For a mini schnauzer I purchased Medium. It says to measure around the nose area in the sizing instructions. I purchased one for our home and a second one for the car!

I bough medium for my 16 lbs mini schnauzer and was too big for him. I will say large.

I would suggest a medium based on weight, but take a look at the following. The size chart I used from the company says petite (under 5 lbs like toys and puppies); small (less than 25 lbs- beagles, shelties); med (26-60 lbs-Dalmatian, spaniel); large (60-130 lbs -Danes, goldens, labs); XL (greater than 130 lbs- giants, oversized).

I would get a large or extra large. The Medium is nice for my two chihuahuas with some room to spare but I think it'd be too small for your german shepherd.

This is what I would recommend.Size 0 is recommended for the following breeds: miniature dachshund, papillon, toy poodle, yorkie, and similarly sized dogs.Size 1 is recommended for the following breeds: border terrier, jack russell, cairn terrier, welsh corgi, standard dachshund, sheltie, westie, whippet, and similarly sized dogs.Tim

For anyone with dachshunds, keep in mind their chests are quite large in proportion to the rest of their body. We ordered a small for our 10 lb mini dachshund and it fit well. It was just a tad loose around his slim waist but fit great everywhere else. It didn't cause a problem in the water. The life jacket also fit length wise.

Probably small or even extra small. Go to a pet store and try one on and the order if you need to

I would suggest a medium. My dachshunds are about that weight and the medium works perfect!

It depends on the breed of the dog. I have mini dachshunds and they need a bigger size for the chest.My 11 pound 4 yr old wears a medium. I do love the style and he loves the comfort.

the have a regular size and a large size. The regular size will be ok for a small dog

Without reviewing the size chart, I would say an XS. My 16# mini schnauzer fits nicely in a medium. Good Luck.

I purchased a large for my 75 lb. German Shepherd. That is my only point of reference. The first time I got one, I got the XL and needed to take a prong out. I think a medium would be good for your doodle. Good luck.

I have no idea about the size of a mini schnauzer. I can tell you that the size of the medium carrier is for pets up to 16 lbs, 16" in length x 10" in height. Measure your dog carefully.

Definitely not a small! A small fits snugly on my 22# terrier mix. I agree with the previous poster, a medium would probably work for you.

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.

I suggest the 5". There's no draw back to getting a larger one. The toy isn't made to be carried around by the dog, but rolled and pawed around. Its lightweight, even with food or treats, so there's no worry about the bigger one being too heavy. Like others said, the larger one would hold more and would have less of a chance of being lost under things. Go big! =)

I would think that a large would be your best bet. The medium is 19 inches by 24 inches. A 40lb dog could probably fit on there if theyre curled up in a ball.
