Fitting the Collar to Your Dog
The collar should be fitted so that the stainless steel contact
points press firmly against the dog’s skin (see diagram 1).
A loose fit will allow the collar to move around on the dog’s neck
and may cause irritation to the skin. If the collar is too loose,
electrical contact will be inconsistent and your corrections will
be inconsistent as well. Allow the dog to get used to the collar
for some time before beginning training.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT leave the collar/receiver on the dog for
more than 8 hours a day. Leaving the collar/receiver on the dog
for extended periods of time can cause skin irritation around the
neck or at the site where the contact points make contact with
the skin.
