or made too tight on the pet’s neck may cause skin damage. Ranging

bed sores.

2 hours.

electronic collar.
• Wash the dog’s neck area and the contact area of the collar
weekly with a damp cloth.

These steps will help keep your pet safe and comfortable. Some pets
are sensitive to contact pressure. You may fi nd after some time that
your pet is very tolerant of the collar. If so, you may relax some of
these precautions. It is important to continue daily checks of the contact
area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has
fully healed.
The Bark Control Collar must be used only on healthy dogs over
6 months of age. We recommend that you take your dog to a
veterinarian before using the collar if he is not in good health.
