I have a 7 month old boxer puppy named Griffin. Right now he weighs about 61 lbs. The collar he has now is 18 inches in length and is on the last hole. I m guessing that by the end of the summer the collar will need to be replaced. I am not sure what size collar to buy him. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Measure your dog's neck in circumference and add 2 inches. That should be the right size.

I used to artwork at Petsmart - all their collars are listed through fact the biggest length they might pass to. In different words, that "18 inch" collar you tried on probable became a sixteen-18 inch. yet, the superb thank you to get the superb greater healthful is to certainly take your boxer into Petsmart and initiate attempting them on. do under no circumstances thoroughly have confidence the size listed, issues get positioned back interior the incorrect place and labels get switched around. the only confident-hearth thank you to discover a appropriate setting up collar is to objective them on him on the shop. If he's slightly rambunctuous in public basically ask the cashier up front to web site an worker to help you. good success!

try 28, 22, or 24. you will be dealing with a big dog and you want the collar to last forever. bring the boxer to the store to try them on. that will definetly help the fit

Get the most adjustable one possible. Any good store will list the range, for example, I just bought a Large, 18-28".

Just get an adjustable one and when you can fit 2 fingers in there sew a couple cross sticthes to keep it in place. That's what I did. If her neck gets bigger I'll just take out the cross sticthing and adjust and restitch.
