I have a long haired 18lb cockapoo with long wavy hair that gets matted up really bad. Should I get a 12, or 10? What size would be best?

Not sure as I have a 20-blade for my English Cockers that works very well. Guess I'd suggest the 12 over the 10, but not entirely sure.

I have miniature schnauzers, which have the long skirts and legs, and I use a 12 on them. I think a 10 would be better for a lot of matting.

The size is for Leigh of hair 10 is nearly to skin. If you don't have a lot of experience in grooming don't use these you can burn the dog skin real easy use a 7 it's leaves the hair a little longer but it's safer the the dog

You may want to get the long hair one. My dogs are boxer/bull rescues with pretty short hair.

I think it depends on the age, if dog is young and still growing, I would get a large. My dog was under 1 year, but was close to 75lbs, so the large worked out well.

Best to go by weight. I have a Doberman and got the XXL based on size but they were too long, ie, they were too long from waist to tail and difficult to use. Also, with a cropped tail, it doesn't work too well but they definitely served their purpose and worked well.

I would get a medium. I have a 12 pound chihuahua and got her medium. The small was too little.

Considering you have a large breed, it is best to get the L size. Your dog is only 10months and she would grow even more in size.

I'm sorry, I don't know anything about a shih Tzu. I have a mini schnauzer. In the summer I use the 7. In the winter, for a little longer, I use a nine or ten. I would think, if the hair is matted, I would cut it pretty short so he can start over with a clean slate. Just my opinion.

I order a small for my 3 pound poodle and a medium for my 10 pound havense. I would probably go with a small

I haven't had any problems with matting fur on my dogs. Really only one has long hair, German Shepherd, but no problem with matting. Another dog is a rescue and she didn't have hardly any hair when got her. She's been a part of our family for a year now, and she has a beautiful coat. Her hair is about an inch long now. But still no problem matting. Maybe your dogs have much finer, softer hair?? I love, love these collars. They are sturdy, perform beautifully, and look awesome. You might want to consider a rolled leather collar? Hope this helps. Oh, I would probably lean towards the medium size. Hope this helps you... and your furry babies!

I'd get the smallest size - I think that they're all the same height so the yorkie should be able see out, will have plenty of curl up room and will feel snug without being cramped. We had that size for our 12 pound chiauhua mix and it work well. We bought the medium for our 16 lb rat terrier and it is right for him, but with room for 5 or so more pounds of dog.

I got a medium for a 35lb Border terrier. He had a big head. Kind of square. but he hated it. So it didnt work for me. Good luck

I think you should go with the long hair version. A Griffon seems to me to be in the middle with a semi thick coat which the long haired one would probity work better. I have Shepherd mix and went with the long hair and it works great.

I agree where is the sizing to work out size for your breed of dog. I have a staffy, Can anyone help? I am looking at Suede shearling coat. Thanks

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

The small just fits our 10-pound Dachsie-mix. She has a wide chest and lots of hair. If your Boston is wide across the chest, go medium. Our 12-pound Shihtsu-Schnauzer is just big enough for the medium.

I don't think weight has much to do with it, rather the size of the feet is what counts. Both your breeds are built for speed and have slender legs and smallish feet. I'd bet the Medium would work best and would be easier to handle than the Large. If you try Medium and it's too small, I'll swap my Large with you!
