I have a mini doxie that is 13lbs. I tried a seat that is shorter, but he is too long. with his short little legs, will he be able to see out?

My dog is 7 pounds and is very small (Yorkie Pin). She would have to remain in a seated position to see out. I put a small travel pillow ($3.00 at Walmart) underneath her to make her more comfortable and the tether was still able to connect to her harness. She could see out while lying down after I put the pillow in the bottom.

my dog loves to rest her neck on the sides. my wife suggested a pillow to allow her to see more easily that is in the large seat the medium is ok

We got the xlarge and have a male Maltese @ around 11-12lbs. He can see out but the basket is a little too big for him.

It can be set up so that he can. The booster can hang from the top strap so that the top is level with the car window. At 13 lbs I believe the booster should support his weight without extra support under it. Now the harness and inside strap can be adjusted so that he can stand or even put front paws on the booster and look out. If you think the inside is too high for short legs, a throw pillow or folded blanket or beach towel can raise the inside to make it easier for him just make sure his back is below the top of the booster so he will be safe inside the booster in any sudden maneuver. When our Mini Aussie was a 10 lb puppy she looked over the edge no problem. It can be set up so that he can. The booster can hang from the top strap so that the top is level with the car window.

Oops I see a dachshund can see out so there you go. I think it is more than 5 inches for sure but like the others say, it is an awesome seat❗️You will not be disappointed. It comes with 2 tethers so the dog cannot fall out. Well I'll say mine did not�

Yes. The top adjusts down to about 3 1/2 inches. Just make sure the door for the animal is big enough. I bought a large for a 30lb Mini Assie. Wink has really long legs. He is tall in the legs. I couldn't go by weight. Good luck.

My dog is 13 lbs and fits in good with room I don't zip him all in because inside the part the dog sits is a short leash that you can connect to your dogs collar but I do know he can see out the front if zipped hope I helped.

We have the medium size, and it can hang from the seat...however, our Bichon weighs 17 lbs. and the first seat we had pulled at the seams in the seat. If your dog is lighter than 15 lbs. it would not put that much stress on the seat. Our solution was to place a 3 inch foam cushion beneath the seat, and we have had no problems. The seat is the best thing we could have purchased for our dog....Elaine

My nine pound dog can see out the side window and front windshield. I have bucket seats in the front and it is too far away for him to stick his head out, unless he would stand and lean toward the window. I don't think that would be a safe option.

My dachshund who weighs 27 pounds fits into this thing just fine...but he loves close quarters. I would think a mini anything would work out fine.

The only way to make it smaller would be to cut it off at one of the stabilizer rings. I am not sure how effective that would be, but it might work. My dog was still a puppy -- 6 months old when we got it for him. He had never seen one and went right for it. He loves it. He is about 19 1/2 pounds now and about 13 inches high at the shoulders. Good luck. Sounds like your pup is adventuresome! Good luck.

Hi, my son has a 22 pound Corgi , Corgi's have very long bodies and very short legs......she needed height to see out! However, she could only sit in this car seat and could not lie down -was too small for her long body...they returned it and bought 2 long outdoor seat cushions and stacked them ( for a 2 person couch outdoor love seat so the cushions could handle wet feet and mud easily ) and a chest harness for the dog that attaches to the seat belt - so she won't choke or fly forward if they stop suddenly...she can sit and lie down as she pleases...every dog is different... if your dog is going on long trips then it is important that it can lie down in it's seat and not just see out...good luck!

My pom/shih tzu is 13lbs had no problems seeing out the windows. However, he wasn't able to actually stick his head out the window from the seat. I should warn you, the tether broke on mine

Your dog should fit, but it may not be a comfortable ride for the little one. My 13 pound Pomeranian mix fits and he isn't as fluffy as the normal Poms out there it it looked a bit snug. Also the padding on the bottom is really thin that I layered mine with a thin blanket which also took up more space. Hope this helps.

My dog is the same weight, but w/ long legs. I made a comment after purchasing this dog house, that it measures smaller than the dimensions listed when I got it. It should be ok. I do like (& my dog likes) the PetMate that I got years ago that is about 3 inches longer. If your dog likes to stretch out, then this one is too small. Hope this helps.

I have no idea, but I just measured my doxie and she is 21" long, weighs 18 lbs. I don't think she would fit in this or fit under a seat. Unfortunately I will not leave her home and will not put her in the cargo hold of the plane. I guess I don't travel then!

I have 8 pound doxie and a 14 pound doxie. They both end up riding in the same seat frequently so it is plenty big enough for your little one. :-)I used to have a 18 pounder and it was good for him too.

yes. my pom is 7lbs and its too short for him. His upper body is hanging out.

We had a mini lop and I feel personally that it would be a little to small. We have the large size cage for the rabbit we have now and she is comfortable

I really doubt that this seat would be large enough. I bought this seat for my 8# chi/pug and it is a little roomy for her, but adding another 17# I think it would be way to tight. Sorry---
