Once they are outside, even if you can tract them, they are very vulnerable to getting hit by a car. I think they might be kind of good for part time use on some dogs, but last I heard, they are best suited for dogs over 20 pounds. Maybe someone can submit something about the safety? |
The signals it emits is something to consider. The device itself is only 1.25 oz and attaches to the collar so it should be okay for even small dogs. My Duchess is 7lbs so she should be okay. I would put it on her anytime we left the house.
