| Tip of the nose to end of their lil butts. Just wondering, My yorkie is a lil long and thanks to Aimee i was able to buy clothes for him that fit him well but I seem to have a problem buying him a carrier. I was on some sites that some of you guys posted up and the carriers are so cute like for instance The Bali Carriers but the ones that Rambo seems to fit in are the ulgy big bulky Plain old Black bulky ones. My boy measures from the tip of his nose to his lil bootie(butt) 20" inches in length. How long are everyones Yorkies ? |

| PetEdge.com has some cute carriers and they are comparatively cheap! One of my yorkies weighs 16 lbs! I don't know how long she is.....I'm at work now. But the carriers go by weight...at least that's what it says in the catalog. |

| Yes, he does meet the weight requirement for the carriers . He is about 7 pounds but he never meets the length requirement. I'm guessing no one has this problem? Spydergurl- If you don't mind me asking . what size is he carrier? |

| I'll look around for you and see if I find anything. Sandy is long, but weighs too much as well for a carrier. If I see anything, I'll be sure to let you know

| Hi Rambo's Mama! I have the same exact problem!!! I have a 8 pound yorkie and she's really long!!! I bought a carrier from petedge (the plaid/Burberry looking one) and have the same problem... my dog will go in it but it's a really tight fit and her head has to be out. I too don't know what to do. the bag sizes were probably the biggest i have yet seen. I'd like to find a carrier where she would fit comfortably even when her head is inside.

| Baby is 20 inches from the tip of her nose to her tail, but I thought most measurements were based from the back of the neck to the tail??? From that she is about 14 inches?/?/ Just a thought?" |

| Yes, Usually it is measured from the neck to the tail but in this case My Rambo can't fit his whole body in the carrier. I have and old carrier for him but he's grown out of it. He can only sit down in it and can't lay down and just like HONEY said , his head has to be out as well. |

| what kind of carrier do you have I love baby? I don't think there are to many fashion-forward carriers for bigger-small pups...unless we use something not very attractive.

| I actually don't have a carrier...I'm a poor college student and can't currently afford one, but hopefully this summer I can! Sorry I couldn't be of any help! |

| My Lillie is 18 months old and weighs 8 pounds. She is 18 inches long... Too, long to fit in her bed, so her butt hangs out! |
