Will this work on a small dog? A teacup Chihuahua? She is about 6 lbs.

yes. the box is a little big but I cut the collars down to fit each one. mine chi's run from 3-8# and tea cups bit in the palm of your hand.

It might, I am not sure. I could not get mine to work and I bought 2 of them. One of them lost the battery cover first time out and lost the batteries too, so that one was a loss. I tried the other one on 3 dogs and it did not work. The directions are terrible to understand, so it is probably my fault. My dogs a terrier size.

i would not recomend it on a dog that small. i used it on a cocker spaniel dog that wieghs approximatly 15 pounds.

Probably but I WOULD NOT use this product!!!!! Find something similar probably a little more expensive but do some more research. Batteries do not last, collar is minimally effective and it BURNED my dogs neck causing minor infection. I have Great Pyrenees so use your judgement when considering use on a small/toy dog.

It would probably be a bit too bulky for your 5lb. Chihuahua. It has a strap that has been thread through 2 plastic arms and around the terminals, so I am going to say that attaching this item to another collar would probably not work well. I'm not completely sure on any of this, just going off how the collar is designed and pictures of a 5 lb. chihuahua on google.

I am not sure. My dog is a 7 lb chihuahua and is very comfortable in it. I add a little padding to boost her up a little more so I imagine it would take a larger dog well.

As far as I know, yes. I use it for 2 chihuahuas. One is 7lbs and the other is 6lbs. Together they have plenty of room.

I think so. They advertised 5-16 lbs but my 6 lb must have needed an extra extra small. Thank God she has regained the use of her back legs and is back to running around the house. Ultimately, had it fit, I still may have returned because she looked so darn uncomfortable. (Chihuahua mix)

That would depend upon the size of your chihuahua. We have 3 dogs, the smallest is a 12 pound jackapoo. If he could get through the gate, he would have already. We are very happy with the construction and functionality and purpose of the gate. j

Absolutely. I have it on a 44 pound german shepherd and it's actually ALMOST small for her.

I'm not sure how long your mini doxie is, but my teacup Yorkie's back length is about 6" and there's a lot of room (length) for her. She is tiny (almost 1.5 lb), so her legs are very short too. With a thick blanket on the bottom of the sling to give her a boost (and to make it more cozy), it works fine for her. It should work for your doxie as well (with a blanket) unless she's a lot bigger/heavier than my puppy. I hope this helps.

The only way to make it smaller would be to cut it off at one of the stabilizer rings. I am not sure how effective that would be, but it might work. My dog was still a puppy -- 6 months old when we got it for him. He had never seen one and went right for it. He loves it. He is about 19 1/2 pounds now and about 13 inches high at the shoulders. Good luck. Sounds like your pup is adventuresome! Good luck.

Well, my chihuahuas are pretty small but not the toy or pocket size. And they can not jump it over. I am very pleased with this item!!!

One of the ends will probably be way too big for your chihuahuas little mouth, but the other end will be the perfect size. So it will work :)

That is pretty small, but you can cut and trip this to almost any size dog. I have used it on Dachshunds, Shepard's, and a 20 lbs dog.

All dogs, it has an adjustable strap, it could work on a small dog but youll want to cut the strap or something.

We bought it for our two chihuahua mixes who are 11 and 10 lbs and it works great. We did have to buy a smaller collar because the one that came with it was too big.

I would say 'yes'. Our Chihuahua was about 11 lbs. & we put a towel in the bottom so he wouldn't be down so far. The only thing was my shoulder would get tired after awhile & I'd have to let my husband carry him for awhile. Good luck, I hope this gives you some idea on the size comparison, we really like this product.

It fits my 2 pound Chihuahua on the smallest setting. It also fits my friends 4 1/2 lb mini pin on the smallest setting. It all depends on how your dog is built. My Chihuahua has a large chests and neck, but is very short both in length and in height. My friends mini pin. Is very tall and long, but has a skinny neck and small chest. Excellent harness. The smallest of its kind that I have ever seen. Supper price.
