SAFETY INFORMATION
Aggressive Dogs
DogMaster Trainers highly recommends consulting a dog trainer when using an E collar on aggressive dogs.
Do no use this product to correct dogs that are aggressive towards other dogs or people. If you are unsure
if this product is appropriate for your dog, please consult your veterinarian or certified trainer.
Proper Fitting of the Collar
It is important to have a tight-fitting collar. A loose-fitting collar can move around on a dog's neck. The dog
may not feel the stimulation when the collar is loose and the contact probes could rub on the dog's skin
and cause irritation.
Duration of Wear
Do not allow the dog to wear the collar for more than 10 hours a day. Leaving the collar on the dog in same
spot for an extended period can cause skin irritation. If the dog is wearing the collar for long periods,
occasionally move the contact area a little bit so that the probes are not staying in the same spot all the
time.
Finding the Best Stimulation Level
Every dog reacts to the stimulation differently. It is important to find out the right level of stimulation for
your dog. Always start from the lowest setting (1) and increase slowly until you can see that the dog reacts
to the stimulation.
