Your Collar For Proper Fit - PetPal PA300 Owner's Manual

ADJUSTING & POSITIONING YOUR
Proper collar tightness and position
are very important to insure safety
and correct functioning every time
you use the collar.
• All electronic collars need to fit very
snugly to work properly. They must
be just tight enough to allow the
"prongs" or electrodes to make good
skin contact. In most cases, you should be able to fit
no more than two fingers between the collar belt and
your dog's neck.
• Proper fit of the collar should allow the dog to breath
normally. The collar should never be so tight on the
dog's neck that it restricts the dog's normal breathing
pattern.
• If your collar is too loose, you may get inconsistent
stimulation due to improper prong contact with the
skin. This can directly affect whether or not the dog
will receive a correction at the right times. Always
check for good "prong" contact if it appears that your
dog is not responding to the stimulation.
• A loose collar can also promote skin irritation from
moving or rubbing too much on a dog's neck while
they are running or training. A proper snug fit will
help prevent this from occurring.
• For proper positioning of your collar receiver box, it
should be placed on the front center of the dog's neck.
