How tall is an Entlebucher Mountain Dog?

What an Entlebucher Mountain Dog’s height measures

Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives 17.5-20.5 inches (male), 16.5-19.5 inches (female). Choose the sex or size variety above where the source separates them. A range describes the published listing, not the height of every individual dog.

Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (20.5 in), the Entlebucher Mountain Dog is the joint 134th smallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the smallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 17.5 in: Brittany, Spanish Water Dog and Finnish Spitz. Same drawing, different listings: an Entlebucher Mountain Dog’s, a Spanish Water Dog’s and a Finnish Spitz’s figures are each the lower end of its male range, a Brittany’s the lower end of its range.

This is a published species or breed reference, not a prediction for an individual animal. Where a range is supplied, both ends appear with the reading. Shoulder height and head height are kept apart when comparing animals.
