PRODUCT SAFETY
Important: Your dog should be able to wear the collar
comfortably for several hours at a time. The collar is not
designed, however, to be worn continuously. To prevent
irritation caused by rubbing, remove the collar for at least
eight hours out of every 24 hour period. Also, remote
training collars are designed to be worn snug, and a
collar that is worn too loose can contribute to skin
irritation. Take a few moments each day to inspect
the dog’s neck for signs of redness or irritation caused
by such rubbing. If signs of skin irritation appear,
temporarily discontinue use of the Remote Trainer.
Scientific animal safety studies have been designed and
conducted for Tr i - Tronics by veterinarians and physiologists
at a major university. The scientific investigations involved
parameters of electrical stimulation that are similar to
those in your Remote Tr a i n e r. The scientific studies
tested for possible cardiopulmonary and epidermal effects
of Tr i - Tronics electrical stimulation applied to the ventral
surface of the neck of healthy dogs. These studies found
no clinically significant changes in electrocardiograms,
blood pressures, or properties of the skin underlying the
contact points.
Tri-Tronics Remote Trainers have two independent circuits
that are designed to inhibit excessive electrical stimulation.
One is located in the transmitter, the other is in the collar.
Like all other parts of our products, these safety circuits
receive special attention in Tri-Tronics environmental,
reliability, and quality analysis.
