Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Neck Size for Adult Husky Empty
PostSubject: Neck Size for Adult Husky   Neck Size for Adult Husky EmptyWed Feb 08, 2012 11:11 pm

Hey guys, I was wondering if you could do me a favor. I wanted to order Luna some dog collars online, but I want her to grow into them. Having never owned a husky, I have no idea what the average adult husky's neck size would be. Im thinking medium is good 12"-19", but I really have no idea as large would be 15"-23" so there is alittle overlapping with the sizes. If you guys could measure your adult huskies and let me know what sizes they are, that would be really helpful!

Thanks in advance! wave

Willow is 17" and she weighs in at 50 lbs. I get the Medium for her. Dakota was 19" so I had to go the large for him. He weighed around 65lbs.

Zoey's neck is 16" and Embrys is 18" They both usually wear a medium, sometimes a large on the smallest setting.

If the adjustment room is there consider going with a large as it will more likely be a wider collar then the medium. I've ordered both sizes over time and noticed that the large is wider.

thanks for all the responses! i think for these particular collars with large being from 15"-23" it sounds like i should be fine with a large, along with Len's point that the large would be thicker than a medium. Thank you all i just couldn't wait until she was older to order them, I'm too excited !! haha.

Just keep in mind that if you order RuffWear gear, their products usually run big. Ginger is on the smallest adjustment on medium size harness and collars and Storm can fit into a medium size collar with LOTS of room for adjustment up or down. Storm will fit a medium harness on the biggest adjustment, or a large on the smaller adjusments.
