Do you think the unit that delivers the "shock" and vibration would be too big for a seven pound Pomeranian?

These units fail quickly. One failed to recognize the movement of the dog after 2 months and the second just did the same a month after the 1 yr warranty. Do not buy these or any other ones with the same remote in the pic. (Dogwidgets / Epica) These are junk and they don't last. Spend a bit more and get ones that will work.

My dog is only ten pound and it fits perfectly! Great product, I'm very happy with this product!!!

Absolutely Not... In fact one of my dogs is a 10 lb, but very thin, Chihuahua/terrier mix and he responds to the vibration immediately. It's a good vibration, but so harmless. I do not even use the shock mode. I hesitate to use it. I haven't even had to try it on either of my two dogs. My other dog is a Toy Manchester Terrier, 13 lbs and also responds to the vibration mode. I am very happy after purchasing at least 5 other (89.00 dollar and up) units for each of my pets - I have 3 dogs. This is my favorite unit. :)

I bought these for specific times and did not use them often. They were used on a 9 lb and 11 lb dachshund. I only got to use the shock once before one of the collars stopped working. I used the vibrate more often and it made shocking them unnecessary. I cannot return the units as it has been too long but was happy with them while they both worked. Now I use the working unit on the biggest offender.

I have a unit for my 5.5 pound chihuahua...who feels like she needs to bark 24/7. (even at us) I have never used the H1 for her. The vibration is my go to...I've used the L1 only a couple of times. The vibration does a good job at "reminding" her to stop barking. I had everyone in the family that might use it, try it out on themselves so they have an awareness of what they are doing. the L1 is just a small pulse... but it is effective.

I would say yes, I put my 5 pound pomeranian on it and he does just fine--the hardware may be a bit large for him, depending on his collar--you may want to change the connector.

I'll agree with previous responders, usable depending on the collar. I used my smaller Doug's regular collar that I could expand to accomadate the "shock" unit but it worked great! My "more sensitive" dog ended up needing the mild shock but my smaller "tuff" boy is intimidated be just the noise if it goes off on my girl. Only needed them for a couple weeks, then handed it on to my son for his dog, mine are much more obedient & regular training methods of reward & voice are working now for my 2 pups! Good luck!

I'd probably say no because the leash isn't very long. Its good for my cat(6lb) because she isn't too curious to go far but my dog is more on the move so 4ft(roughly) is way too short. If your Pomeranian is rather chill than maybe....after all the leash does has nice give/elasticity.

No, this training device is too large for a ten pound dog. I believe Petsafe makes a version for smaller dogs.

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

I think so.Ours is an 80 pound standard poodle and gives her tons of extra room.She would have been fine with a smaller one.

It's too big for your dogs. I think they have to be over 8 pounds for this. The collar is just huge on my ten pound dachsund. I have an underground system that has a tiny collar and is safe for toy dogs. You might want to look into something like that where you have control of the severity of the shock if they go through the fence. If you only need a small space for such little dogs, it might even be less expensive. Good luck!

Yes. I actually bought mine for use on both me and my Chihuahua. There is some vibration and the noise frightens him, but your dog may be fine with it since he's bigger. It works really well.

Yes. And I love the option of vibrate or shock. It works great for our 2 dogs.

We have a 12 pound Pomeranian and he kept walking out of the extra small size and I was afraid to tighten them anymore. So I don't think the extra small would work for you.

I think it might be a bit too big for a 7lb dog. You should contact Dogtra and ask them if they have smaller collars for smaller dogs.

I would not recommed it for a really big dog but for a med-small dog or cats it works great for us!

I think the "stubborn" dog one would be wayyyyyyyyyyy too powerful for a 7lb dog. I used the regular collars on all my other Labs, but I had this one who was 100lbs & was very stubborn, so that's why I got the beefier one. I think they have one for small breeds though.

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 think they would be okay. My smaller dog is about 42 lbs. and has no difficulty. You could easily limit the use and not keep the collar on all day. The unit is a little bulky, but not real heavy. You can easily cut the collar to length. Since I have only had to use the vibrate function, I cannot speak to the shock, but the control is variable, so your dogs should be fine if they need the extra stimulus.

I'm not familiar with a Viszla but my dog weighs 11 pounds so I'm thinking it would be too small.
