FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is the static stimulation safe for my
dog?
While Continuous or Momentary static 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 this remote trainer?
Age is not as important as your dog’s developmental ability to learn.
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
3.6 kilograms.
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
dogs while hunting for maximum control because they possess a high
drive and experience many distractions while in the field.
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.
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 this remote trainer with
more than one dog?
Yes, your remote trainer is expandable to a maximum of 3 dogs (up
to 6 dogs for SD-1825X-E). SportDOG
®
Add-A-Dog
®
Collar Receivers
must be purchased. Please refer to page 15 for a list of compatible
Collar Receivers.
Can I use this remote trainer 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 if you believe your dog might be aggressive.
Will I get the exact range claimed
with this remote trainer?
The range you get with your remote trainer 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 “How
the System Works” section of this guide.
How long can I continuously deliver
static stimulation to my dog?
The maximum amount of time you can press the Continuous Static
Stimulation Button and deliver static stimulation to your dog
continuously is 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the Remote Transmitter
will “time-out,” and the Continuous Static 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 for over 48 hours, see your veterinary surgeon. Once the skin
returns to normal, resume use and monitor the skin condition closely.
Avoid leaving the collar on your dog for more than 12 hours per day.
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 lead to this remote
trainer?
DO NOT attach a lead to your remote trainer. You may put a separate
non-metallic collar on your dog’s neck and attach a lead. Be sure the
extra collar does not interfere with the Contact Points.
