PROPERLY FITTING THE COLLAR
NOTE: Proper collar tightness and
position are very important to insure
safe and consistent collar use.
All
electronic collars need
to
be
very snug around the dog's neck
to work properly. They must be
just tight enough to allow the
"contacts" or electrodes to make
good contact
on
your dog's skin.
If the collar
is
too loose, the
stimulation may not work properly
because good/consistent skin contact
is
not being
achieved. This can directly affect the performance
of
the collar unit and whether or not the dog will receive
the stimulation. Always check for good contact
to
the
skin if
it
appears that your dog
is
not responding to the
stimulation. A loose collar can also result
in
skin
irritations from moving or rubbing too much against
your dog's neck while they are running or training. A
proper fit will help prevent this from occurring.
• Place the collar unit high and tight
on
your dog's
neck with the collar receiver box centered below the
neck. Placing
it
at the wider base
of
the neck can
let
it
travel
up
to the narrower part of the neck while
your dog
is
moving, loosening as it goes.
• It should be tight enough to fit two fingers between
the collar belt and your dog's neck, but not tight
enough
to
restrict your dog's breathing.
