dog.
Please actually measure your dog for the appropriate size. The breed recommendations are only a rough guide. The actual measurements from your dog are more accurate. Measurements on the size chart are of the protector lying flat (so the half the circumference).
