    They usually have collar sizes that have like XS, S, M, L, and XL. Bellow that they usually have the types of breeds that fit that size. Just check them out at a store before you buy.

    He may still grow so you need to get one that will grow with him and not be too small too fast.

    A normal collar on a dog is loose enough to fit two fingers under without pressing hard. Measure the dog’s neck, then add at least 4″ for overlap at the buckle and for growth. Some pet supplies stores allow you to bring your dog in and you can try on the different sizes to find the length that your dog needs. They’re measured in inches.

    it all depends on the mesurement of his neck. you can just take hime to the pet store, try on a basic collar and then get a spike collar in the same size.
    just make sure that you can fit 2 fingers between your dogs neck and the collar.
    if you cant fit 2 fingers the collar is too small. if you can fit more than 2 finger, then it is too big and it will likely come off.
    hope this helps. :)

    Wow, that was quick! Congrats on the new pup. =)

    No idea where you’re looking for collars…. best bet would probably be to measure his neck. Even though his biggest growth spurt is probably over, still safe to leave a little wiggle room.

    Where’d you end up finding him?

    Glad to hear! =) I’m sure you’ll fall in love with him. They’re very sweet dogs.

    Congratulations on your new dog!! :)

    Boxers are some cool dogs!! :)

    I have a Akita! :)

    But yeah as for a Collar size i would say take him up to Petsmart and check out there Spike Collars and just try on a few on him! :) But i would say probably a 20 inch or 22 inch collar here is a Spike Collar at Petsmart!! :)

    I think the boxer dog does look cool. Well to buy him a right collar you should measure him first. Use a fabric tape to measure. Measure around the lower part of you dog’s neck, or where the collar is most likely to rest. Allow two fingers room for comfort.

    Then you can choose a collar. If you’re visiting a store, just taking you dog, and have him wear the collar for a trial. If you’d like to buy online, then you’d better choose a web shop which gives measurements of their collars, so that you can decide which size you should buy. I notice that some website would note XXS, XS, S, M, L, and some would have the measurements very clearly shown, for example: 20mm X 20″ etc. http://www.joypetsproducts.com/picture/DogCollars/
