Would it work to prevent a small 10 lb. dog from getting on the dining table?

The thing works by responding to vibrations, so if Pup shakes anything it will go off. Perhaps if you use a tablecloth?

I think it would work for that. The cats are nimble and light on their feet, so they don't set it off. A dog should cause a lot more vibration moving around. Just be sure to remember to turn it off before you sit down to the table yourself. It can get annoying.

I had no success with this deterring our cat at all. He just found it interesting. I put it outside (in a protected area) to deter the neighbor's cat from using our yard as his litter box...equally unsuccessfully. Maybe it works better on dogs?

I think it would. My 50 pound dog won't get on my leather couch because of the loud sound.

Yes. I think so. The only problem I see is if the animal is so light and/or light on foot that it does not make a vibration to set off the alarm. I have cats and it is somewhat the problem.

Maybe but it'd be a tight. My 30lb terrier mix fit upon it comfortably, but she never actually used it. She stepped on it, sniffed it, and totally snubbed it. Never stepped on it again. I packed it up that day to send it back.

Yes, and my small dog (10lb Maltese) did not like it. Get a cover/sleeve to keep it clean if you feel enough to buy and give it a try.

It really would depend on the dog. At first my dog was afraid of the noise and she stayed away from the couch but then she figured out how to jump over the mat to get on the couch. The beep that was made definitely startled her. Just an FYI, the product only fit on 1/2 of my couch, not the full couch so you may want to pay attention to the size of the area you want to keep your pets away from.

I would think that could totally work. You could have more controll over the dog that way, keep them in the middle of the seat.

I am sorry to say but probably not. My 9lb shih tzu is almost to big. My 11 lb does ok but they don't stay on the table, they tend to fall off. I'm actually thinking I need to look for a better option. Even with two harnesses the table is not the best idea for larger heavier dogs. My 9 lb guy managed to knock the table over and was choking himself with the harness and I only bent down to pick up my clippers. Scared me to death and now I don't trust the table for anything.

I bought this for our English Bulldog, he's about 60lbs and fits perfectly on the bed. I think he's smaller than most bulldogs, but I'd say it would work if yours is within 10lbs of mine.

It might. The video with the training techniques is helpful if you follow the instruction and training consistently. My 3 year old schnauzer-terrier mix learned quickly not to pull on the leash. It wasn't not effective at teaching him not to jump on people or 'counter-surf' to steal food. We used the techniques from the video and got a shock collar. It only took two zaps to teach him and an occasional buzz of sound to remind him and he rarely jumps! So the collar works for mild-mannered dogs but the technique works for more rambunctious fellow.

It would be a little big, my daughters dog is 10 pounds and it's a little big for her. but it works great

It might work but it could be a bit small for bigger dogs. I used this for little chihuauah puppies. U may need to ancor the bottom to the floor somehow to keep them from getting out. There is a mat that just velcros around the outside edge so they could get out the bottom if its not taped or anchored down somehow.

It should work for both dogs. The metal table should be ok IF it is 1.5" thick or less. The clamp would not fit on any of my tables (which were 2 inches thick). I had to buy a piece of plywood that stuck out a few inches off the table, and clamp the arm to the plywood.

Not to my knowledge! I no longer have mine as I went to a grooming table because this was a bit small for my little guy! Would it be possible to jam something into it to keep it from moving so much? Since I don't have mine now I can't try to see if that would work. I'm so sorry I couldn't be more help. My little guy is about 27 lbs. and doesn't fit on it anymore.

It will be able to fit a pet that is 10lbs or less. It is a little small if you have a pet larger than 10lbs

If they are on the smaller side and don't mind being close, it could. We strolled our 10lb puppy in it and was fine until he reached 15lbs (standard poodle)

Hi Karen. It depends on the size of your dogs. Unless they are very small they will figure it out and jump over it as my 2 cats did. But I put two mats widthwise across the door to my carpeted dining room and the extra width was too much area for them to easily breach.... so it worked for me. Also the mats were very effective to keep the little rascals of the sofa... bed... whatever. I would recommend them. Jan M.

My dog was only 10 pounds and it was perfect for him. I do believe by looking and putting a little pressure on it, I would not use it if my dog weighed more than 25 pounds. Hope this helps.

I don't think so. I used it on two 10lb pups and even at its tightest setting it was a bit large. I hope that helps.
