While Continuous static and/or Momentary static stimulation may be
unpleasant, it is harmless to your dog. Electronic training devices require
interaction and training from the owner to achieve desired results.
Your dog should be able to learn basic obedience commands such as "Sit"
or "Stay". The system should only be used with dogs over 6 months of age.
The Collar Receiver may be too large for dogs under 3.6 kg. If your pet is
injured or its mobility is otherwise impaired, contact your veterinarian or
professional trainer before use.
Your dog may need to wear the Collar Receiver from time to time for
reinforcement. Also, many hunters keep the Collar Receiver on their dogs
while hunting for maximum control.
Yes. If the rechargeable battery pack ever needs to be replaced, make sure
the o-ring and o-ring groove are free from dirt and debris.
Yes. However, if the Collar Receiver is used in or around salt water, it should
be rinsed with fresh water following each use.
Yes. The SportTrainer® SD-1225E Remote Trainer is expandable to a
maximum of 3 dogs. SportDOG® Add-A-Dog® Collar Receivers must
be purchased. Please refer to the back cover for a list of compatible
Collar Receivers.
We do not recommend any of our products to be used on aggressive dogs.
We recommend you contact your local veterinarian or professional trainer
to determine if your dog might be aggressive.
The range you get with your SportTrainer® SD-1225E Remote Trainer will
vary according to terrain, weather, and vegetation as well as transmission
from other radio devices. To get the maximum amount of range, please
refer to "How the System Works" section of this guide.
The maximum amount of time you can press the Continuous Static
Stimulation Button and deliver static stimulation to your dog continuously
is 10 seconds. The maximum amount of time you can press the Vibration
Button and deliver vibration stimulation continuously is 10 seconds. The
maximum amount of time you can press the Tone
Button and deliver tone stimulation continuously is 10 seconds. After 10
seconds, the stimulation will "time out" and the Remote Transmitter button
needs to be released and then pressed again before additional stimulation
can be delivered.
This condition is due to the Contact Points irritating the skin. Discontinue
use of the Collar Receiver for a few days. If the condition persists beyond 48
hours, see your veterinarian. Once the skin returns to normal, resume use
and monitor the skin condition closely.
Yes. This prevents accidental changes in intensity and encourages an
optimal waterproof seal. The knob will "break in" and be slightly easier to
turn as you use it.
DO NOT attach a lead to the SportTrainer® SD-1225E Collar Receiver. You
may put a separate non-metallic collar on your dog's neck and attach a
lead. Be sure the extra collar does not interfere with the Contact Points.
Yes. You can program your SportTrainer® SD-1225E Remote Trainer to work
with the SD-425E, SD-425CAMO, SD-825E, SD-1825E, or
SD-1825CAMO systems. Because the SD-1225E operates at a different
frequency, it is not backwards compatible with any other SportDOG®
Brand systems.
