Introducing an Inexperienced Dog to the Beeper
The Beeper is loud. It can startle or alarm an inexperienced dog at first. If your dog isn’t used to beeper collars, begin hunting
with the Beeper set on low volume instead of high volume. You can also muffle the sound by placing duct tape over the horn, or a
cotton ball in the horn. Another technique for getting a dog used to beeper collars is to hang a beeper at least 20 yards away from
the dog’s kennel, and let the dog listen to it beeping for several hours before you put it on to hunt.
Beeper Care and Maintenance
Remove the Beeper from the collar strap for thorough cleaning.
You can wipe the Beeper with a damp cloth and mild detergent
if desired.
• Do not use any solvents as they can cause damage.
• Do not submerge the Beeper when cleaning it.
Dirt and debris in the Beeper horn can cause the sound to change.
• To clean debris from the Beeper horn, use only a moistened
cotton swab.
• Do not use any sharp or pointed objects or damage to the horn
may result.
