5. YOUR PET'S SIZE
Except for birds, a pet can be longer and taller than the carrier's length and height because our furry friends have a very soft body, and they often curl up inside when the carrier is in motion. Most importantly, you need to consider your pet's size, not his or her weight. By size, we mean your pet's height when standing and his or her length. As a general rule, your pet should be able to stand up and turn around inside the carrier. As our pets' bodies are very flexible, you may not need to have the full length for the pets to fit comfortably inside.
<cellpadding=1> Your pet can be taller and longer than the carrier's size! Shown on left is our world traveler Milo, one of the few dogs made it to the Base Camp of Mount Everest. (photo courtesy of Andrew and Josh). As he travels frequently, a smaller size carrier is more compact and convenient for his guardians. Often, it is a compromise between you and your pet! 
Celltei® pet carriers are well-made sturdy carriers that can carry heavy weights. When choosing your pet's carrier, remember it is your pet's size, not his or her weight, that you need to consider. Please use the size chart below for reference.
We also offer Custom Designs
. Shown on right are one for a tall bedlington terrier and one for a dog with long body with a modified flap shoulder strap that is more comfortable for heavy weight. Please also check on the breed specific suggested listed on the Dogs
and Cats pages.
