fIT THE COLLAR RECEIVER
ImPORTANT: The proper fit and placement of the Collar Receiver is important for effective
training. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin.
Please see page 3 for Important Safety Information.
T
o ensure a proper fit, follow these steps:
1. With your dog standing (
3A), center the Collar Receiver where
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 fit snugly, yet loose enough to
allow one finger to fit between the strap and your
dog’s neck (
3C).
3. Allow your dog to wear the collar for several
minutes, and then recheck the fit. Check the fit
again as your dog becomes more comfortable
wearing the Collar Receiver.
4. Trim the collar as follows (
3D):
a. Mark the desired length of the collar with a pen.
Allow for growth if your dog is young or grows a
thick winter coat.
b. Remove the Collar Receiver from your dog and
cut off the excess.
ImPORTANT: Do not cut the
part of the collar containing the antenna.
c. Before placing the Collar Receiver back onto your
dog, seal the edge of the cut collar by applying a
flame along the frayed edge
.
• You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points. Never shave the dog’s neck; this may
lead to a rash or infection.
• You should not make the collar any tighter than is required for good contact. A collar that is too tight
will increase the risk of pressure necrosis in the contact area.
