Would this be suitable for a deaf dog? I would only need vibration.

I think so. If you only need the vibration I think it would be a great option.

No they would not startle the puppy enough. You would perhaps consider "cowbells"

It should. Try only using the vibrate at first. only use the shock if you absolutely must. The shock does scare them but the vibration does too. The vibration is a good warning do it 2 or 3 times before you even think about shocking. my dog is about 8 pounds. I don't have to use the shock hardly ever. the vibration scares him enough

There is not a vibration option. There is a bad sound that you use to help train them. You use the bad sound followed by a small shock. Then they know they better listen because after the bad sound comes something worse. The shock level goes from 1-8. There is also a good sound you can use located on the side of the hand remote. You can use that to let them know their behavior is good. Those are the only options though.

No I don't think it would do the job right. It seems to work only when my dog shakes his head not when he barks. I know the PetSafe ®Deluxe Big Dog Bark Control for $129.99 will work and also PetSafe ®Bark Control with Vibration for $79.99 will work also. I'm ordering the 79.99 next to give it a try.

Yes...i'd make sure to use the vibrate setting though. The shock setting was almost too much for my 50 pound boxer.

You can adjust the levels of "intensity" that the dog feels. The lowest level feels like a vibration.

I would say so. You would just have to turn the transmitter down but the collar itself is big so not sure how big your dog is but that could be a factor.

I don't think it would work for that purpose. Instead of a gentle rocking motion, it would generate a much faster vibration, or buzz.

I use the vibration mode for my 3 lb Chihuahua. Before I would use the electrical shock mode on any pet I would first try it on myself; it can burn if the setting is too high.

Yes you can! I used this on my Chihuahua, and it worked great. There are two levels of vibrations and you control duration. This startles them and stops the behavior. I wouldn't use the shock feature because of the size of dog. This should work for you, good luck!

It offers a beep as a warning and then the shock. No static vibration, but the shock level can be adjusted depending on how stubborn your dog is.

I understand. I would also like a remote shock collar for training. However, this collar is only for barking. It is activated by sound and not by a remote. This would not help you with a stubborn dog.

Set per dog, but I have only had to use the vibration with my dogs. I would think you would only want to start at a low level.

Yes. You can use the vibration only. When I started training mine I would give her a couple vibrations before iI would shock her. But she had to get shocked a couple of times before she understood what to do when it vibrated. Now all I use is the vibration function

mine hasn't got a vibration feature it has a nick feature which I use if dog doesn't respond immediatley

hi, no it is adjustable but not for little pups like that....that is a little early for that! i think maybe 6 month would be good on VIBRATION not SHOCK! and expect it to last about 2 months after that it goes dead 1month warranty
