FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What purpose does V/T on the 

intensity dial serve?

Depending upon which mode you have selected, you will be able to give 

continuous or momentary stimulation to your dog using the numbers on 

the intensity dial, or give vibration or tone with the intensity dial set to V/T 

all with the same button on your Remote Transmitter.

Is the stimulation safe for my dog?

While Continuous or Momentary stimulation may be unpleasant, it is 

harmless to your dog. Electronic training devices require interaction and 

training from the owner to achieve desired results.

How old does a dog have to be 

before using the ProHunter

®

 2525?

Your dog should be able to learn basic obedience commands such as “Sit” 

or “Stay.” The Collar Receiver may be too large for dogs under 8 pounds.

Once my dog is trained and has 

been obeying my commands, will 

my dog have to continue to wear 

the Collar Receiver?

Your dog may need to wear the Collar Receiver from time to time for 

reinforcement. Also, many hunters keep the Collar Receiver on their dog(s) 

while hunting for maximum control.

Is the Collar Receiver waterproof?

Yes. If the rechargeable battery pack ever needs to be replaced, make sure 

the o-ring and o-ring groove are free from dirt and debris to ensure a good 

seal.

Can my Collar Receiver be used 

around salt water?

If the Collar Receiver is used in or around salt water, the Collar Receiver 

should be rinsed with fresh water following each use. 

Can I use the ProHunter 2525 with 

more than one dog?

 

Yes, the ProHunter 2525 is expandable to a maximum of 6 dogs. SportDOG

 

Add-A-Dog

®

 Collar Receivers must be purchased. Please refer to the back 

cover for a list of compatible Collar Receivers.

Can I use the ProHunter 2525 on 

aggressive dogs?

We do not recommend any of our products to be used on aggressive dogs. 

We recommend you contact your local veterinarian or professional trainer 

to determine if your dog might be aggressive.

Will I get exactly two miles of 

range with the ProHunter 2525?

The range you get with your ProHunter 2525 will vary according to terrain, 

weather, vegetation, as well as, transmission from other radio devices. To 

get the maximum amount of range, please refer to the “How the System 

Works” section of this guide.

How long can I continuously 

deliver stimulation to my dog?

The maximum amount of time you can press the Continuous Stimulation 

Button and deliver stimulation to your dog continuously is 10 seconds. After 

10 seconds, the Remote Transmitter will “time-out,” and the Continuous 

Stimulation Button must be released and pressed again.

What do I do if my dog’s neck 

becomes red and irritated?

 

This condition is due to the Contact Points irritating the skin. Discontinue 

use of the Collar Receiver for a few days. If the condition persists beyond 48 

hours, see your veterinarian. Once the skin returns to normal, resume use, 

and monitor the skin condition closely.

The Intensity Dial seems difficult 

to rotate. Is this normal?

Yes. This prevents accidental changes in intensity and encourages an 

optimal waterproof seal. The knob will “break in” and be slightly easier to 

turn as you use it.

Can I attach a leash to the 

ProHunter 2525?

DO NOT attach a leash to the ProHunter 2525. You may put a separate non-

metallic collar on your dog’s neck and attach a leash. Be sure the extra 

collar does not interfere with the Contact Points.

Can I program my ProHunter 2525 

to work with my other SportDOG

Yes. Your ProHunter 2525 will also work with SportHunter

 1825,
