Would these training collars be too big for 20 lb and 35 lb dogs (miniature aussies)?

They would work just fine for a dog 25lbs '& up these are the best training collars i've tried so far but I've had some trouble with them malfunctioning

Not at all, in fact you may have to trim the collar's length. I did! I have mine on a 18 lb. dachshund.

It suits for training 15~150 lbs dogs .If you think it's too big ,you can try Aetertek AT-216S-2 ,here is the link :http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IJ34614 for your reference.

Yes. We have two 95 lb labs and they fit well and can adjust to accommodate a larger dog.

I use on a 20 lb dog and it's fine. Just had to make adjustments to the collar.

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.

The small might not fit them. It has plenty of adjustment. Our terrier is 20+lbs and its in the middle of the adjustments.

no this would not work way to big it seems like they have a special collar for smaller dogs. I ordered this and had to return it for a 15 20lb dog but also have a yorkie and there is no way it would have worked for my yorkie I thought it was almost to big for the other dog

Diane, I would not recommend this collar for a 8 lb dog. I have a 16 lbs dog and this collar fits slighly lose on her. This product is more for medium and large size breeds.

No - the collars won't mat the fur - but be sure to measure. I bought the Large for a 35 lb Cocker Spaniel...it fits but its way too heavy. I think the medium is a high as you should go.

Hello, I have not had a problem with these collars, I have a 60# lab youngster that has not broken it. I have used these collars for 3 years an have not had any problems with them on any of our dogs. I would highly recommend them to you.

Dear Ancient One, both collars are 28 inches long. They should fit even the most `ancient' of dogs.

I wasn't able to use collar -- my dog didn't weigh enough. I would call the Dogtra people and see what they say. Good luck!

Yes, but it may be too much of a jolt. I would go for a smaller collar and go with a brand other than Sportdog due to their reliability issues

My dogs are quite a bit larger than yours, at 65lbs or so. However, my sister uses this with her poodle mix and with her yorkie and both are quite small at 15 or less. The yorkie is under 10 lbs, for sure. I think the collars she has must be a smaller version, though.

I have toy poodles (5 and 8 pounds). They work very well - and they don't look too large on their collar either. Love them!

Possibly. I think it's probably just because I have small dogs with small collars. They are beautifully made and if I ever have a larger dog again, I would not hesitate to purchase another of these tags.

I think they would be okay. My smaller dog is about 42 lbs. and has no difficulty. You could easily limit the use and not keep the collar on all day. The unit is a little bulky, but not real heavy. You can easily cut the collar to length. Since I have only had to use the vibrate function, I cannot speak to the shock, but the control is variable, so your dogs should be fine if they need the extra stimulus.

This collar is good for dogs 8 lbs and up who have a neck size of at least 6". If your dog is smaller, it is better to get the little dog collar instead of this one.

I believe that this collar works best for all dogs over 12 pounds. We have a small mini-dashound and while it will adjust a works fine on her, it is too big and cumbersome for a "small dog".

No. This collar fits my dog well and she's #35. It would overpower your yorkie.
