What is the weight limit on this bag for a small dog? My dog is 16 lbs., shih tzu.

My dog is a toy, and is 5 lbs. She fits comfortably in it and can move around with ease. It is a good sturdy bag but while on vacation we could only hold her for a half an hour max before we had to trade off with someone else because she would get too heavy. I do not think a 16 lb dog would be comfortable in it or you would be comfortable holding it. I would look into getting something bigger. If you were planning on using it for air travel it would be too small for a 16 lb dog.

I don't know what the weight limit is. I'd be far more concerned about the dog's height and length. I had a 20 lb. Lhasa apso and I doubt he would have been comfortable in it for very long. I bought it to fly my 8 week old papillon home. I now use it as luggage when we travel by car to put dog items in. As far as using it to fly, the dog needs to be able to stand up, turn around and lay down in it. It was great for that and works great now as luggage. There is a sturdy mat in the bottom to give it good support. My best guess is that it would hold 16 lbs. It seems very well made.

I saw this bag on a different web site and the description said the weight limit was 15 lbs.

Best thing I got for dog travel to store or just out, my puppy is only 6 lbs but she has a lot of room

My dog is 12 pounds and has plenty of room. My guess is 20-25 pounds would be a maximum.

Yes, I have an 8 pound Chihuahua and I ended up exchanging my bag with a friend who had a smaller bag. It was a much better fit.

I have 2 Shih Tzu's, I bought one for each of them to sprawl out on. The two of them together would barely fit on this. I would say it can fit a 40 lb dog comfortablely.

My dog is a 7lb Shih Tzu and it fits her perfectly, it would probably be big enough for maybe up to 9-10lb as long as it doesn't have too big of a chest, most small dogs have smaller chests than Shih Tzu. It really calms her down during a storm, really pleased with mine, would recommend to everyone. Hope this helps.

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

I got this bag for my chiauhaha puppy who at the time was only like 2 pounds. He is now 6 months old but still smaller than the average chiauhaha at about 3-4 pounds. He fits perfectly inside it, but the zipper does pop open when he squirms around. I wouldn't recommend it for a 15 pound dog.

This bag is great although it would only fit one dog at a time. Our shih-tzu is 4.1 lbs and he fills up most of the bag.

Not sure, but my 12 lb shih Tzu fits in it just fine. Best with a dog harness instead of a collar.

My dog is 16 pounds and has plenty of room. I'm guessing that it would be cramped for a 65 pound dog.

This item may be too small for a 16 lb dog. My chi/mix fits well in it and he is under 12 lbs.

We have a 5 pound Shih Tzu and ours is great. Very sturdy and soft. Just check on the shipping because ours took weeks to arrive.

Yes, your dog would fit. I have a 12# shih tzu that I bought it for and he still has a lot of room. It is soft but will not collapse on them, it is nicely padded. The zipper comes on the bag but you don't have to use it if you do not want to. I typically do not use the zipper either.

I no longer have the bag. I can tell you though it was a tight fit for a 2 point puppy. I don't think anything over 5 pounds would fit.

It would be a tight fit at best. I'm putting a 5 LB Chihuahua in it and it's roomy for her. I tried putting my 15 lb Chihuahua mix in and she's significantly bigger than the bag. Unless your dog's going to curl up really small, about half of him will be above the top of the bag when he's sitting up.

I don't think so- I have a 50lb labradoodle, wiry dog- fit him perfect. If you check the description for this bag, I think it tells you up to 85lbs? But I think it may also say not for dogs under 30??

I have three Shih tzu.the biggest 16 lbs.right now it's on the second to last setting.Im pretty sure the top last setting will be fine for bigger dogs.you can probably figure something out to mount another bottle on the back,if needed.additional bottles can be purchased at your local pet store,but they tend to drip.
