How tall is a Lagotto Romagnolo?

What a Lagotto Romagnolo’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 17-19 inches (male), 16-18 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 (19 in), the Lagotto Romagnolo is the joint 105th smallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the smallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 17 in: Australian Kelpie, Norwegian Buhund and Puli. Same drawing, different listings: a Lagotto Romagnolo’s and a Norwegian Buhund’s figures are each the lower end of its male range, an Australian Kelpie’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.
