3. Receiver Fitting
Proper Fit
The receiver should be fitted so that the surgical
stainless steel contact points press firmly against the
dog’s skin. You should be able to fit two fingers under
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 surgical
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. If the dog is to wear the receiver for
long periods, occasionally reposition the receiver
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.
