Is it okay to use large dog collar on small dogs with bigger necks? Or can you use the cat collar??

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

I have the same question. Does the large dog collar have more chemicals or just a larger size?

From everything I've read, there is more medicine in the large collar. These collars are supposed to have a version of "time release". The large would release a toxic amount of medicine to smaller dogs. I wouldn't feel safe doing that.

Seresto® Flea & Tick Collars for Dogs documentation states "For 8 month prevention and treatment of ticks and fleas for large dogs and puppies 7 weeks of age and older and above 18lbs (8kg)" . That sounds like as long as the dogs are at least 18lbs you could split a larger collar. The small states up to 18lbs. https://bayer.naccvp.com/?e=LSdew7K4HnVeeL2EuzyjnfL5DhrACqQQ&m;=product_basic_view&id=1040080

I just tried ours on our "fat" cat (she's 14lb)--it could work...depending on how long your cat is. The collar part wasn't real snug. But the body fit nicely. She seemed to like it all wrapped around her.

I'm guessing that you would normally leash your dog but cats need to be confined. My cat pretends to be choking and dying when I put anything near his neck and refuses to follow or be led. That's just the nature of a cat. Of course, I see no reason why you couldn't use it for a small dog.

I have a chocolate Labrador and he's 90lbs. It fits well on him and has 2 holes to spare. He's a big dog. I don't think it can be used with 2 collars. One is sufficient. The shock device fits snug into a preformed area on the collar. You should only need one collar. Hope this helps.

Don't buy it. A 3 lb dog is too small for this kind of collar. I have a 12 lb bichon and I sometimes think it is hurting her too much so I do not use it any more.

my dog has a 22 inch neck and I ordered him the one that says it adjusts to 23 inches (I think the Large)...it was too small. Luckily a neighbor with the same collar gave us an extra link in order to make it fit...so my only suggestion would be to buy at least 2 inches larger than your dog's neck. You can always remove a link if you have to. Otherwise though, the collar has worked out well and we have had no issues at all with it.

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.

We have about a 30 lb dog and the collar has about 8 inches left over. You should have no problem.

This box has the collar for big dogs, if your dog is not a puppy then yes you can use it. There are other sizes and they cost less.

Our puppy's neck is about the size of an average cat's neck and these e-collars are easily adjustable with its drawstring. It would probably stop a cat from reaching the base of the tail but no guarantee and if your cat is really determined this e-collar probably wouldn't be effective 100% of the time. I would give it a try because if it does work it would be worth every penny. It's so much better than a plastic collar in so many ways.

This collar is very large for such a small dog. You would probably be better off (and the dog's neck would be happier) with their "little dog" collar: http://store.petsafe.net/deluxe-in-ground-little-dog-receiver-collar

Absolutely- all my cats are bigger- mine had to wear an e collar after surgery for two weeks and somehow he still got through!!

We used the collars on our cats who are 8 and 6. We left them on for one month and we did not have any problems. We also used the spray.

I bought a medium sized collar and it IS adjustable. I would imagine the small one will be too. Just double check with the seller directly to be sure.

I bought the 4-line tag and it was about the width of my thumb (maybe 3/4" wide?), fitting on a regular width leather dog collar. The company was very responsive - if I were you I would contact them directly with your question. Based on my purchase, I'd speculate that the 1 or 2 line tags would fit a small cat collar. Good luck!

Yes. The collar is meant to be trimmed down to fit the neck of the dog you intend to use it on. I use the collars on our following 2 dogs: 1) Female Husky, 55 lbs - Lots of hair on neck but have not had an issue making contact with skin. 2) Male Black Lab, 85 lbs. These are not the largest of dogs when compared to a Great Dane, but I believe there is more than enough collar length to accommodate larger breeds. Dogtra does make a collar specifically for smaller breeds and we have one for our Boston Terrier. I hope I have been able to answer your question.

Yes, it works with the same collars. We use this to keep the cat in at night. We have to make sure the dogs' collars are off before we plug it in.
