Will collar adjust to very small and fit Bichon's, about 8 LB and 12 LB - 7 month old pups?

The smallest adjustment for this collar is 14 1/2 to 15 inches and it needs to fit snug against their neck.

Yes, use whatever flat collar you want and just slide it on....this is a great product!

I think the collars are supposed to be one-size-fits all. You can adjust it quite a bit. My dog is about 90 lbs, and it just fits him. You cannot adjust the shock intensity on these. The Invisible Fence guy who serviced our fence said you can adjust it on theirs. However, I accidentally shocked myself, and it's not too bad. Enough to be unpleasant and tingle for a minute or two afterward, but not too bad.

The small might not fit them. It has plenty of adjustment. Our terrier is 20+lbs and its in the middle of the adjustments.

Unfortunately this will not fit tiny breeds, the collar was too big for my 8 pound schnoodle. It fits my medium sized Canaan perfectly.

As a matter of fact, I'm using it on a Beagle mix now, and it will fit just fine. There is enough collar that you can cut off the extra.

If your dog is not likely to be growing into a thicker neck, I would think (but can't be certain) that the small, which claims to go up to 12" and is only 3/4" wide might be the better choice. Otherwise you will have a lot of extra loop hanging down (which dog could get caught on). I have only had experience with the 1" wide large & medium collars. Good luck to you and your canine pal!

I purchased the big dog collar which works perfectly, not sure about the little dog size. The big dog collar is adjustable so it will fit a small dog but the device that is attached might be a bit big for a little dog.

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.

Marie: I am really not sure because I did not measure the length because I have a very small dog she is 2yrs.old and only weights no more than 20-30 pounds. If Dog weights this or around this it should fit. By the way I did not have cut off any of the collar!

These collars are the size medium you can buy at Walmart. It will fit my 20 lb pug, 50 lb Airedale, and 80 lb pitbull just fine. My guess is that an 8 lb Chihuahua would bit pushing it a bit, but you MIGHT be able to take the receiver off, tighten the collar completely, then put it back on the inside loop.

Yes,I have a small feisty chihuahua and the module is not too big. I had to trim he collar to make it smaller and secure it with a zip tie. It works fine and with the adjustment buckle it will fit dogs that are a bit bigger.

If you order according to neck size of dog it will be fine. Remember your pup will grow fast and the collar is adjustable. However, if you buy the small or medium now, you may need the large by the time the dog is full grown.

The collars are adjustable, but it is important to give the measurements of your pet's neck so that the text desired can be fitted to the adjusted collar length and not obscured by the buckle. I have ordered two of these and they are wonderful for our pets and give my wife and I peace of mind if they get loose.

I think it will adjust that small but there will be a lot if extra that you would need to cut off. Also, the battery life in this collar is terrible. I have gone through 4 batteries in about 3 months. Mt dog turns the collar by scratching at it so it doesn't even work unless its right even with their throat.

Hi Sandra. Both my dogs are around 18 lbs. The collar is a little big on my female. I am cutting it down to fit. You might have to get a smaller collar, length wise to use it. Just make sure it is the same width.

The size of the links on the collar vary, according to the size of your dog. You can add or remove individual links though to adjust to your specific dog.
