FITTING THE COLLAR ON THE DOG
FITTING THE COLLAR ON THE DOG
The collar should be fitted so that the Surgical
Stainless Steel contact points press firmly against the
dog’s skin. You should be able to fit a finger in
between the contact point and your dog’s skin.
A loose fit can allow the collar to move around on
the dog’s neck. When this happens, the contact points
may rub the skin and cause irritation. If the collar is
too loose, electrical contact will be inconsistent and
your corrections will be inconsistent also.
Dogtra uses Surgical Stainless Steel contact points
and Anti-microbial plastic to protect the dog’s skin.

FITTING THE COLLAR ON THE DOG
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 spot 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 might need to adjust the intensity
level.
NOTE :
The stimulation intensity can be adjusted
even while the stimulation is in use.
