Your electric collar's contact points should make contact with your dog's skin. Make
sure they aren't covered by matted fur.
The contact points should apply only light pressure to your dog's neck.
Step Two: Begin training using beep with vibration mode. If you need to use 'safe
shock with beep', start at level 1 and slowly increase until you find a suitable level.
Step Three: Give your dog a command he knows, while simultaneously pressing the
activation button on your dog's e-collar remote. You'll release the stimulation once
your dog follows through!
Remember, this isn't meant to be used as punishment and shouldn't be uncomfort-
able. It is only a sort of physical reinforcer to go along with your audible commands.
Closely monitor your large breed dog during the first day of use to ensure a proper,
working fit.
Removing your dog's electric collar at night or when you can't offer supervision is
recommended. There is always a slight chance the collar can catch and cause a
hazard.
TRAINING SMALL DOGS
What Setting Should You Use with Small Breeds?
Because smaller dogs are much more delicate, you want to stay on a lower setting.
Begin with an audible tone or vibration, moving to one of the lower settings if
necessary. Only move up if your dog doesn't respond to the current setting.Be very
cautious when training small puppies. You never want to frighten your puppy. It's
best to avoid any physical stimulation until your dog reaches at least adolescence
(18-24 months). Limit your electric collar to an audible tone at this stage.
Step One: Size your e-collar appropriately for your smaller dog, ensuring a snug (yet
not too tight) fit. You should be able to fit two fingers between the contact leads
and your dog's skin.
