PRODUCT SAFETY AND HEALTH STATEMENTS

Safety for your dog

Studies conducted by animal health professionals at

Dogtra Company’s training facilities showed no
adverse effects to the cardiovascular or nervous system
of dogs from e-collar stimulation. These studies
involved healthy dogs in a controlled environment.

Dogs should be in good health during any e-collar

training. Dogtra e-collars are not intended for use on
dogs weighing less than 12 pounds or under 6 months
of age.

Skin irritation can occur from prolonged wearing of

the stainless steel contact points on the training collar.
Most dogs will exhibit some type of irritation (pressure
necrosis) from prolonged contact of stainless steel
contact points. This is why it states in your owner’s
manual:

Attention: 

Avoid having the dog wear the collar with the

contact points in the same place for more than two hours
at a time. Leaving the contact points on the same spot for
an extended period 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 spot on the dog’s neck.
