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 (29 in), the Romanian Carpathian Shepherd is the joint 17th tallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the tallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 26 in: Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Sloughi and Akita. Same drawing, different listings: a Romanian Carpathian Shepherd’s, a Sloughi’s and an Akita’s figures are each the lower end of its male range, a Chesapeake Bay Retriever’s the top of its male 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.
