What a Thai Ridgeback’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 20-24 inches. The listing describes an adult dog, not a growth chart for puppies.

Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (24 in), the Thai Ridgeback is the joint 105th tallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the tallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 20 in: Australian Cattle Dog, Chow Chow and Shar Pei. Same drawing, different listings: a Thai Ridgeback’s figure is the lower end of its range, an Australian Cattle Dog’s the top of its male range, a Chow Chow’s and a Shar Pei’s each the top 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.
