Ensure a Proper Spray Pattern
For the PetSafe
®
Big Dog Spray Bark Control to perform
properly, the nozzle must be positioned correctly and there
must be a clear path from the Spray Nozzle to your dog’s
snout. Follow these steps:
1. Make sure the PetSafe
®
logo on the front of the unit is
upright and the Spray Nozzle is angled out and pointing up
towards the dog’s snout.
2. For long-haired dogs, it may be necessary to trim the neck
hairs along the path of the spray. It is important that the
spray reaches the dog’s snout to be effective.
CAUTION
Do not shave the pet’s neck as this
may increase the risk of skin irritation.
3. For optimal performance the spray bark collar should be
refilled before each use.
