Default Dog breeds in order of 'size' - UPDATED UPDATED LIST!

Hi all!

Thanks for your help - sorry to have inadvertently started the Norwich and
Staffordshire Wars. (It was good fun watching though!)

Many posts pose the suggestion that if I could reveal the purpose for the
list it may be easier to offer helpful responses.

Unfortunately, if I reveal the purpose of the list I shall be shot down in
flames! Without getting near (I hope) to flaming territory I can reveal that
the list I'm preparing is a list of dog breeds which are suitable for a
series of five sizes of dog attire, the suitability mainly - but not
exclusively - determined by the chest size; sometimes the overall size of
the dog (eg, a daschund, or a whippet) is a more substantial factor than the
chest size. Hence the indeterminable factor of 'size'.

Any more comments gratefully received.
