How would this work on a doberman (long snout) - would he still be able to reach his hind end?

My opinion is yes - we have a German Shepherd and she can reach her upper thigh with effort, but it is doable.

This is not a cone collar. This is so alittle dog can't slip thru a hole in a fence. Go to your vet and get a $5 cone collar.

Quite unlikely. Our dog has a long nose and reachimg her rear with the collar.on would be oit of the question.

My Great Dane has a long snout, and he wasn't able to reach his hind end or his stomach. The ProCollar is thick and wide, so my dog couldn't reach anything but actually liked resting his head on the collar as a pillow. Make sure you follow the instructions and weave your doberman's regular collar inside the loops of the ProCollar to get a secure fit. Also get the correct size.

Unfortunately I think they can reach his rear area and so they can do it. What I do with my poodle now is. I bought wet suit from something called k9 and sewn another piece and added to wet suit to cover part of his tail. That helps him. Even though he licks the suit he doesn't hurt himself . I know how frustrating it is I hope that will help

I am not sure, but would expect it would correct the dog even at that height. One option may be to turn the system down to a lower level of correction. Even then, it might still correct him at that height.

Hi Jo, I use it for my Afghan Hound all the way down to my Chihuahua. I simy adjust how far away they are from the air. I co sider this money well spent.

I have not, but I'm sure it could be done, providing the dog has been trained. There's an attachment on it that is supposed to prevent pulling, but I've never tried it. I think it would be worth a shot, but I could not give a definite yay or nay as to if it would work

Sure. Of course, if you are talking about a Great Dane or Mastiff, you might want them to have only two feet on at once. My ten-week old German Shepherd was using it tonight while chewing a bone. Although I originally bought this for my own balance (recovering from being knocked over by an SUV), I felt it could also be used to develop my new dog's knowledge of her rear end.

My lab is on the small side (65lbs) but it was plenty long for her. I actually had to cut about 4 inches off the end and singe the end so it wouldn't be flapping on the side.

14" from where the collar attaches to the cone to the end of the cone. I use it for preventing my weimaraner from biting his rear feet. The 12" did not work for that, as he could "bend" into it due to the long snout. This XXL prevents him from reaching the hind paws and I believe it would be difficult for him to reach his front paws. It is awkwardly big in some ways due to his slight build, but it still allows him to lay around comfortably even in his kennel. Does he love it? No, but he likes it better than one of the old style plastic cones and at least he does not try to get out of it. 14" from where the collar attaches to the cone to the end of the cone.

Your dog has a short muzzle so it will extend long enough so he can't lick. It is adjustable in width as it has Velcro tabs for the neck. My dog-a westie is 20 pounds and it's perfect I love it I see it comes in black now I have tan.

This one should work better. I had the same problem as you. I ordered the small for my mini dacshund and it was to short. So I ordered the long short and the neck width was still perfect but the snout length was much longer and prevented her from getting to her tail & back legs.

This works ok on shorter snouts. Depending on how short you may wish to go with a harness.

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!

The collar should extend past the nose at least an inch or more to ensure dog can't get to the affected area. Hope this helps.

Front elbows? Probably,My Dalmatian was able to reach his back leg with collar on. May wanna look at the inflatable ring collar. I bought both. I found the inflatable collar at Petsmart

As long as you keep the air in the ring, then they dog should not be able to reach its hind quarters. The ring secures to the dog's neck using an extra collar (that you supply), making it pretty hard to remove without human help.

I use the device on a English Bulldog. I think it would work fine on any dog that size or larger. I don't think weight would make a difference.

I returned it. My dog could still get to the spot he wasn't supposed to lick. It is not good for dogs with pointed snouts in my opinion. I found a cloth, padded elizabethan collar that worked much better. Good luck.
