training collar is a very valuable
tool if used correctly. It is extremely important that
you completely understand all the functions of the
collar and how to properly train with it before placing
it on your dog.
• The electrodes on this collar are made with high
grade stainless steel to help prevent any chemical
or allergic reactions with your dog’s skin.
• To prevent neck irritation, the collar should
never be worn for more than 12 hours a day.
Changing the collar location on the dog’s neck
daily will also help prevent irritations. It is
important to keep the collar clean. Clean the
electrodes regularly with a mild anti-bacterial soap.
• If an irritation is found, carefully wash the dog’s neck
with soap and water and then wipe the area with
Hydrogen peroxide. Dry thoroughly and apply an
antibiotic ointment.
