The size 1 fits pretty darn good - but if he grew toooo much, it'd be the wrong size. The size 2 fits, but is really kinda big - but he may grow into it.
There is SUCH a difference btwn the sizes though, you know! I do love the caramel color, btw.
I do think the 2 will work for you - the pain is that you'll probably have to put it on the very tightest notch, which makes for a lot of leftover "belt". If you go size 1, you'll probably use the loosest - which is much easier to take on/off - but if they grow, you're sunk. The diff. in armholes is really apparent as well. |
Marcel and Lulu are the exact same size then. I know she is done growing...she has been that size for like two going on three months now. The vet did say due to the spay she might gain a couple ounces but nothing significant unless I over feed her.
Ack...she has twigs for legs....right now I have her shaved down because after her surgery she had a lot of mats and it's gotten so hot. She really is a puny thing.
I called the BB company and the lady suggested the size 1 because she said it might stretch some enabling some growth room. But I remember when I got one for Lex I had to get a size larger than the chart because the belt seemed a bit small. It's hard to buy something for that much that they will grow out of easily.
I think I am leaning towards the size 2. Normally I don't have anything on her ( I take her potty off leash in our backyard) but when we go out I want a good harness on her so the on and off is not too much of a hassle if I have to really adjust it down and have a long tail.
With the size 2 on Marcel when you have it on the tightest setting...is there a lot of room in the girth area?
