Fit the Collar Receiver
Important: The proper fi t and placement of the Collar Receiver is important
for effective training. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your
dog’s skin.
To ensure a proper fi t, follow these steps:
1.
With your dog standing (
3A
), center the Collar Receiver so the Contact
Points are underneath your dog’s neck, touching the skin (
3B
). If your
dog has a long or thick coat, you have two options to ensure consistent
contact: either trim the hair around the Contact Points or switch to the
longer Contact Points included with your system.
2.
The Collar Receiver should fi t snugly, yet loose enough to allow
one fi nger to fi t between the strap and your dog’s neck (
3C
).

3.
Allow your dog to wear the collar for several minutes,
and then recheck the fi t. Check the fi t again as your dog
becomes more comfortable wearing the Collar Receiver.

Care and Cleaning
To ensure the effectiveness of this product and
the comfort and safety of your dog, check the
fi t of his collar frequently. This Guide describes
proper collar fi tting. If you notice that your dog
is experiencing skin irritation, discontinue use of
the collar for a few days. If the condition persists
beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.

To prevent skin irritation from occurring:
• The Collar Receiver should not be worn for more than 8 hours out of every 24-hour
period.
• Your dog’s neck and the Contact Points must be washed weekly with a washcloth and
mild hand soap, then rinsed thoroughly.
