What size for 20lb dog?

Measure the length of your dogs head. The cones length should be longer. The cone has enough velcro to adjust to any size neck.

Make sure that when you measure, it is from the back of the neck. When a dog is trying to get at it's paws, they can easily push the collar to the back of the neck allowing the snout to reach past the end of the cone. It shouldn't be measured 'where the collar fits comfortably' as the comfy cone site stated.

I'm not sure I only know what fits my 27kg golden retriever (XL), but if you measure your dog's snout and make sure the cone is bigger than that, it will be big enough to stop the chewing.

As two previous answers noted -- the length of your dog's snout trumps the weight. The dog I bought this cone for is not a big dog (40 pounds) and yet he required an XL due to the length of his snout. Width of cone is adjustable via Velcro tabs. But you need that length to prevent the dog from chewing/digging at the site. Once more, this item has been well worth its cost -- tried other cones but this is the one that worked while appearing to be fairly comfortable for him.

I think this collar would be too big for a dog under 20 pounds. It was a good size for my 50+ basset hound, after adjusting the strap.

I think, depending on the age, I would just go with large. I have two larges and my 23 pound pekinese poodle is fine with the size.

My dog is 20 lbs and he fit a small. I ordered a medium first, but it was a bit too big. Even the small has plenty of room to expand if needed. I think 30-50 lbs would maybe be the medium size, and higher would be the large. There seems to be plenty of room to adjust the chest straps. The neck hole adjusts minimally.

I have a 12 lb Shih Tzu and he has a bit of "wiggle room" you might be pushing the limit with a 20 lb Pug.

We have a 20# Jack Rossell mix. She is rather long and has short legs. We are glad we got the medium rather than the small. A medium will easily handle 40# but I would look at your dog's height and length rather than weight. We are happy with are purchase.

It would be way too small for a 20 pound dog. Additionally, I couldn't recommend this product because it is very poor quality. I was told I could return it, however, the company never followed through.

medium. My 20 pound furkid and my 10 pounder both are comfy in the medium size.

I would say large is plenty. My dog weighs 20lbs and I want him to have plenty of room so I choose this brand. Plus it's made in USA and great quality.

Yes it would work for a 20 lb dog. I use it for my two Cats (at the same time). My only concern was the bottom was not very stiff so I put a piece of 1/4" wood in the bottom and covered it with an old fluffy towel.

It might technically fit, but it would likely be too heavy and cumbersome for a dog &lt;20 lbs. I think for a small dog there are smaller and cheaper options.

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 got a large for my Cairn Terrior and he weighs about 25 pounds. It fit great :)

Our dog was just under and the vest(small) was a tiny bit snug. Don't know what next size up would be but rather have it not slip. At 20# might try up a size. Good luck

I have two 20" tall dogs-one weighs 48lbs, wears size M, the other, a muscle bound pit mix weighs 67lbs and a large fits well.

Yes, my dog is just over 20 pounds and is long (dachshund) and is fine in it.

I have a 20 pound pug. I got the small size and it is just perfect for her.
