I need to stop my 2 females from fighting. Will this work?

Well first need to figure out what they are fighting for... Food, dominance, or just a breed always ready to challenge... ( breed of dog). Long coated dogs need the long prongs attached example german shepards, boxers and beagle hair wear short prongs.( the connection points for correction) Shocking the aggresser dog that starts it needs to know you are correcting and doing it. So start with that dog by itself training some things in yard at a low level 2-3. If dog doesn't listen then a nick correction along with a no. Then when dogs are together if the mean one looks at the other one say no & hit the constant button at a level 4-5 for example. But if they engage in the fight you will have to turn it up to the highest level not guaranteed to stop them. Warning they may act perfect with collar on and then return back when collar is off. Dogs learn the weight of the collar. Just FYI. If they engage in fight can even throw a bucket of wate on them to break it up. This collar will not work for crating together but for living together it may help a lot. My ex had a pit and my pointer did not get along. Pit was an angel with the collar on not fighting going on walks etc! It allows for stimulation correction when we know unwanted behavior is going to happen or is happening when dog is off a ways to be reached at that moment. Good luck

My golden male will chase other smaller dogs. The Dogtra will stop him immediately. Hope it works for you

YES!!!! You will need to get the 2 dog model or if it is cheaper get 2 one dog models. Train the females one at a time (let them know how it feels when you do something wrong). Then when you put on both collars and say your "stop/move" word they will remember what the collar does and no fighting! After awhile you will just have to use the vibrate function and no more shock. AWESOME!!!

No. This is not for aggressive behavior. Females typically do not live well together no matter what you do. If they can not establish dominance, then the fighting will only get worse until one of them gets seriously hurt. I am sorry.

Please do not try and use this on it's highest setting to break up a dog fight. That is just cruel.

If you are attentive and shock them with bad behaviors per manual I believe it is very benefical! My dogs are very in tune to these collars

Yes it will work. Mine will jam so my advice to you is use a few sheets of paper (10) at a time to help mitigate that from happening. If you find it's a problem. Have fun.

Re answer 1 and 2: Both answers are workable. If you are nearby I'll come over and show you how. Otherwise I suggest she get help from a local tekkie.

I've found that my fat cat will push the other one out the way, eat for a bit (the doors take YEARS to respond no joke) and eventually shut her down. By that time the skinny cat has given up, rinse & repeat. I don't recommend this thing, you'll regret it :(

I tried it and my little girl learned to whine and howl instead of barking...you can try it and send back if it doesn't work...mostly for indoors

Yeah, if they don't fight ever. It is harder to clean but once you come up with a system it works.

I train dogs for a living. If any of the dogs in the house has very sensitive personalities it may be to much. If they are not sensitive at all it may not work because they may not be sensitive enough to care about the sound. What every you use has to be more important to stop then why they are barking in the first place. I hope this helps

It might work...I got this to mine because she was eating my plants also was vomiting her food once in a while and now I really haven't seen her do any of it....it won't hurt to try :-)

The fish can see each other but mine could not fight. My two bettas would puff up but thats it. Make sure you put the divider in correctly or they may get to each other.

we used it to help with My cat's aggression with other cats. While we did notice her not "hunting" the other cat in the house as much, we did not notice a marked decrease in aggression towards the other cat when they came across one another. If your cat is acting out simply due to stress, however, I think it may work better. My sister uses this supplement to help her skittish cat who is afraid of strangers and we have noticed improvement in his tendency to hide from strangers.

When they are that young, I don't believe the collar would work. They have so much natural energy for the first year or two, I don't think anything could curb that. Just try to wear her out by playing with her a lot!

Michelle, this is a shock collar, so you would need two if you want to torture both dogs. Please consider finding a good trainer instead, and teach your dogs to work politely on a leash using patience, proper learning theory and a handful of cookies.

yes! read the directions. don't mean to be rude. i had the same problem. there is a knob in the middle you have to turn and you will be able to get them to move and get the tension you want.

WeHave the same issue. Four are fight over this feeder and a few a fighting over the other one in the front of our house. We have had feeders for years and we always see fighting. We thought it was normal.

I would say yes. When my dogs begin fighting I hold the can up (so they can see it) say "stop that" (with an assertive tone) then spray. They stop fast! Their must be a sound they hear that activates them to quiet down. There is also an Oder that is dispensed. My pups stopped acting out the first day with my consistency. Depending on the dogs you have, I would give it a try. It helped me. I swear by the stuff; I purchased three, if I need to use now and then. Usually, though, I show them the can and they stop! Good luck. Only use when they act up though. Don't try intimidating.

I strongly doubt this would stop squirrels or chippies. I did get 2 squirrels caught up in mine and he couldn't get out. So MAYBE they would get frustrated, but I doubt that. They are relentless. I suspect they'd just chew thru it.

Use a pair of pliers and gently twist the knock-outs. They are scored so they'll snap off. The cover should close all the way and latch after you close it.
