We used one of them as a MUST for a beagel we had who likes to escape. It was wonderful for her. She knew that when it beeped it was her warning and never got shocked. Most of the give a warning beep!
There are different shock settings for the collars. You wouldn't set the shock for a 5lbs dog the same as a 50lbs dog. That wouldnt make sense.
When we got the one we have for training I tested it out on me. It wasnt for Brody it was for a Lab we are getting but I was curious. On the lite setting it was like a really good static charge. Didnt hurt but let you know.
My problem with using them on the small dogs is that well...we have Hawks and Brody is only 3lbs, the size of a small bunny. I am afraid the Hawks would take off with his and he would be lunch. We have had them sitting outside watching him before. So when we get the lab and have him trained for the fence Brody want get to use the freedom. He is too small. |
