Would this stop a small adrenalized Pekinese dog from attacking my dog. I don't want to injure or kill the other dog so I'm looking for non-lethal way

I definitely recomend this stun stick to scare off any dog in a non-lethal way. The sound of the electrical discharge is loud enough to scare any dog of any size. Most dogs hate the sound and look of fireworks, this is like having a firework show on your hand.

No, it will not stop a dog from leaving an area. It's only meant to deter a dog from barking but it didn't do that for my German Shepherds or my Pit Bull, unfortunately.

From everything I've read, there is more medicine in the large collar. These collars are supposed to have a version of "time release". The large would release a toxic amount of medicine to smaller dogs. I wouldn't feel safe doing that.

The clip on the can is not very large or sturdy. I would suggest putting the can in maybe a zip pocket on you. Perhaps a pouch they sell to hold mace might work to attach to bike. Anyway, it's great stuff to use for any attacking dog. Sprays far too. If you don't have any on you and a dog looks like it is going to attack, raise your arms over your head and yell at the dog...it should back off.

usually it works very well. Chances could be that the other dogs wanted to play OR saw her as small animal prey. The dog it was originally bought for is a little pitbull mix, about 40 lbs and it really scares him and he stops the minute he sees it. Other dogs seem put off by it too ... certainly worth buying to try it.

Well first need to figure out what they are fighting for... Food, dominance, or just a breed always ready to challenge... ( breed of dog). Long coated dogs need the long prongs attached example german shepards, boxers and beagle hair wear short prongs.( the connection points for correction) Shocking the aggresser dog that starts it needs to know you are correcting and doing it. So start with that dog by itself training some things in yard at a low level 2-3. If dog doesn't listen then a nick correction along with a no. Then when dogs are together if the mean one looks at the other one say no & hit the constant button at a level 4-5 for example. But if they engage in the fight you will have to turn it up to the highest level not guaranteed to stop them. Warning they may act perfect with collar on and then return back when collar is off. Dogs learn the weight of the collar. Just FYI. If they engage in fight can even throw a bucket of wate on them to break it up. This collar will not work for crating together but for living together it may help a lot. My ex had a pit and my pointer did not get along. Pit was an angel with the collar on not fighting going on walks etc! It allows for stimulation correction when we know unwanted behavior is going to happen or is happening when dog is off a ways to be reached at that moment. Good luck

You should have no problem. There are different settings for how strong the shock will be. Be sure that prongs touch their skin, not just sit on their fur. You may need to shave a small area if their fur it thick. Also, there is a distance setting to adjust how close the dog can get to the fence. My dog is a jumper, and the only time she has gotten out since the collar was when I FORGOT to change the battery! She hears the warning beep and stops! Hope this helps!

YES,YES AND YES! I have one if these and had I not had it...my dogs would be dead! Have used it several times and it works. Do not be afraid to use it. Police were called each time my dog was attacked by Pitts. They told me to keep using it. Anyone who walks their dog and doesn't carry protection is going to wish they had if your dog is attacked.

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

This I do not know. It's supposed to simulate hugging and feeling safe. The aggressor may feel differently if he has a distraction, but don't bet on it. Try doggie grenades - empty, clean, dry soda can with pennies in it. When the dog displays bad behavior you shake it and say no firmly. If it continues, up the shaking and yell louder. They can be thrown at a wall, the ground or the dog. Wont hurt any of them. Man's best friend uses these to train.

I forgot to say this has worked very well for my dogs. They were shocked once and now leave it alone. I usually have it off. I don't know about larger animals.

I have this muzzle and use it without attaching to collar. I do believe that if a dog engaged in a "fight" with another dog/animal -- having it attached to the collar would keep it secure. Not attached, I believe it could be easily pulled off if grabbed onto with another animal's teeth etc. What is great about this muzzle is that it does not restrict their panting if hot and they can eat a treat with it on. My dog even grabs on to certain toys and plays with them with this on.

I have never tried defending myself against a pitbull but very sure that if it could easily stop a full sized German Shepard then it could do the same thing to a pitbull. Be reminded that a 300,000 volt zap to the dog's head could cause a fatal injury.

What I have experience with are two cats and a dog is that they are doped up but still terrified so in my Experience its more muscular than a mental blocker so fear or terror is is still there they just can't react as fast to it . Used JULY 4 2014.

Our dog also gets very excited when they see other dogs! The gentle leader hasn't eliminate this urge but it does make it easier to get them into a sit position. I get very nervous when our dog lunges at other dogs and with the gentle leader it can look even worse sometimes. We are trying to train them to sit when another dog is coming and sit after they pass and that has been easier with the gentle leader. In the DVD it says not to use with aggressive dogs so excited dogs seems like a grey area. Sorry this wasn't more helpful, I hope you have success with whichever way you choose.

You can shock the misbehaving dog only. You can not shock both at the same time anyway.

The reason another answer said you couldn't use it on animals is simply because of the noise. I think most pets would be terrified by the snap of the switch and the loud buzz. Peluche is a brave pet, with confidence that his owner won't harm him.
