Seriously, will this stop a charging dog, a PB, Rottie, Dobermann or even a Lab?

Yes, and it probably would stop a truck! Although I haven't tried it on a truck yet.

i'm sure it will, it stopped my "mother in-law" dead in her tracks and was easy for animal control to manage.

It should. The wire is buried and a warning beep when they get close to it. If they ignore the warning and get cloer to the wire it gives a shock until they back off from the wire. It has different settings for the shock strength. We have a medium size dog and it is on the lowest setting. Before we knew what to set it on she got close enough to be zapped and she yelped...so it must have been pretty strong as she NEVER does that.We lowered it immediately! It DID leave a lasting impression on her though. Hope this was of some help.

The collar would work, with proper training.. you have to work with your dogs to make them understand that running off is unacceptable and what the consequences are. Our Doberman is very stubborn but knows that the warning beep function of the collar is the first warning and a disciplinary shock will come next. Usually the beep make him come running to our side.

I don 't think it will work. I put the device about 10 feet away from our neighbor 's dogs and it didn't stop them from barking. I had the device there for about a day and still barking. Save your time and money.

Yes deffinently, but I've never actually tested it. As a club no, but if you're worried about dog attack get a "pet convincer 2" I have tested this on lots of dogs. Can't hurt them but it has scared everyone of them. Just used to stop a big Lab from attacking my mini schnauzer . He had him in his mouth, sprayed him and he ran away. Then he came back but when I sprayed again he ran away before he got to close to attack.

It stopped my herding dog from herding my horses so I assume it would. Every dog is different. You will have to be able to identify when the dog is going to jump the fence and hit the button right when he thinks about it. Hope that helps. Good luck.

It won't harm the animals but just teach them to not go in the vicinity of the fence. I use hot wire to keep livestock in and predators out. It doesn't work on bears that have heavy coats and just smash down the fence or big cats that will jump the fence.

You can't. It's motion detected. Just enter, walk over to it, and turn it off. The dogs won't bite!

yes, this worked with about 85% of the pets. As you must know with pets, there are always a few that seem to completely ignore any deterrent.

I am not sure. We have a yorkie and a lab. I used it one day and the next day it wouldnt work. I dont know if it helps with barking as we got it so our lab wouldnt run in the street. I ended up returning it.

Probably. My dogs don't like sounds of any kind. This device only stops them because they can't figure out where it comes from.

It didn't stop my beagle or basset hound from barking or howling. The collar that sprays citronella towards them did help a lot. I think it's the same manufacturer.

I have two different size dogs. It seem to work better for my dog who weighs about 60lbs my other dog who weighs about 80lbs it wouldn't stop her. But I think also matters how old your dog is. If you start them as a puppy they respond better than being an older dog

Yes & yes. We had a problem with new neighbors and they kept letting their dogs bark between our houses when they tether them outside. After asking nicely, and it turning into a battle, I bought these to deter them from putting their dogs on our side of their yard. No more barking dogs! (They rent and they know I have complained to their landlord, so if they think we have something on tape, & it stops the barking, all the better)! The blinking light light can be seen easily at night to deter anyone from your home/office.

I worry about ALL prong collars falling off, they tend to twist and release themselves. I put a short rope connecting the round ring on the prong collar to another collar (flat buckle or nylon choke) this way If the prong comes loose, the dog will still be connected to the leash. Photo is on the Amazon site for Herm Springer prong collar. Best of luck with your lab! :)

No!!! This harness does not prevent your dog from pulling. Don't waste the money.

I would say it depends on the size & breed of dog. I have Pom's & they run from the sound. A pit bull dog or Rottweiler I am sure it would not turn them away. I also have a stun gun I carry but another good deturant is pepper spray. They use that in Alaska to ward off bears.
