I think this brush will be great when your dog is young. When he grown, you may need to add a metal comb-type brush to get down deeper into his/her undercoat). Also, I'd go with the larger since your dog will be larger in short order.

My only experience is with my lab mix. She sheds a lot but does not have a long coat. The large brush works for my dog but not sure how the slicker brush would do for the long coat.

Well I got the Medium size one that measures 25 inches by 18 Inches but it takes the Large Absorbment pads from Costco that measure 24 inches by 24 inches, which I just fold side under and it will not stick out. I would recommend not get any larger Tray or you will have to special order or go to a specific pet store to pick up Absorbment pad that is extra large, or use 2 pads, which could get more expesive. I looked around there are not many sizes bigger than Large. Of course I have a poodle so if your trying to house train a huge dog you might still need a large one. Even my poodle could of used a small floor tray he seems to only use half the medium tray.

If he is short haired then a medium would be ok. I have a Shtz Tzu and even though he has a lot of hair it was too big for him.

Mine is a mix of shepherd, husky, and something else, so he has med. long too and it works well. You may just have to remove hair from rake more frequently, but I think it will work well for you! It really does a great job getting that undercoat out and keeping it contained for the most part.

I think he'll be just fine, especially since he is a puppy. One of my dogs is just over 20 pounds and she does great with them. More important than the size of the dog would be the condition of his teeth and the strength of his bite. Since yours is a puppy, these may work until he needs the larger size. Another option is to buy the larger size and just give him half a stick. They break easily.

Hi, I have a "mut" that is supposedly quite a mix; Akida, Wire Haired Datshund and American Bassethound and Doberman...well, he is 9 months, 50 lbs and SO SWEET. I have been training him since 3 months to be a service dog that can go into hospitals. Elderly, Sick Children and Chemo patients. The most important part of his training is to "heel" ALWAYS on my command. He is still a puppy and although pretty amazing...he tugs away at another dog...sometimes a blowing leave!! I tried a few collars/harnesses and leashes and this is the one I like best. It is EASY on/off. I HATE those metal "choke" collars, I don't care what the reviews say...they hurt!! This collar takes a little toll on your hands if your dog is strong but..I think the humanity of it is worth it. One quick tug and strong voice of discipline has been working for me. As a matter of fact..I just bought a few to give out at our dog park to some new doggie friends! I hope this helps. How much does your dog weigh?

I would go with the large one for med to long fur, unless your German Shepard has short fur. I use the large for long fur on both my dogs, one has long fur he is 70 lbs , the other has short fur and he is 45 lbs.

Long coat does seem to matter. I just trim the coat where the prongs of the bark collar go. That works for my dog.

I would think a medium or M/L would work. The one thing bad about this muzzle is that it doesn't have a strap on the top of the head, so it's pretty easy for a dog to just rub it off their head. It's worth a try, but I've ended up using the rubber muzzle that a big box pet store keeps on the shelf. I had to buy two sizes of that and return one. Better would be to bring the dog with you to try it on. That one is labeled Baskerville but is actually made by Kong. It is the one that my vet recommends. I would not buy any of the other hard muzzles from Amazon. I bought two, thinking that the Baskerville one was so heavy it would be uncomfortable, but one was flimsy and the other had very hard spots that would be very uncomfortable. I've used the Baskerville one several times, and haven't had any trouble with it. (Scarey visits to the vet, toenail clipping before she finally got the idea that treats are worth it!) Good luck with it!

I got a "Large" for my Shihtzu. It is stated to be 6.2 x 6.2 x 6.2 inches. My dog is 7.3 kgs (about 16 lbs). It is light enough for her to fling around and shake about. She also has no problems carrying it back in her mouth in a game of "fetch". Jumbo is just slightly bigger at 7.8 x 7.8 x 7.8 inches - it may be a better size for your dog since he or she is 20 lbs?

I have used it on both my large dogs and small breed dogs. As long as they have long hair it works great. If your dog isn't a long hair breed, I would look for a different brush.

I would say "Yes," because my Dog is a Japanese Chin who weighs 12 pounds. Best of luck to you and yours!

Hi! Sorry? Just saw this from yesterday right now. I got it large for my 34 pound mixed breed, and I wouldn't get it any smaller. So, definitely go with the large? Also, I actually looked at a YouTube because I couldn't figure out how to put it on.mi'm not stupid, just too impatient to read directions so I exhaust myself! Lol. It's a great thing. She walks so much better! Good luck!

I have a 50lb, 20 month old German Shorthair and it fits him with PLENTY of room to grow. If anything, it's too big because the excess just flops around. I love this e collar and it is 100% worth the money. It has completely changed how we hunt together. Hope that helps! Email me with any more questions... Bjcoyne@mail.usf.edu

I use this on my 40lb kelpie as well as a 70lb boxer/lab mix with no problem - I am 5'4 and the brush fits perfectly in my hand. On the flipside, i could see how this would be too big for small dogs maybe 20lbs and under.

If I remember correctly malamutes aren't broadchested, right? I got my 80 lb lab mix a large and I've got 2 1/2 nearly 3 inches until I can't loosen it anymore. The large should suffice, but if she has a larger neck then I would consider an xl
