Would this be too big for a 6 month/11 lbs puppy? She's a beagle/dachsund mix whose body is built more like a Dachsund.

I think the bowl will work for any size pup unless it's teeny tiny like a chihuahua... I do have to say that the more complex bowls work better than the simple ones to slow them down... you could also get the ball that you put in the dish to try, but for my dog, these "maze-type" dishes have made a big difference in her eating... she has basset/am bulldog... and she's all about her food!

When I first received the bowl I thought it might be too big for my dog as well, but he did just fine with it. :) I have a 15lb MinPin, hope this helps!

The size isn't the problem. I think it's too difficult for a puppy to use. If the pup gobbles food better to get the Indipets bowl with a bump in the middle. That worked better for my 10 month old. He was so frustrated with the Kyjen that he just flipped it over.

I don't think so. Although it's wide, it's about 2" high. So she could easily put her feet on the bowl to reach until she gets bigger

That should not be a problem for your puppy! We have friends who are also getting this for their Jack Russell Terrier since they have seen how it works. We have owned both a Dachsund and a Beagle and they should be able to handle the dish...it's kind of fun to watch them eat and manage it!

Probably. I firmly believe in NOT putting the feeding dish on the floor but raising it to the dog's chest level. My dog us a large breed dog so all I can suggest to you is buy one, try it and if it is not right for your dog, return it.

My doxie is all about her food and she loves the flowered bowl and no it's not to big for a 6 month old puppy, remember she's going to get bigger. I also have a mid size chihuahua who was a super fussy eater and since I've gotten him the bowl, he has enjoyed eating and has managed it without a problem.

I purchased an small and my dachshund weighs 10 #. It fit around her body ok but neck was too big. I might suggest a medium. (but I'm not an expert)

My dog was a lil chubby 19lb she fit perfect! I love this purchase for her. I think yours should be fine your pup just may not have room to move around a lot. I have a doxy so a long body and it's perfect. I did a lol of research and this was by far the best! Good much!

We have the small one for our Maltese and she is under 10 lbs. I would think a Dachshund would take a small size also.

My 6 month old is 16 pounds and is sill in the smaller one. We have this large one as well but it's still bigon her. Since you are close and wouldn't mind it being big, I would go with the larger one.

I have a 55 pound retriever mix and almost two of her could fit on the medium which is what I bought. I am sure if they have larger sizes the mastiff would fit nicely. She has hip problems and it is her go-to space now. She loves it and so far it has not lost its shape.

I bought the smallest size of this harness, but our pup (a toy poodle - bichon frise mix) was too small. She is now about 20 pounds but I haven't tried it on her recently. It seems from other comments, everyone is finding this harness runs big.

My puppy is a toy poodle I've had since 8 wks n she has had plenty of room to grow. Hope that helps.

I think it will be too big. We have a 35lb Beagle mix and when we put it around her neck there is an extra foot of strap hanging off. We have to put a rubber band around the collar and tuck the tail end up under it or it drags on the ground. In hindsight I probably should have got a bigger collar but I thought she'd grow more. I haven't seen the next size down though, so I don't know how that would fit. Also I don't know if it's possible to get a smaller strap for this unit.

A large would be too large. My beagle is 11kg and he has not outgrow half of the small yet, we still have half of the strap to adjust. I bought him a size up, the medium and it's still untouched.

My jack Russell is16 lbs. fits her just right, I think it would be a bit small for your lab mix.

Those different sizes weren't present when I ordered mine. But, the 18 in fits perfectly for my 50 lbs dog. I would guess it'd be too large for your puppy.

Yes and maybe to big! I have a lab and she weights 74 lbs and the neck was too big so I think a Doberman is a bit smaller so I would order a large, but I returned mine and they gave me a full refund! Hope this helps

I think this would be way too big and heavy for a little dog. I think sport dog makes a smaller one, maybe dogtra does too.

I have a 6lb Pomeranian in mine and he loves it. Just the right amount of room to play around in. I think it'll be just fine for your Yorkie.

Maggie is a 10 pound, very calm Havanese/Bichon/Poodle mix. She just knocks the toy over with her paw to get the treats out. We have the large size because the small was not available. I think to avoid your beagle picking it up and bouncing it, I'd go with the large and hope it will be too big for her to pick up.. Hope this helps. I will try to post a picture of how Maggie plays with the toy a little later

Probably too big. Large is what you will need when puppy is nearly full size.
