What Makes a Dog Medium Sized?
There is no official dog size classification, so we consider dogs that on average weigh between 30-50 pounds to be medium sized. This means the expected adult weight of a medium sized dog is at least 30 pounds, but no more than 50 lbs.
Below is the list of all the medium sized dog breeds in alphabetical order. This list includes purebred dog breeds as well as hybrid dog breeds.
