FITTING THE COLLAR ON THE DOG

IMPROPER FIT

A loose fit can allow the collar to move

around on the dog’s neck. When this happens,
the contact points may rub against the skin and
cause irritation. If the collar is too loose,
electrical contact will be inconsistent causing
your corrections to be inconsistent.

Dogtra uses surgical stainless steel contact

points and anti-microbial plastic to protect the
dog’s skin.

ATTENTION!

Avoid having the dog wear the collar for

more than 8 hours out of every 24-hour period.
Leaving the points on the same spot for
extended periods of time can cause skin
irritation. If the dog is to wear the e-collar for
long periods, occasionally reposition the collar
so that the contact points are moved to a
different location on the dog’s neck.

INTENSITY SELECTION

The has

a

Rheostat Intensity Dial on the top of the
transmitter (0 is the lowest and 127 is the
highest). Remember that you will need to adjust
the setting (upward or downward) depending on
your dog’s temperament and threshold for
stimulation. Also, as the dog’s attitude changes,
especially during times of increased excitement
or distraction, you may need to adjust the
intensity level.

NOTE : The stimulation intensity can be

adjusted even while the stimulation
is in use.
