RECEIVER FITTING
Proper Fit
The receiver should be fitted so that the medical grade stainless steel contact
points press firmly against the dog's skin. You should be able to fit two fingers
underneath the collar strap. The best location is on either side of the dog's
windpipe.
Improper Fit
A loose fit can allow the receiver to move around on the dog's neck. When this
happens, the contact points may rub against the skin and cause irritation. If the
receiver is too loose, the contact will not be consistent and cause the corrections
to be inconsistent. Dogtra uses medical grade stainless steel contact points and
anti-microbial plastic to protect the dog's skin.
Attention!
Leaving the receiver in the same location on the dog's neck for an extended
period of time can cause skin irritation due to the sensitivity from the contact
points. If the dog is to wear the receiver for long periods, occasionally
reposition the receiver every few hours so that the contact points are moved
to a different location on the dog's neck and remove the receiver after 8
hours of usage. Make sure you check for skin irritation each time you use the
unit.
