I have a three pound 4 month old maltipoo, would this be too rough? How about too big?

Yes. I think the whole unit would be too big for your dog. The shock the collar gives off may be way too much for dog. My dog is a 42lb greyhound/boxer mix and the shock really gets his attention. 97% of the time the vibration feature is enough to get his attention.I would not use this collar on your small dog.

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 bought it for my small mini pincher, and it has worked great. I've only shocked her twice. It has a vibrate option that works wonders.

My golden pup is 40 lbs and a big chewer but can't even put a dent in it. It should last longer but I guess your dog is real strong.

I have a 3.4lb yorkshire terrier and she hasn't been able to squeeze through. She's not overly adventurous though. If your little guy is pretty adventurous, then I would be worried about him trying to squish through, but in general I think it is fine for our tiny little ones.

I had a 80lb lab in my hound about and it was a good size, not too much room to move around, which you don't want. I also had a piece of plywood cut to place under the pad for extra support, which I would recommend.

I have a "morkie".. He weighs about 12 lbs. Perfect for him. I also have a dog that is a mutt. She weighs about 16 pounds and its a struggle to keep her on it.. I would say go with a little bigger base and a taller arm.

I have a 42lb collie/lab mix in it now. He lays down most of the time and can turn around and all, but I'm sure I could've gone bigger. I actually brought it for a Maltese who's really small, but it was way too big... unless you want it that big, but you could fit 4 little dogs in it no problem. I'm no expert so you may want to physically look at the size in a store. Hope I helped a bit.

It's not rough at all. I have 3 very sensitive dogs who are all white and it does just fine with them. Great leash for regular day to day walking as well add dog training.

Yes, he is. I had to return/refund mine. Manufacturer problems. It started to break the first week. I have a 3.8 lb Maltipoo.

I bought this for my pom as well. She was less than a pound when we bought her, my solution was to put two or three soft blankets around her and made a small nest. She was fine. They grow pretty quickly so you should only have this problem for few months. I do recommend buying a harness when she gets a little larger. A harness is less abrasive than a collar if your planning on using the clip in that's built into the stroller.

It will be a little large, but your puppy should grow into it. Our lab mix is around 40lbs. and I took it up about an inch each side of the neck adjustment to get it as tight as I wanted. The girth adjustments still could be tightened or loosened.

Our puppy is 6lb. It might b little too small. U might want to go up a size.

I would say no to two of anything older then 10 week old puppies. I bought my 1st of this carrier at a TJ Maxx. And then came to Amazon for another 5, that is how much I like the style. My Maltipoo flies commercially with me about 1x a month. The carrier fits under a seat, but the top does get smooshed down. My Maltipoo is almost 10 lbs is 16" inches from the base of his head to his tail. He is 10" tall from ground to top of shoulder blades, around his chest he measures 13" inches. He can stand and turn around and loves it. But in all honestly my Maltipoo loves being in purses and carriers. My other fosters, just slightly larger by say 3lbs and 2" length or height are not so pleased with the carrier. Also I caution the opening is small. My guy likes crates and such so he sneaks right in. For the other doggies I have to unzip the sides and drop them in that way. Hope this helps

It would be a very tight squeeze! My Maltese is 7 lb and it is a good fit for her. I wouldn't recommend it.

I have a 30lb puppy & a 50lb puppy & the large size has worked great for both since they were 8weeks old. If you have an aggressive chewer you might think about a Kong extreme (the black) but unless this is their only toy you should not have a problem.

I have two labs, one is two years old and and about 100lbs and my other one is expected to be larger than him. They are crated while we are at work. Both of them LOVE their kennels! Most times it is difficult to get them out! I would say yes you will be perfectly fine!

The 4" is really short to the ground so I'm sure it will be okay for the puppy. When they get bigger, you might want to upgrade to the taller one so it doesn't strain the neck.

It's a pretty tough fabric. Unless he's actually clawing at it or digging on it it should be fine. It's hard to answer this question except to say I think it will be fine. I have a 90lb rottie that has been using it for over 2 years. She doesn't claw at it or mess with it though. I also put an old comforter I had on it. A dog certainly could destroy this though if it wanted to, but it's not going to happen by accident.
