PRODUCT SAFETY AND HEALTH STATEMENTS

Interference with other electronic devices
Dogtra's industry-leading technology
filtering system ensures minimal
interference with other electronic devices
(garage door openers, mobile phones,
etc.). Our digital microprocessor offers
thousands of unique codes to eliminate
frequency match-up with other Dogtra
e-collars. Dogtra recommends consulting
your physician if you are going to use the
e-collar and you have any type of medical
devices.
Inadvertent activation
If the constant button is held down for 12
seconds or more, the unit will automatically
shut down. It reactivates when the button is
released and depressed again.
Proper fit
A loose fit can allow the receiver/collar
to move around on the dog's neck. When
this happens, the contact points may rub
the skin and cause irritation. If the unit
is too loose, the contact points will not
make proper contact and your dog will
not receive consistent stimulation.
Duration your dog can wear the unit
Leaving the receiver/collar in the same
location on the dog's neck for an extended
period of time can cause skin irritation.
If the dog is to wear the e-collar for
long periods, occasionally reposition the
receiver/collar so that the contact points
are moved to a different location on the
dog's neck. Make sure you check for skin
irritation each time you use the unit. If
your dog exhibits signs of skin irritation,
consult with a veterinarian.
Reaction to the stimulation
Every dog has a different tolerance and
reaction to the stimulation. Please look at
your dog's reaction to find just the right
level of stimulation. The stimulation level
may vary depending on the situation
and distractions. Normally a distracted
dog (chasing another dog, squirrel, etc.)
