I have a twelve pound dog, can this be used on her? Does the vibration continue after you let go of the button?

Yes you can! I used this on my Chihuahua, and it worked great. There are two levels of vibrations and you control duration. This startles them and stops the behavior. I wouldn't use the shock feature because of the size of dog. This should work for you, good luck!

It might be a little harsh. My dogs are Labrador Retriever's ~ 80lbs. The collars didn't last but a week or two. I had to send them back. I wouldn't recommend.

I purchased it for some friends with a seven pound dog and it was safe as well as effective. The dog may act like you've killed it but it's because it is startled. I tried it on myself and it will make you jump but it doesn't really hurt. It vibrates for just a moment when you push the button.

I have a mini pin and I have used the light shock on him, but mainly if I just push the vibrate button he comes dashing back. I have had this collar for 2 years

The latch is pretty hefty. I use it on a dog that weighs and 35# and one the weighs 50#. On any other larger breed it would work fine. I do not use it on my 10# dachshund; the latch would drag on the ground. Something less substantial, and less expensive, would be more appropriate, unless you have a giant chihuahua.

What a neat idea! I would think a dog would not have any problem hitting the button (with nose or paw). The button is very easy to push/engage.

Yes it does. Not sure if the vibration varies however my dog quickly got used to responding to just the vibration.

It should. Try only using the vibrate at first. only use the shock if you absolutely must. The shock does scare them but the vibration does too. The vibration is a good warning do it 2 or 3 times before you even think about shocking. my dog is about 8 pounds. I don't have to use the shock hardly ever. the vibration scares him enough

Hello, dear customer, this dog trainer can be used for small or medium dogs. The item has a shock or vibration when it works. and it has no hurt to dogs. best regards, lemonbest

Well.. my dog is aprox 12 pounds,and I think that the steel pices in the harness could be to heavy for her walking for a while, but maybe with a bigger dog could work. The wheight of the harness is 160 grams ( whithout the part for the seatbelt)

Yes you can use the vibration alone. There are no different levels to the vibration. It doesn't hurt the dog, it feels like, when your phones vibrates.

The collar works on vibration and sound together. There are some utube videos of people who put these things on their neck....Not adviseable to put it on your neck....If it is on your dog and the dog barks there should be a change in the dogs behavior after a few barks.....

My mom uses this same collar on her 12 lb shitzhu, the collar adjusts to a pretty small size so I think you could get the right fit with some adjusting. Personally, I've used this collar on three dogs for training now and I've never had one hurt, they figure it out pretty quick and the beeping before the shock is a wonderful warning.

I'm not exactly sure. I'm using it on a 90 lb dog. His shock level tolerance is about a 3-4. Level 1 isn't nearly as strong so it could possibly work. Also, the vibration mode could help do the trick without shocking.

It makes a tone without shocking, but I don't think it is a vibration. When you first use it (when calling and dog won't come or going out into a street), simply tone her. When she continues, do a low shock. After doing that a couple of different times, she now comes at the tone to avoid the little shock that would come next. It works very well. In fact, just putting the collar on her seems to keep her in the yard.I just read Craig's answer so I guess it does vibrate. Husband is the disciplinarian so I don't know that much except that it works well. We have never gone above the 3 or 4 setting to shock.

We have a 9lb. female shih-tzu/chihuahua and it is a little big but it works just fine. She's always on the go and it doesn't seem to slow her down. We've never had to shock her or put it on vibrate. One beep and she's right by your side. Very satisfied. :)

It stops the pulling but not as you want it too don't use for big dogs it will break

Yes. And I love the option of vibrate or shock. It works great for our 2 dogs.

Yes. I actually bought mine for use on both me and my Chihuahua. There is some vibration and the noise frightens him, but your dog may be fine with it since he's bigger. It works really well.

Yes. This has a setting that goes from low to high. We used it on our 126 lb dog, and used the highest shock. However, he got used to it(he is oversized and they said that could happen). I think definitely worth it. If you don't want to spend the money, then I would get a coffee can, and put loose change in there. Everytime the dog barks you shake it and it terrifies them. They learn to stop.
