Fit the Receiver Collar
Important: The proper fi t and placement of your Receiver Collar is important
for effective training. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your
pet’s skin on the underside of his neck.
To assure a proper fi t, please follow these steps:
1. Have your pet standing comfortably (3A).
2. Center the Contact Points underneath your pet’s neck, touching
the skin (3B). If your pet has a long or thick coat, use the enclosed
long Contact Points to reach through the hair. Note: It is sometimes
necessary to trim the hair around the Contact Points to make sure that
contact is consistent.

3. The Receiver Collar should fi t snugly, yet
loose enough to allow one fi nger to fi t
between the strap and your pet’s neck (3C).
4. Allow your pet to wear the collar for several
minutes then recheck the fi t. Check the fi t
again as your pet becomes more comfortable
with the Receiver Collar. If your pet’s neck
is less than 12” around, you will need to
thread the part of the collar which includes
the antenna through the buckle. It will be a
tight fi t.
5. Trim the collar as follows (3D):
a. Mark the desired length of the collar with a
pen. Allow for growth if your pet is young
or grows a thick winter coat.
b. Remove the Receiver Collar from your pet
and cut off the excess. Important: Do not
cut the part of the collar containing the
Antenna.
c. Before placing the Receiver Collar back
onto your pet, seal the edge of the cut collar
by applying a fl ame along the frayed edge.
