What is the actual tried range for these collars? Also do they have enough sting to get the attention of a stubborn 80lb dog?

I have a 120 pound dog and he notices it right away at full power. Range for sure is greater than 500 yards.

Normally its control range is about 500 yards, if there is no other signal disturb it can reach 600 yard. Works great for 20lb ~150 lb dogs.

I have a Pomeranian but she is 18lbs. I only used the shock once and from then on used the vibrate option. She has responded very well. The box is bulky around the neck but they learn quickly what it means and I just say to her I will get your collar and she responds.

I have a 70 lb American Bulldog and the collar is a bit tight on him to the point that I don't like putting it on him. However I have put it on him before and he definatly responds to it. Also the collar I beleive/feel that the clip is cheaply made and I had it on my 40 lb black lab and it broke. I still need to get a different collar so I can continue to use it. Hope this helps.

My mom uses this same collar on her 12 lb shitzhu, the collar adjusts to a pretty small size so I think you could get the right fit with some adjusting. Personally, I've used this collar on three dogs for training now and I've never had one hurt, they figure it out pretty quick and the beeping before the shock is a wonderful warning.

You must mean 9" neck not 9' foot as you indicated! My understanding of this collar design is so they can't back out of the collar if they are frightened. I use it with strong dogs and they pull me all over the place. There are better collars on the market for control if that is you're problem

Hi I don't believe there's any weight limit on that dog trainer collar as very please with that it worked real good with my dog the only one problem I did have was the caller has one of those cheap plastic class that clamped togetherthat broke so I had to put the trainer on a new collar but I got to tell you I was very pleased and all I had to do was tone my dog and he would stop whatever he was doing he did not want to get zapped i'd recommend to get extra batteries

The holes on the collar go almost all the way around, so you can tighten it up as much as you need. My dogs are just under 7 lbs and it will work on them.

Probably, this is the collar for STUBBORN dogs. I have a 60 lb dog with super thick fur and level 3 is strong enough for corrections...it goes to level 8 but there is an option to double the settings so you actually have 16 levels. By day 2 just using the audible sound corrects the dog...this product is amazing. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.

not exactly sure of the range, it was either 400 or 600 feet. And yes, it will work regardless of the dogs position. Love this collar, it has made quite a little lady out of our lab!

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.

I have two 60-70lb dogs. I put tue collar on very tight. If it has bad contact with the skin it won't shock effectively. It only took one shock from the collar to scare them away from my sofa

Positive training doesn't always work. This collar is far from abusive and my GSD is estatic to put it on. I have put it on myself before ever using it on her. The prongs are not sharp and do not dig into the skin. she only wears it for walks or training. When used properly these collars are far from abusive.

Another response based on the other responses regarding the sensitivity. I think this will depend on your dog. The dog we purchased this for is deaf and he's very sensitive. Usually, we only use the paging feature but for correction, rarely have we had to turn it above 20. He weighs about 45-50 lbs. As I mentioned about the collar size in my other response, my other dog is about 55 lbs and she's all muscle. She seems to respond in the 30-40 range for correction and is responsive to the paging as well.

Hello,These are pet immune motion sensors, and a medium sized dog will be fine. 30-40lbs. Thanks.

Please educate yourself and do some research before passing judgement. Collars like this only look worse than they are. They're actually more humane than your typical choke collar. These are not, I repeat, are NOT supposed to hurt your dog. When used properly (i.e. not for all day use, only for training and walking, you're not suppose to yank it, yes, that will hurt your dog) they cause mild discomfort to the dog's neck which in turn, forces them to correct themselves immediately. Any collar can be used against a dog for harm. Not just the "scary-looking" ones.

Dear Customer, thanks for the inquring. Please kindly note that the bark collar is for dogs over 15 pounds. Thanks.

I used them on Invisible Fence collars that are 3/4" wide and they are fine. A little bit wider than the collar but does not seem to bother the dogs or their necks at all. The only thing I had to do was readjust the collar to accommodate the length of the name tag.
