Can this thermometer be used on a large dog?

Seems like this thermometer measures temp in any subjects, I don't see why it couldn't be used on dogs

I don't see why not! I tried it on Golden Retriever and it seems to be accurate

I just went onto the manufacturer's website and the large collar is for dogs over 18lbs. Hope that helps.

The infrared thermometers generally depends on the response of the color of the surface being measured. You have to check if this one is a a multicolor Thermometer. I can tell you that works really fine with my soon. But take a look also to verify the measure range, because can be different for dogs (sorry I'm not a Vet.).

According to the Einstein web site, this collar can be used on dogs 5 lbs or larger, so you should be okay.

yes. It works great for large dogs. One zap and they wont come at you again. It doesnt seem to harm them, just freaks them out.

I'm sure you can. I use mine for snake heat mats. Just make sure you put the probe in a place where the dog cant move it. I drilled a hole in the bottom of the enclosure and placed the probe inside, with the heat mat under the cage. The probe reads the surface temperature of the cage floor and not of the heat element. I have 3 of these thermostats and they all work really well for animal heating. They are often a few (+-4) degrees off though.

I do not use the one I bought. In fact I have it set aside to donate to a local Alzheimer's facility for their annual yard sale. I bought it for a 20 year old 7 pound cast. If is small and hard as a rock. I subsequently bought a heated bed for her. I doubt it would provide much comfort for a large dog. Hope is helps.

I had a large, it worked great. My golden retriever got along great with the help it gave him. Please don't leave it on him all the time as it started to rub on him and he got an sores where the harness rubbed underneath him.

I have two very large dogs. One is 130 pounds and the other is 165 and they have a very heavy under coat. I have only had it a few days, but it's doing a good job of removing the under coat. I guess if it works for them it should work for your dog. Hope this helps.

I do not think this would accommodate a dog that large. There would not be enough room for it to stand up or turn around.

Absolutely. My largest dog is about 20" at the shoulder and zooms right through it.

I have a Weimariner. Tall dog. He is next to it all the time. It won't activate unless there is a body part directly above the sensor. He would have to put his head over it. Mine is a food a holic and has never done this. I would say you will have no problems.

don't use this for large dogs. This is actually dangerous to use ...period.....mainly because of the materials ....cheap ... and can and have failed.

I am not able to answer that question regarding a pet. We placed our sensor above a door. The sensor still pick of movement from the door. So, I would assume, that a large pet might also activate the sensor.

you should have no problem, I have slightly larger dogs, but I only use it to vibrate, not shock. You should try it on yourself to see how the shock works. I have had to change the collar that came with it because my dog ate the first one... once my dog knew what it is, he only needs to see it to cower. I don't keep it on him.

We used this with a our. 100lb Lab. and it worked perfectly. We were able to sinch it up.....you want it to be snug. Personnally, I dont think it would be big enough for a large Mastiff, if yours is as big as our friends dog is. You might want the extra large.
