I have 4 dogs, all sizes so I don't think number of dogs matters much. I say quiet...very firmly... while I point the box at the offending dog. AFTER I say quiet I then press the button for just a second, that's all. No more than that. I may have repeated,this, in rapid succession, several times during one incident. It was more like a point quiet press chase point quiet press chase over and over as the dog tried to yip quieter and quieter while getting away from the noise. Happened very very quickly and was over. We had two maybe three incidents and then it was quiet point chase, NO PRESS...LOL now an occasional quiet point. NO CHASE NO PRESS... I never held the button more than a second at a time. I think anymore than that would just hurt and cause a reaction rather than the shock stop result that you're trying to achieve.

I'm no expert, everything is just trial and error for me.
