®
Stubborn Dog In-Ground Fence
™
system
is NOT a solid barrier. It is designed to act as a deterrent
to remind pets to remain within the established
boundary by use of static correction. It is important that
you reinforce training with your pet on a regular basis.
Since the tolerance level to static correction varies
from pet to pet, Radio Systems Corporation CANNOT
guarantee that the system will, in all cases, keep a pet
within the established boundary. Not all pets can be
trained to avoid crossing the boundary! Therefore, if you
have reason to believe that your pet may pose a danger
to others or harm himself if he is not kept from crossing
the boundary, you should NOT rely solely upon this
system to confine your pet. Radio Systems Corporation
shall NOT be liable for any property damage, economic
loss or any consequential damages sustained as a
result of any animal crossing the boundary.
• This product is not a toy. Keep it away from the reach
of children.
Proper fit of the receiver collar is important. A receiver collar worn
for too long or made too tight on the pet’s neck may cause skin
damage, ranging from redness to pressure ulcers. This condition is
commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the receiver collar on the pet for more than
12 hours per day.
• When possible reposition the receiver collar on the pet’s neck
every 1 to 2 hours.
• Regularly recheck the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow
the instructions in this manual.
• You may need to trim the hair in the area of the contact points.
However, never shave the dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or
infection.
• Never connect a leash to a collar with contact points. It will
cause excessive pressure on the contact points.
• When connecting a leash to a separate collar, do not allow it to
put pressure on the receiver collar.
• Wash the dog’s neck area and the contact points of the collar
weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue using this product until the
skin has healed.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
