DOG SAFETY
Proper Use
Dogtra products should be used to train, educate, monitor, or track dogs.
Each dog may have a different tolerance for and reaction to Dogtra products.
Closely observe your dog when determining the right level of stimulation,
collar fit, and other settings of your Dogtra product.
Training Methods
Dogtra products may be used with a variety of training methods that provide
clear and consistent messages to your dog.
Fit and Wear
Proper fit and wear of your Dogtra product is important for the comfort of
your dog as well as the functioning of your product. Dogtra collars should
fit comfortably and not too tightly, so that the collar stays in place and does
not move around your dog's neck. Do not leave a collar on your dog for an
extended time. Although each dog is different, Dogtra recommends that its
collars be used a maximum of 4 to 6 hours at any one time on your dog. A
collar that is used for overly long periods or that fits improperly may cause
skin irritation or sores on your dog's neck. Regularly check the collar's contact
area on your dog's skin. If your dog exhibits skin irritation or sores, stop using
the Dogtra product and consult with a veterinarian.
