RECEIVER FITTING
Proper Fit
The receiver should be fitted so that the medical grade
stainless steel contact points press firmly against the dog's
skin. You should be able to fit two fingers underneath 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 medical grade
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 due to the sensitivity from the contact
points. If the dog is to wear the receiver for long
periods, occasionally reposition the receiver every
few hours so that the contact points are moved to a
different location on the dog's neck and remove the
receiver after 8 hours of usage. Make sure you check
for skin irritation each time you use the unit.
