Sporn.com gives neck/lbs measurements. I personally think a small would be plenty big. My shihtzu maltese mix has a 11" neck/17" chest and a small is big on him.He weights 14 lbs.

The small will fit up to 12" chest - measurements under the front legs. We have a 14 lb shihtzu and we use the medium because it gives more room to take it off & put it on, also nice length on the lead. The small we use for our little 7 lb papillon/Yorkie.

my miniature poodle took a 3. I am a groomer and I see a lot of miniature schnauzers you should get a 4.

This is the review I submitted for this harness under a different color. Hope it helps!:"I have ordered several of these harnesses in the light blue, pink and purple as my mini dachshund has grown and they are all beautiful. They have rich pigmentation and are well-made. They seem to run small, so make sure to measure your pup. My baby girl is 11 lbs now and fits the MD perfectly. She was 4 lbs in the XS (which was a tad loose when we first got her) and 7ish lbs in the SM, for reference. I **highly** recommend them if your concern is a harness that won't pull on the spine, especially for Dachshunds. She has grown up in them and refuses to use any other kind."

Just read other responses, I'd check the Cesar Millan site as suggested. That is how I decided. My smaller dog who wears the small is short haired. My medium size one has long hair & a much gentler personality. He is more into the Medium size per fitting info but I think he could wear a small.

Is that in inches around the chest? I have a chihuahua and got the small. but a bigger dog, go with med or larger, there should be a list of sizes on it. They will take it back if it doesn't fit.

Small and medium I believe. I have the medium. My Staffordshire Bull Terrier, 14" at the shoulder and 37 lbs. sleeps in this crate every night. It's just the right size for this purpose.

I got the s/m when my cat was around that size, though he did grow out of it relatively quickly (young maine coon) if you go to the makers website they have neck and chest measurements that will help you too! there is some play as its velcro and there is a built in level of adjustment. hope that helps some

I'm not sure. My Catahoula measures 23" around neck/shoulder area and 36" around his chest. If I ordered the medium size, it is too big and I had to modify it. Sorry I don't have an exact answer. My dog weighs 74lbs.

I have it in small and adjusted to the smallest it can go around the body of my 3 1/2 lb 2 year old yorkie and it fits a little loose and the neck will be bigger to put it on and off so it is a little big...but works...she is petite.I would say the small would fit yours adjusted bigger and the neck would fit perfect.

I think go with the medium if she will be in there for more than 30 min. I got the small for my galah but he only stays there while I transport him to and from the car. The small is like for sun conures, Quakers, Indian ring necks, caique and other small parrots.

For my Scottish Terriers I got Mediums, 10 to 13" neck size. Depending on what type of dog you have determines size. When you look at them on Amazon each size gives the neck diameter they fit and a general list of the type of dogs each is suited for.

I have a 17-20 pound Welsh terrier and the medium was a perfect fit. We originally bought a small based on the Thundershirt sizing but that was about 2 inches short on his back and too snug around his chest. Hope that helps.

i agree with Deborah Brown's comment. I returned the medium as well. mu chiuaua is 10 lbs and is 9" at shoulder and 13" long from chest to start of tail. seeing only the medium size, i'd need an extra large (which i don't think think they make. it seems like the medium would work for teacup sized dogs (< 5lbs) that are very docile.

Sorry to just respond. I have a pitbull mix (about 75 pounds with a chest measurement of 28 inches). We ordered a medium and it fits well when the straps are all-the-way tightened. Not sure what's best for your dog. If your dog is full-grown, then probably a small.

My dog is a 10" to 11" neck size and weights 4 pounds... I could not use the necklace they sent as it was way too big!! I'm not sure about the exact size as the Co. sent the wrong size.. I ordered small (of course) who knows what size they sent. My best guess is it's a medium. I had mine re-strung to fit her. Cost 20.00 for that!! So this neckless sure turned out be an expensive one. I hope you have better luck getting what you order..some of the over-seas company's send what they have in stock and know we won't return it as the postage is so expensive that it wouldn't be worth it. Wishing you luck in ordering receiving the correct size...

I think the medium would fit. I have a 15 pound mini schnauzer and I have purchased three different colors in the medium. The neck is big on my dog but the strap that goes around the belly could be adjusted out to be much bigger. I have a 35 pound Goldendoodle that wears the large so I think the large would be to big for you little dog.

Not to familiar with that breed, but I can tell you I purchased a small and it fits my 5 month old puppy she is about 7.5lbs now, however it is starting to get small around the neck. This harness pulls over the head so I will probably need to order a medium in a month or so.I love the harness, it works great &I; get lots of compliments on it! I will order it again
