No, it's very light but I couldn't get it to fit my Queensland Heeler. No matter how I adjusted the straps she still slipped it off with ease.

It might be heavy for a yorkie. Can you kennel the dog to prevent it from ruining things and also ingesting stuff it shouldn't? I wouldn't leave my dog in this for more than a few hours, as he would work really hard to get it off without supervision...

Dear Magdalena, I don;t think your dog need a muzzle. Chewing on furniture is a sign of separation anxiety (he is simply very stress when you are gone. What you need is to see a trainer who will help you with this issue. Your dog will get worse if you punish him with a muzzle. Good luck

it is rubber. I never lever mine on, only use it when grooming my dogs feet so I can not answer if it is safe to leave on longer

As long as the nodes make contact with skin, yes. If dog doesn't react, try a higher setting. Dogs will usually drop their head or yelp when it becomes uncomfortable.

This is a rubberized product. It has give to it. I don't see how it would hurt your dog's teeth. The only thing I would suggest is getting the puppy kong. This is for an adult dog. It is very large.

I think you would be ok with them being only 3.5 lbs..my Yorkie weighs over 6 and it was not comfortable walking with it, nor did she seem to feel secure in it..

My Yorkie weighs 15-16 lbs. (yes, that is big for a Yorkie). Sometimes he will lay down in the booster seat. He curls up in it and lays his head on the side. I have no idea how comfortable this is. He doesn't stay that way very long but then I have never taken him on a long trip. Your dog is a bit bigger so it is really debatable in my opinion as to how comfortable he would be in this size booster seat laying down. If you take long trips and want to assure his comfort....you may want to consider going to the next bigger size. I don't know if the Kurgo Skybox offers that or not but some brands do.

I don't know, but it feels pretty sturdy. A friend's baby used to chew on its ears, and they didn't take it away, so maybe that suggests that the fur doesn't come off.

I have a 4lb yorkie and this is fine for her. The bag itself is a bit heavy because of the sturdy construction and the real leather. It should be comfy for your dog, but not sure if it will be comfy for you to carry for long periods of time because it is a bit heavy.

I have an 8 pound yorkie she tolerate s it fine but under 4 pounds I'd say no. I'm pretty sure the actual ad tells you the smallest s weight size. You'll be hard pressed to find something to fit your dog. They tend to have collapsing tracheas when they're that tiny I'd be very careful.

I have a little Yorkie and ordered this collar for her. It is a beautiful collar but way too heavy for a tiny dog. Not sure what to tell you about the neck size but i thought I'd give you that info. Maybe it will help you decide.

I do not believe this would help with protecting your wood from the chewing. It just really protects the paint on the wood from my 9 lb. Yorkie scratching to go out. He is not a "yappy" dog, he is actually very quiet for a Yorkie, but he scratches the door frames up, so when we painted this summer we placed this over the newly painted doors where he scratches and it has held up well for almost 4 months. Hope that helps.

My one Yorkie is about 7 lbs and he does well in it. I did not find it to be unsafe and he is a puppy mill survivor scared of everything.

This is like a choke collar and it may squeeze the dogs neck too much? You cal also try gentle leader EASY WALK HARNESS which deters pulling, but does not put pressure on the dogs throat.

I wouldn't worry too much as they take a while to break down my pug had one for a good two wks and that's chewing daily. If you're worried about weight try antler chews they are rock hard and so good for them , but they'll take years to make a dent in !

It's not worth it anyways. I bought one. My dog got it off his collar the next day. He wouldn't stay still enough to let me scan the tag either to see if it worked. In your case, Sherry, I think it would be to big for a Yorkie unless the tags came in different sizes and I didn't know it.

I have a 3.4lb yorkshire terrier and she hasn't been able to squeeze through. She's not overly adventurous though. If your little guy is pretty adventurous, then I would be worried about him trying to squish through, but in general I think it is fine for our tiny little ones.

My 20 pound corgi puppy pushes the large cube around with his nose and paws. He absolutely loves it. I wouldn't worry about injuries unless you were leaving your dog to play with this toy with no supervision for extended periods. If the center core pops out (which seems to happen more with the small cubes) and your dogs chews on that core, it will get jagged. In that case, it is more likely to cause a laceration than crack a tooth. My dog plays with the large cube daily in a gated area that I can supervise. And as soon as I notice that the core is falling out and getting chewed on, I replace the cube. My 20 pound corgi puppy pushes the large cube around with his nose and paws. He absolutely loves it.

I used it on a Yorkshire terrier and the hook was a touch too heavy. That plus the weight of the cord might be too much for a puppy
