what do you consider medium?

[borzoimom]

You are pretty close- its 20 to 55 pounds.

I agree with the weight rage you listed, but NOT the height range.

of my own dogs:

Happy-I, and anyone in their right mind who looks at her would say she is Medium. she is 30lbs, but she is 21" tall.

Misty-I also consider Medium, she is 18" tall and 30lbs

Electra-again, Medium she is 17" tall and 30lbs

Blair-my last medium, he is 15" tall and 22lbs

Ripley-I consider small, he is 13" and 18lbs

Perky-also small, at 12" and 20lbs.

I actually consider medium to be...cocker spaniel/Springer Spaniel/Wheaton Terrier...etc. Large would be lab, shepherd, etc.

I consider all of my dogs to be medium sized dogs. They are about 19-22" tall. I go more by height than weight, because a dog of the same height can easily be 25 lbs whereas my dogs are 55-70 lbs.

Fenway is 20 pounds and I consider him small. For me, medium is 40-60 pounds.

[lute]

i consider a medium sized dog to be about 35-60lbs. My Gracie weighs in at 55lbs. She is a medium sized dog.

[Flatcoatluver]

I would consider my two dogs medium. When I think of large dogs, I think of great danes, borzois, St. bernard, etc.

[Husky_mom]

I go for size too........and also consider medium a cocker, a pit, a bull terrier, a bulldog, a dalmatian, a schnauzer..........

husky, lab, rottie, dobie are big...........on the bigger big, akita, shep, malamute

and huge come the saint, dane, mastiff, etc........

as for small I go with pug, westie, poodle, pom, maltese

and for tiny a chihuahua, yorkie

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

I consider anything between 25-60lbs (approximately) to be a medium sized dog, with a height of between 17-23". Large to me is 65+lbs, and anything taller than 24" tall (with a few exceptions).
