How small of a dog can this be used on; weight?

I use the device on a English Bulldog. I think it would work fine on any dog that size or larger. I don't think weight would make a difference.

I use this for a Yorkie, 10lb. It doesn't seem to be too heavy but it would depend on the breed and puppy size.

I honestly wouldn't recommend this product. I had it replaced and it was defective after a day also. It would be too strong for a small dog - the spray is intense! I have a 60lb husky and it always startled him! I hope that helps.

Yes. I think the whole unit would be too big for your dog. The shock the collar gives off may be way too much for dog. My dog is a 42lb greyhound/boxer mix and the shock really gets his attention. 97% of the time the vibration feature is enough to get his attention.I would not use this collar on your small dog.

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".

I bought one for my neighbor's dog. Not sure what kind it is, but it is definitely smaller than 12 pounds. No problems at all.

Hi there. I used it on a small Norfolk terrier, weight 8kg (about 17.6 pounds). It was big and bulky for him around his neck. I would think that it would be far too big to fit under the chin of a tiny 5 pounder.

My dog is 55lb. I wouldn't put it on a dog much smaller than her. I can check later but am not at hm to measure at this time. It's not heavy. By receiver, I'm assuming u are referring to the component the dog wears on it's collar.

I would not use on anything over 10 pounds. We use it for our tea cup chi. It does have brakes but not idea for larger dogs

The small one worked really well on a 30 pound dog. It will be big on a 12 pound dog, not sure how much you can snug it up with the velcro, but you could just let it hang.

The smallest dog I used it on is just under 20 lb. She's a pug-terrier cross. It would work on a dog smaller than that, but the electronic unit that fits through the two holes would be pretty big for dogs that small.

My dog is a small Jack Russell at the time I used this cone he was only 1 year old and weighted about 14 lbs. As this cone is adjustable and attaches to the collar it could fit a smaller dog as well. Hope this is helpful

I am only sure, but I think they have a variety of sizes depending on weight. I have a 50 lb dog and it seems like a lot of spray, so I'm not sure how it would affect a small dog

Our dogs are 20 lbs...you will have to refer to specs...they make for small and large dogs I believe. Dogs love it!

I don't see why you couldn't use it for a small dog! I have a 22 lb. cat that uses it and it is plenty big for him.

I think it would be a bit much for an 8lb dog. I wouldn't use it on anything less 15lbs. Now I'm not s pro on this, but my Westy is around 17lbs and it's just about right.

I have a 50lb australian sheppard mix, I thought it would be too small for him but it works fine, he could use a bigger one so I think it would be fine for a smaller dog.
