Will a 10 lb. Shih Tzu fit into a small carrier? Do you have this carrier in a medium?

I have fit many dogs in these carriers and I would probably go with a medium for a 10 lb dog. A small is maxed out at 10 lbs the med would be a little more roomier for her or him

I have the small and my 9# Affenpinscher barely fits. A medium would most likely fit better.

I use this for my 4 lb Yorkie. It's great but I think a 10 lb shih tzu would be really uncomfortable, a tight squeeze. I would go medium if possible.

I got a small one for my 13 week old min pin.he fits in fine (perfect fit), but that was a week ago and he's grown fast. I left it at my mom's house so haven't put him in for a week, but think you'll be better off w/ a Med b/c Shih Tzu's have lot of fur? Plus my dog weighs less than 10 lbs still

no, this is the L version of the carrier. the S version is 10 x 19 x 13 - not sure if your pup would fit in that one.

Hi- I bought an extra small for my 10 pound daschund - It is a little snug, probably a medium would work-

Yes. I have shih tzu's that have plenty of room. I would say not suitable for anything bigger then a small dog.

That would depend on the dimensions of your dog. This medium size carrier will accommodate a dog up to 20 pounds.

The x-small fit my 10lbs shih Tzu. The adjustable straps are all the way out so I would probably go with a large and you could pull in the straps in needed.

I would say no to two of anything older then 10 week old puppies. I bought my 1st of this carrier at a TJ Maxx. And then came to Amazon for another 5, that is how much I like the style. My Maltipoo flies commercially with me about 1x a month. The carrier fits under a seat, but the top does get smooshed down. My Maltipoo is almost 10 lbs is 16" inches from the base of his head to his tail. He is 10" tall from ground to top of shoulder blades, around his chest he measures 13" inches. He can stand and turn around and loves it. But in all honestly my Maltipoo loves being in purses and carriers. My other fosters, just slightly larger by say 3lbs and 2" length or height are not so pleased with the carrier. Also I caution the opening is small. My guy likes crates and such so he sneaks right in. For the other doggies I have to unzip the sides and drop them in that way. Hope this helps

I think the small carrier is only 12" high. My puppy weighs 8 lbs and is about 10" tall and she fits fine. The actual size of the carrier is 18" X 14" X 12". If you dog wieghs more than 12 - 15 lbs I think it might be a bit tight. I think they come in other sizes but not totally sure.

my dogs is a Papillon and she's 11 pounds but 20 inches long there seems to be more room that could fit into that carrier for weight size. I bought the medium size. Which was perfect. I think the small size goes up to 10 pounds.

Yes. I bought this for my 10 lb dog. It's a snug fit, but he can turn around and fits inside. He is usually lying down when he gets in the carrier.

I have a shih tzu and she is 9 lbs. she seems to be good. I believe it fits up to 12-15 lb dogs. It's a nice cage.

I have a 10 pound dog and got the medium but should have gotten the small. She can roam around in it.

It will be able to fit a pet that is 10lbs or less. It is a little small if you have a pet larger than 10lbs

For the Large size yes, two small dogs may share the same carrier. For the small size it seems too tight, not sure the dogs would feel comfortable.

Just measured ours. Looks like the medium, pictured above, is correctly measured. Ours is about the same size as yours on the bottom which makes it a small. Its interior is a perfect fit for our Shih Tzu, all 11 pounds of him, and he loves riding in it.....in comfort and style. This was a great investment and it keeps him safe and happy.

Most definitely! My 10lb yorkee fits with plenty of room, and fitting another dog his size would be fine
