AND SYMBOLS USED

WARNING
• Do not use this product if your dog is prone to aggressive behaviour. Aggressive dogs can cause severe injury and even death to
their owner and others. If you are unsure whether this product is appropriate for your dog, please consult your veterinarian or a
certified trainer.
• This device contains Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries; never incinerate, puncture, deform, short-circuit, or charge with an
inappropriate charger. Fire, explosion, property damage, or bodily harm can occur if this warning is not followed.

It is vitally important that you and your dog remain safe while learning during on-leash/lead training. Your dog should be on a strong
leash/lead, long enough for him to attempt to chase an object, but short enough for him not to reach a road or other hazard. You must
be physically strong enough to restrain your dog if he tries to chase something.
This product is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children.
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards.
Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

• Proper fit of the collar is important. A collar worn for too
long or made too tight on the dog’s neck may cause skin
damage ranging from redness to pressure ulcers. This
condition is commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the collar on a dog for more than 12 hours
per day.
• When possible, reposition the collar on the dog’s neck every
1 to 2 hours.
• Regularly recheck the fit to prevent excessive pressure;
follow the instructions in this guide.
• 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/lead to a collar with Contact Points.
It will cause excessive pressure on the Contact Points.
• When connecting a leash/lead to a separate collar, do not
allow it to put pressure on the Collar Receiver.
• 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.
• For additional information on bed sores and pressure
necrosis, please visit sportdog.com.
• This product is only for use with healthy dogs. If you’re
not certain that your dog is in good health, we recommend
that you take your dog to a veterinarian before using this
product.
