Proper fit of the collar under the dog’s neck is important. A collar worn for too long or made too tight on your dog’s neck may cause skin damage or irritation. This can range from redness to pressure ulcers; commonly known as bed sores. Training collars can cause pressure necrosis if used incorrectly and is often misidentified as burns. 1. Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 8 hours out of every 24 hours and try to reposition the collar on your dog’s neck every 1 to 2 hours if possible. 2.
7. If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed. 8. If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian. These steps will help keep your pet safe and comfortable. Millions of pets are comfortable while they wear stainless steel contacts. Some pets are sensitive to contact pressure and it is important to continue daily checks of the contact area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has fully healed.

TRAINING GUIDE Choosing the Appropriate Length of Contact Points This is a critical step and is often overlooked. If you don’t have the proper length contact points, the collar won’t work correctly.

You may trim the hair if the coat is too thick but never shave completely as this may lead to a rash or infection.
just a couple of inches below the dog’s ears. The collar should be pretty snug on the dog’s neck and it should not dangle. If the collar is too loose, the contact points will not be touching your dog and it will not work. A good indicator that the collar is fit properly is if you can fit two fingers under the collar. Never over tighten as this will put a lot of pressure of the prongs on the neck. A collar that is too tight will increase the risk of pressure necrosis in the contact area.

Keep things simple for your dog in their first sessions. They can’t learn well when there’s too much going on.
your dog will work and be happy as long as you demonstrate that you will not submit to challenges. To be sure, the beta dog will present regular challenges in hopes of gaining the alpha position. If the beta dog wins the challenge, there is a new leader of the pack, so do not give in. Some of the challenges are subtle. Those are the ones you must pay close attention to while training. If you win the small battles, the big fights will be much easier to handle. Dogs see the world in black and white.
and those threats still live in their minds today. In your training program, you must totally condition the responses to the obedience commands to such a degree that your dog trusts you more than its own instincts.

Simple repetition to the tune of around 1,000 repetitions per command will do this nicely.
