Trying to "roll" a mini schnauzer puppy instead of traditional clipping. What size would get the jacket to a short length?

First - I don't know what "roll" means unless you're trying to get him drunk and then steal his car keys. Second - instead of going with a jacket - why not try a nice sports blazer - it's not as long and it's comfortable in the spring and fall. Third - I am sure that this stripper is bigger than your dog and therefore shouldn't be used on him - it might give him an inferiority complex - and that's just mean.

I bought this to strip irish wolfhound coats. It took undercoat and thinned it

I would go for a smaller trimmer version, this one is more suited for clipping the body just b/c of the width of the blade. I have a giant schnauzer with huge feet and it was wider than I would like to trim his feet just b/c it was hard to get the blade head between his pads.

Go to your local pet store and try one on your pet. Make note of that size and dimensions and then match it up to the sizing on this one

I use this model on both of my Great Danes. Plenty length for them but too much and too big for my mini Dachshunds. I use the small dog on them.

You need to order a larger size than 3. I have a mini schnauzer and the size 3 was too small.

I have a 16 lb mini schnauzer and she just fits when she curls up she doesn't stretch out in it. Hope that helps you.

I would suggest the xxsmall. I have the medium and my dog is 40 lbs, a few more lbs and the medium would be too small. For 9 lbs and 12" girth the xxsmall should be perfect. The next size up I fear would be just too much material for the little one to handle. The material wraps around tummy and velcros together and straps hook for added protection so jacket doesn't slip off. I hope this is helpful.

I use a Medium for my Corgi mix who weighs in low 30's. I haven't seen a small one, so I'm not sure how much smaller a small really is but you might be ok with a small, definitely ok with a medium

I have a corgi and got a medium. It was way too big even on the smallest adjustment. She slips right out of it. Had to return it.

My 5 small dogs range from 9 lbs to 21 lbs.. The small was way too big for the 9#, the medium was ok for the rest of them, but too short in the length to the tail for the 21 lb. Ordered the large for the 21# and it was HUGE! I ended up altering the small slicker for the 9# and altered the large one for the 21#......I recommend if your pet is at the higher end of the range for a particular size, I suggest you order the next larger size. If the slicker is not long enough to cover the pets back, what good is it? I like the material and the quality. But the sizing can be tricky. The sizes are for the length and girth of the pet, not the lbs. Hope this helps. My 5 small dogs range from 9 lbs to 21 lbs..

Hi, go on www.pawsaboard.com, they have a sizing chart based on weight, I chose small, I have a bichon that is 22lbs, fits him great, I love this jacket, really looks cool and seems to be well made. I did buy mine on Amazon though.

I bought 2 for my 6lb. & 7lb. Yorkies. The vests fit quite snug on them, but they have bellies. A Dachund is quite lean & long, aren't they? So, quite possibly a small could work. Sorry to ramble, but with all this info you can better decide if you want to try a small.

You can only adjust around the waist with the velcro and there is a little pull tab that makes the tail hole smaller. Our german/lab mix is about 70-75lbs and they fit, but they have gotten slightly looser over time. I don't think the XXL size would be good (that's the size I'm using), but possibly a smaller size. The pull string on the tail eventually becomes useless because it gets messed up when you wash it and it sticks to the velcro. If you get the right size meant for the your weight of dog, my guess is it should be okay - can always put it on and if it doesn't fit, send it back?

My Mini Schnauzer is 17 pounds and the small works great on her. We have the next size up for our rather large 32 pound Male Mini Schnauzer and that one is too big for my girl. You definitely don't want to use the larger size on your pup.

No it should be just fine for your mix. I think that it might be difficult for anything smaller (mini doxi), but a standard dachshund and heeler mix will be a good size. Once you have fitted the collar you can cut the excess. And you can always keep it on a lower setting. I keep the collar on the lowest setting; and increase as needed.

I bought a small K9 Float Coat for my 2 Jack Russells, both around 6kg, and it works perfectly. Wonderful and very useful product. But, for a more accurate answer, you should contact Ruffwear. http://www.ruffwear.com/-9-float-coat

I have two Mini Schnauzers and the small to medium size I bought works fine. I slip the holder on my dog and then clip it to the arm on my grooming table. If you need more room for the height of your dog, adjust the arm on the table so the dog is standing in a comfortable position. For us, its a must when trimming under the tail area and clipping feet. I used to need someone to hold them to keep from sitting. The extra restraint seems to keep them still while I trim their brows and beard as well.
