Product Safety and Health Statement

Proper e-collar use

Dogtra e-collars are intended for the sole purpose of 

behavior modi cation of dogs. They are 

T intended for 

human use or use on other animals. Dogtra Company does 

not assume any liability for the improper use of a Dogtra 

e-collar.

Aggressive dogs

Dogtra highly recommends consulting a dog training 

professional when using an e-collar to correct dogs that are 

aggressive towards other dogs or people. 

Interference with other electronic devices

Dogtra’s industry-leading technology  ltering system 

ensures minimal interference with other electronic devices 

(garage door openers, mobile phones, etc.).  ur digital 

microprocessor offers thousands of unique codes to 

eliminate frequency match-up with other Dogtra e-collars. 

Dogtra recommends consulting your physician if you are 

going to use the e-collar and you have any type of medical 

devices.

Inadvertent activation

If the constant button is held down for 12 seconds or more, 

the unit will automatically shut down. It reactivates when 

the button is released and depressed again.

Proper Fit

A loose  t can allow the receiver collar to move around on 

the dog’s neck. When this happens, the contact points may 

rub the skin and cause irritation. If the unit is too loose, the 

contact points will not make proper contact and your dog 

will not receive consistent stimulation. 

Duration your dog can wear the unit

Leaving the receiver collar in the same location on the 

dog’s neck 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 receiver collar so that the contact 

points are moved to a different location on the dog’s neck. 

Make sure you check for skin irritation each time you use 

the unit. If your dog exhibits signs of skin irritation, consult 

with a veterinarian. 

Reaction to the stimulation

Every dog has a different tolerance and reaction to the 

stimulation. Please look at your dog’s reaction to  nd  ust 

the right level of stimulation. The stimulation level may 

vary depending on the situation and distractions.  ormally 

a distracted dog (chasing another dog, squirrel, etc.) will 

require a higher level of stimulation compared to when 

there is no distraction.

Training Methods

E-collars can be used with many different methods. If you 

have any concerns in the training methods provided by 

Dogtra, consult with a dog training professional.
