To work properly, the correction posts on the MaxDog ™ Computer Collar® unit must
touch your pet’s skin.
1. Position the collar strap high on your pet’s neck with the MaxDog™ Computer
Collar® unit under your pet’s jaw.
2. To avoid having a collar that is too tight on a thick-haired pet, thin some hair away in
order to allow the correction posts to make contact with the skin. Do not shave the pet’s
neck.
3. Tighten the collar strap of the MaxDog ™ Computer Collar® unit appropriately.
Adjust the collar strap so it is snug enough to slide only one finger between a correction
post and your pet’s skin.
4. Adjust the fi t of the MaxDog ™ Computer Collar® unit as necessary as your pet’s
coat, weight, and age change. Your pet’s coat may change from season to season.
5. Allow your pet to become accustomed to its new MaxDog ™ Computer Collar® unit.
The collar must be removed each night during the first month of training. This ensures
proper fit and avoids the possibility of
skin irritation.
6. After training is complete, remove your pet’s MaxDog ™ Computer Collar® unit each
night if possible. This will help prevent irritation. However, if this it not possible, please
check the tightness of the collar each time you feed your pet by removing the collar and
then replacing it back on your pet.
7. The MaxDog ™ Computer Collar® unit is waterproof. If the nylon collar strap
becomes wet, it is recommended that it be removed from your pet and be allowed to air
dry before replacing the collar on your pet’s neck.
