I'd like to get one for my dog, she's a Beagle, how would I go about measuring her to see what size she'd need? She's about 25lbs. Thanks in advance.

I went to the website Outward Hound Backpack Sizing Chart When picking out the correct size for your dog, Outward Hound recommends using Girth as the first major factor. You should correctly find the widest part of your animals chest(Rib Cage Area), and size accordingly. Weight is a secondary factory in case the Girth were to overlap! Remember you could always contact us prior to ordering for expert advice. I went to the website [www.myoutwardhound.com]. It had measurements for girth, neck, and weight. I think you could set your dog up with a pretty pink backpack with those measurements to fit her correctly. My chow-chow mix fell right in line with their measurements.

Not sure how you would measure her, but based on the size of my dog I think the small would fit your beagle. My dog is a Daschund mix, 16 pounds and the pack fits her but is a little on the large side. Had to tighten the underbelly straps almost as far as they would go. There is a lot of room for girth.

I actually saw the backpack at petsmart first but their prices are ridiculous, so I searched online for one that was more affordable. Your beagle may be either a small or a medium depending on her girth. There also should be a size chart that may help you decide. My Yoshi is almost 80 lbs and he wears a large.

According to the company website, a 25lb dog should use a Medium. However, there is a sizing chart on the company website, www.myoutwardhound.com

I have an outward hound, earlier model, the large says 50-79 pounds, I bought it for a 65 pound lab, it was way too big for him, but did fit my 90 pound German Shepherd. The straps are as tight as they'll go for my 77 pound Shepherd and it's really too loose. I'd go by the girth measurement rather than the weight.

Hi there! It can be a sort of guessing game - I Googled Doggles and found a size chart (for your ease, please find it here: http://www.petstreetmall.com/static/doggles_sizingchart.aspx), and used ribbon to measure my pup's head. She's a Boston Terrier and I ordered a small - fits perfectly.

Hi... To be honest I cannot recall the size I purchase for my then 85 pound chow. We had to return it, however because of a malfunction in the design. I am sorryiamunabke to be more helpful.

Look at ruffwear site or call them. But my dog is 47 pounds and wears a small so 50 prob wouldn't make a difference. You just need to measure for the fit. Ruffwear has measuring info on their site. I've found my dog to be a small across many of their coat types. But she's a border collie lab mix so her torso is a lot thinner than a pure lab. Just measure to be safe.

Thanks for the update! My corgi is 25 lbs and I was actually looking at large! I'll order a Medium now.

You should measure their length from shoulder back to rear end of dog (not including tail). Then measure their girth around the largest portion of their chest. With these measurements you should be able to see what size your dog will need. Thanks!

Can I ask what you ended up getting for your Berner. We have a Berner also and the xl at 4" seems a little large. I don't want them so tight it is uncomfortable though. She is 100 lbs and getting weak in the hips.

Medium or large will work. My dog has both and she is about the size of a beagle. It just depends on how you want it to fit.

When I ordered mine I went by the measurements in the description....if your dog is still growing that I would take that into consideration also on the size you will need....the measurement I found to be accurate and true to size

My collars are used on my hunting beagles. It may look a little big but it does not weigh that much. I have to use the last hole in the collar, due to the GPS antenna on top, on my smaller females but they have never lost one in the brush. My beagles are 12 1/2" to 14" at the shoulders. The DC40 might be required for the terrier since they usually have smaller heads than a beagle.

Our beagles fit great into a medium. Our male is 40 pounds and our female is 36 pounds. They're a great product and the dogs don't mind wearing them at all. So they must be comfortable.

This is for a dog that has a back that will fit an outfit that is 14 1/2 inches long. My suggestion would be to measure your dog's back. this will be more important than your dog's weight.

You need to measure the chest just behind the front legs to get a good fit. You can't pick a size based on weight alone. Use a shoelace, mark the length of it around after wrapping It around the dog, and match that size up with the sizing chart.

It is best to measure inches around dog. I bought by my dogs weight and it fit fine. They are adjustable to a certain extent.

You can go to the manufacture's site for my info. I have an 80 pound dog and had the same question. The manufacture's site has a trick for getting the proper measurements

As a matter of fact, I'm using it on a Beagle mix now, and it will fit just fine. There is enough collar that you can cut off the extra.

Hi, you would really need to measure your dog's girth. I have a 20lb pug, his girth is about 23" & it's very comfortable. I would read all the details of product to see if it's doable. Hope this helps.
