Can I use this for my dog or will it pop?

I believe it will pop, pretty soft inflatable. You need the hard plastic kind.

It does bubble when you first put it down after filling but it has never bothered my dog. I wait about 5 minutes before she gets near it.I love it!,

in my opinion "NO". It inconvenienced my minpin but did not "hobble" her. I finally electrified the fence by going to a feed store and buying a kit of transformer and wires. Did the trick, she only tried it once, got zapped, and now doesn't even think of jumping it. She also spent time chewing up the "jumping" harness so that was a wash. It would only be useful for walking a hard to control dog.

The snap can only be opened if it's a lined with the notch on the opposite side, not while it's on your pet. It can not be opened any other way no matter how hard your dog pulls. It was designed to pivot for ease of movement when they walk.

I'm not sure if it would be a problem for pugs. He would need to use his tongue to help get the food. There may be another style that works better. My corgi does well with it, it was a lifesaver while he was on prednisone, but he is not short nosed.

It is not the popping kind. Also, heating it for popping will degrade a portion of the antioxidants (anthocyanins) that make this stuff so awesome...:)

Yes it will! My dog is very excitable but I have taught her to calm down with this device. However, no device works without you doing something along with it. It is a teaching aid that I use along with treats. What it does, is get your dog's attention!

Well, my dog did unfortunately (she's a beagle, so pretty determined/always hungry by nature)! Sometimes I found it knocked over, and the lid had stayed locked, but there were a few times she managed to tip it and I assume the lock knocked against something, and popped. The lid opened, and chaos followed...depends how persistent the dog is really...if they keep at it, chances are they'll get lucky on occasion.

Nothing as far as we know but just before you use it you should give it a couple of quick shakes. Just a little in the face gets the dogs attention. It doesn't harm them but they don't like it. Usually doesn't take more than a couple of times and they decide that's enough. Just showing them the can the next time and they seem to get the message.

You will. Break your dog's neck if you use just the collar. A harness is the safe and recommended way to use this. Check with your vet or read the cautions.

I think it would be fine. The vibration isn't that strong, and it certainly wouldn't hurt your dog.

Your dog will slip out of this. Look at handicap pets on the internet. I bought the ginger lead but this assists my lab walking up and down stairs. Do not buy this one it sits unused

I just wrote you a long answer and my computer ate it :-( Long story short - if your dog uses it correctly (rolling it around), it should be fine. If he (she?) is big enough to get his jaws around it (it's about the size of a canteloupe), he could definitely chew and crack it. I recommend the Kong Wobbler. It's quieter, more interesting in its movements, is shaped and weighted so that it would be more difficult for your dog to chew it and it's made out of tougher plastic. FWIW.

Since that was not the intended use in my case I can't answer that, however, if your dog has crystals in her urine, this is very effective.

Not sure. I think thete are tabs on each end that you squeeze to remove. It should pop right off.

I would not. It's best to put with your pet's food because it is flake consistency. I sprinkle it over my dogs dry food. If your pet is picky or a free feeder try mixing it in a small amount of wet food and giving it as a treat. Hope this helps.

I think your dog would enjoy this one. Even more if your dog loves water. My 2 puppies love this and even more today because of the snow outside. I would give it a try and if he turns his face away maybe put a little bit of peanut butter under it. Good luck!
