Part of it will depend on the size of your dog. I used this for my cat, who is taller and longer than all three of my other cats. After a week or two, he was able to figure out how to get to his paws. I might suggest adding some of the pet self-stick bandage on the paw. Between the two it should discourage the licking.

14" from where the collar attaches to the cone to the end of the cone. I use it for preventing my weimaraner from biting his rear feet. The 12" did not work for that, as he could "bend" into it due to the long snout. This XXL prevents him from reaching the hind paws and I believe it would be difficult for him to reach his front paws. It is awkwardly big in some ways due to his slight build, but it still allows him to lay around comfortably even in his kennel. Does he love it? No, but he likes it better than one of the old style plastic cones and at least he does not try to get out of it. 14" from where the collar attaches to the cone to the end of the cone.

I did the same thing for my 2 dogs and taped their name above which side cote old their collar so I wouldn't shock the wrong one. Lol a couple things to let you know... The clasps are cheap plastic and break easy. Idk what kind of dogs you have but I have a black lab with a thinner neck and it works good for her. For my Dachshand it doesn't work well because it is too big and even being tightened to the max is still not enough. For my American bulldog with a larger neck it is not big enough and would be tight at first and now he can't wear it at all. Sorry for such a delayed response. I have been so busy. Hope this info helps. I did the same thing for my 2 dogs and taped their name above which side cote old their collar so I wouldn't shock the wrong one. Lol a couple things to let you know...

The collar is adjustable so it should but would only keep it on level one.. scares the poop out of my 30 pound puggle on two.. so be careful..

It will probably fit but my dogs are unaffected by this collar don't waste your money!

It did not fit a smaller collar like I had hopped. I too was using it for a cat. Ended up just going to the local pet supply store and picking one out there.

The collar length is fully adjustable so it should fit around your dog's neck with no problem. You might just want to cut off the excess length. Also, training your dog to respond to the various functions is important so please follow the instructions that come with the collar. Since my dog is already trained for an invisible fence, it didn't take him long to learn to come when I used the "beep" function. Positive reinforcement is so important when working with your dog so take your time, be patient, and always praise your dog when he/she does what you want.

Sorry to hear that! I'm not sure if this product will work.. it keeps them from biting their body well but they might could still scratch their face with their back paw. I'd say it's a coin flip. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Yes no problem. The collar is adjustable. You may not be able ro get it real tight but it works on my small dog about that size.

I would think it would work for most dogs. Just get the correct size. Remember nothing is perfect. If you have a smart dog he may figure out how to get it off but generally I found it a good alternative to the regular E-collar.

Hello jschick,I think this would definitely work on your dog. The prongs on the collar are a decent length, and seem to reach through long fur just fine. However, if the shorter ones just aren't working for you, this actually comes with another set of longer prongs.

The collar should extend past the nose at least an inch or more to ensure dog can't get to the affected area. Hope this helps.

you should have no problem, I have slightly larger dogs, but I only use it to vibrate, not shock. You should try it on yourself to see how the shock works. I have had to change the collar that came with it because my dog ate the first one... once my dog knew what it is, he only needs to see it to cower. I don't keep it on him.

Hello and good day. Although this unit itself may be a bit large on a dog this size, you can cut the collar to remove the excess collar. What is the neck measurement of your pup? I also fully suggest using the comfort adapter. It provides a great deal more comfort, and effectiveness. Small Dog Comfort Adapter fits most Dogtra remote collars I now only put the unit on, and our dog (Min Pin) knows to fly right for the most part.

Since your dog is so young, I would try a regular collar first. My dog was older and already a puller and the collar helped correct that problem.

I wasn't able to use collar -- my dog didn't weigh enough. I would call the Dogtra people and see what they say. Good luck!

Yes it should work. You can barley touch it and it will shock your hand. It also has a low setting that should be perfect for a small dog
