What size is realistic (vs sizing chart) for a Golden Retriever, about 75 lbs...? Super Large? or Extra Large as sizing chart woudl indicate?

The extra large might work. It is important to measure the height of your dog and the depth of its chest cavity. Also, do you have room to adjust the height placement of the door opening. You don't want a large dog to have to jump too high to get out.

I have 2 English Mastiff's that use the door and I would say it could be slightly bigger for them, but for a Golden it should work well.

I have the super large. My 100lb newfie and 75lb golden both use this all the time. Depending on how big your golden is the extra large may be a better choice to save on heat.

I would say a large for sure. Have an 80 lb black lab and the extra is to big. Go with the large

I have two Golden's. One weighs 69 pounds and I purchased a large for her and the other weighs 98 pounds and she has a size XX-Large. They should fit snug. They really work and are made of very nice and lasting material.

Well, when we had a Golden Retriever, she was about 65 pounds, but I'm fairly certain you are more interested in the size of the backback to fit your dog. When you select the size for the item, the bulleted items below the size and color selectors will change and provide the details you are looking for.

My dog weighs only 68lb, he's wide st the front and smaller at the back, I got an XL size at first but had to order a LG instead, I think these sizes are generous, my dog is a golden retriever / pit bull mix, you can adjust the straps but mine is still a little big for the dog, it is a good strong harness though and it's easy to put on, just slip the vest over the dogs head and then lift one leg slightly over the strap and the two padded straps fasten at the side, it's on in seconds and the dog loves it because he's comfortable and you have complete control of his body without pulling on his neck. :) hope this helps.

the weight of your dog means nothing. the person below bought large for the 105 # dog and they're too big. I bought large for a 70 pound dog and they fit perfectly. you have to do some homework. look up the brand online, find the measurement instructions and go by that.

I'd recommend being conservative and going larger rather than smaller, if you are trying to decide between sizes. They have a size chart on the ad, but without looking at it maybe you'd be OK with a large. I have a 70 lb but very lean mixed breed and thought I could get him into a large, but he ended up needing an extra large. It fits very nice and my dog seemed happy to put it on, but in the end, my dog is tough to get into the water, so I never got to see how well it kept him afloat.

I have a golden retriever and ordered the size large.. He has no problem coming back in. I think a 25 pound dog would do fine going out and coming back in if you ordered a medium or large. A 15 pound Pekinese has trouble using the large door on his own. Hope this helps. I am very happy with the door so far.

Not sure... my dog is a 80lb golden. His chest measurement was right at the transition between Med and Large. So I used a Large and it's been great.

Roscoe is 150# plus St. Bernard puppy still learning to swim with a 38" chest measurement right behind his front shoulders and an XL fit him great. I would go with a medium for your golden.

I know that the extra large that was recommended for my rottweiler was way too big. I would say that the large would be more in line possibly for your dogs. Hope this helps.

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

Our Bernard weighed 160 and the large was great. Its adjustable. Enjoy your big guy, we sure miss ours! I do still have his tags and collar!! :-)

The extra large is for 4" and up. The large is for up to 4" and the medium is for up to 3". So I'm sure one of those will for your dog. Just pick a size that comfortable for him/her to walk in

I have a 75 pound shepherd, she is wearing an XL. It has a lot of room to make it bigger tho. If he's a puppy and 55 lbs I would for sure do XL.

Hello, It is tough to say without the girth measurement. I think the large will work for a long time but he could out grow it. However, the X-Large might not fit right now and he will have to grow into it. If you measure his girth and let me know I'll be able to better fit him into the right vest.Regards,Doggie Stylz

I have been using a Large on my 80 pound Golden since he was 30 pounds. It is adjustable. I still have room to adjust. I think I would get the Arentine Mastiff mix a large if he/she is grown...the English Mastiff would get the extra large. I hope this helps.
