Is this collar good for small dogs (6-7 pounds)?

I wouldn't use on a dog that little. I would say 20 lbs is a minimum weight. I have an 18 lb Rat Terrier and I use it for her but it can make her lethargic if she's not feeling her best. I then have to take it off and wait until she's feeling better. It's a shame they don't make them for smaller dogs because I haven't had a tick on any of my dogs in over 20 yrs. that's how good it is. Hope this helps. Nicole

I don't know, I suggest you ask your vet. Our Springer Spaniels are 30-40 lbs each and they work great on them.

I don't know about any particular problem with small dogs, just make sure the Preventic Tick collar you buy is for the proper weight of your dog. If unsure, consult with your pet's vet. My dogs have never had a problem, but they've been mid-size or big. Hope that helps.

Thank you for your question! This collar is lighter and the contact points are closer together to help better fit a small breed.

Hi, This dog fence collar is appropriate for all pets five pounds and up. You can program the PetSafe Deluxe Ultralight Collar to exactly the proper correction level for you pet so it can be used with a pet;with any temperament. Thanks!

It might be a little harsh. My dogs are Labrador Retriever's ~ 80lbs. The collars didn't last but a week or two. I had to send them back. I wouldn't recommend.

You can get very small collars for small dogs. Larger dogs can use the regular size, and they come with short and long prongs depending on the dogs fur depth.

You would not want to use this fence on these dogs. First, the collars are made for 8 lbs and over, second they would not connect properly. There really is not a fence made for a dog 3 - 4 lbs, they all start at 6 lbs and up which would be the petsafe little dog fence (wired).

Yes, it is easily adjusted to fit smaller dogs. I have a pembroke corgi and I easily adjusted this collar to fit her.

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

Absolutely. I have a weimaranier who weighs about 80 pounds and the collar was more then big enough for her.

The collar is too large for this size dog. I don't think they make collars for very small dogs.

Hello,This collar worked great on my dog.However, she weighs around 13 ponds.The collar is bulky on her.I am guessing it would be too heavy for your dog.I hope this helped.Have a great day.

My dog isn't that big.. But if u buy the large size. It's adjustable. I'm sure it.would work. No special collar is needed either

I am not sure. Read the description to ensure the collar size and recommended dog weight/size. Our dogs are very smal (15 lbs). It works for our dogs; collars are a little heavy but work.

I think it would be ok. We bought it for a 10 lb puppy. The collar is bulky but you can change it out.

I would say 8 months is old enough to use this collar. My dog is a golden mix. She weighs 60lbs. I bought a large and it fits her well.

I believe that this collar works best for all dogs over 12 pounds. We have a small mini-dashound and while it will adjust a works fine on her, it is too big and cumbersome for a "small dog".

The collar pictured is a versatile size and should work well for you. The length is long enough for larger dogs and can be cut shorter for smaller dogs
