Would this be too heavy for a much smaller dog? 5 lb Pom.

Yes I believe it would be too heavy, but I also got a very light one when my dog was a puppy, and think it would be fine for your dog.

Yes I believe it would be to heavy for a 5lb dog. I think they come lighter. if not get some clothes line rope but some clips and tie them on real good and that would be fine for him or her. I have a shihi-poo he ways 26lbs. and i got a clothes line rope for him. Any hardware store will have the rope and probably the clips, but I do believe they come in lighter weight. I bet he or she is cute. i think Poms are real cute but so is mine. Good luck you will find something.

I don't think so. It's pretty light weight. If there was a lighter-duty one with an equal length I would go with that though.

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

My dog is only 5 lb, but I'm sure you could carry up to 10 lb. with no problem, any pets weight more than that might be too heavy on your shoulder.

I have two mini poodles 12 & 15 lbs. and I think it would be a tight fit. I have one for each dog.

I have a five pound bunny and she can just fit so I would have to say NO your Pom would be squashed sorry to say

I think this would be way too big and heavy for a little dog. I think sport dog makes a smaller one, maybe dogtra does too.

Absolutely! My dog is considered small and weighs about 18lbs...He has plenty of room.

My Brussels griffon weighs nearly 17 pounds and was fine so i think your mini pin should be ok

Hi there. I used it on a small Norfolk terrier, weight 8kg (about 17.6 pounds). It was big and bulky for him around his neck. I would think that it would be far too big to fit under the chin of a tiny 5 pounder.

i would say no right off the bat but how small is small? there are weight limits- i wouldn't put it on any dog below 25 pounds

It is a nice pet carrier. But I have it for my 3 lb. Maltese. He fits fine. We have a 5 1/2 lb Pom also. it would be to small for her

I would say No. Not comfortably. My dog is 5 pounds and he has little room to rotate. 10 pounds, max. Also, experiences from our hikes, the padding is heavy quilt and no air circulation so, on hot days your pet will overheat. I have been wrapping a gel icepack at the bottom to keep him cool.

I have a small puppy and it is fairly heavy so I haven't had any issues with it moving.

Nope. For a larger dog. Also, too heavy and powerful for small dog in my opinion.

I have a toy poodle who weighs about 9-10 lbs and she fits into the small quite comfortably, so small should be fine.

Nope. I have two five lb poms in mine and granted Chi's are a little more determined but unless left unattended for a long time they will be fine....it came in a plain box. We only had to attach wheels. I love taking my dogs places!

While it's not really that heavy, it might just be way too big for a dog that size. Hope this helps.
