will this work for a 8-10 lb Chihuahua?

Yes, it should. It's a tad bulky where the unit with the prongs is located but it is not heavy. You will probably have to add a couple of notch holes because it will not fit your dogs neck with the existing holes. No big deal. Just drive a nail through with a hammer and make sure the prongs are in contact with your dogs neck. Not too tight. Just enough to know they'll feel the pulse when they bark. Remember not to leave it on over 12 hrs and make sure you shut it off when you remove it so the battery won't wear down. You can control the intensity of the pulse they get when they bark which is helpful depending on how well your pooch responds to the lower levels. If they still bark, pick it up another level and check once more that the collar has good contact with the neck area. It definitely does work.

Since you supply your own cable or leash, this would work fine for dogs of any size, including chihuahuas. The swivel moves very, very freely so even a tiny dog will be able to move about without effort in any direction up to the length of the line you choose to connect.

I bought it for my chihuahua who is 2.50kilos havn't used it a lot the small is still a bit big for him and very stiff. I have been told harnesses can be a hazzard for older people due to possible injury. Hopefully will fit as he grows but I don't think so as he is only going to get to about 3kilos. Sorry not much help to you.

Yes. I have a chihuahua and a pom and they both love theirs. They are both 8 pounds +.

It may be a tight squeeze. I have a 5-6 lbs Chihuahua and it fits pretty well. The width and length probably won't be an issue for your dog, it would be the height of your dog if she doesn't like to lay down.

I don't know exactly but it is very small. I have a 7 lb chihuahua and he fits but I wouldn't buy for a dog larger than 10 lbs.

My chihuahua is on the long side and is 3-1/2 lbs. It is perfect for her and I think it would be for your dog.

Just my opinion... NO. The collar unit is probably to big and heavy for a chihuahua, and the electric shock might be too much (as in dangerous) for such a tiny dog.

Yes, it works very well for my Minpin and Chihuahua. I had to add a little strap from the fastener to reach their double halter. It also works when just one is on it, and my husband walks the other dog. They weigh 8# and 10# each.

Depends on how close your Shih Tzu is to 10lbs. We have a 10 lb Chihuahua and this carrier fits him nicely. If he was much bigger he would not have enough room.

No, this training device is too large for a ten pound dog. I believe Petsafe makes a version for smaller dogs.

Not sure. I have 2 Chihuahuas. One is 10lbs. the other is 5lbs.. I put both of them in there at the same time. I would guess up to about 25-30lbs..

Definitely not a chihuahua! We used it on our 40# dog and it was comfortable for her. Any dog much lighter than that will struggle with this produce.

Yes, my chihuahua is 6.5 pounds and he fits fine. I love this thing and its so cute!

My dog is a Miniature Schnauzer/Chihuahua mix and it is perfect for her. My dog weighs about 9 pounds.

It would probably depend on how small. It was too big for my dad's Chihuahua. It also might be a bit heavy for small dogs.

I don't think so. My nephew has a 10lb dachshund and he handles it with no problem.
