Do’s and Don’ts
• The collar should be worn only during periods of nuisance barking and no more than
eight hours per day.
• The collar must be fi lled to maximum capacity before placing it around your dog’s neck.
• Never fi ll the device while your dog is wearing it because it may damage the fi ll-up valve.
• To ensure that your dog does not make the connection between you and the spray collar, don’t let
him see you prepare the device, neither for the fi rst try, nor for subsequent use. Keep your dog
away while you prepare the device as well as when you fi ll it or change the battery. A B C
• It is important that your dog’s hair doesn’t block the spray valve. Try tying a bandanna
(handkerchief) around your dog’s neck, then place the spray collar over. If necessary, you may
also consider trimming a little of the long hair around the dog’s throat for better spray effect.
• Remove all other collars with metallic parts or tags. These could create noise that may needlessly
activate the spraying device.
• Never fasten a leash (lead) to the Anti-Bark Spray Collar.
• Avoid letting your dog wear the device with an empty reservoir. Make sure it is always full.
• Turn OFF the device while not in use.
• The system should only be used with pets who are over 6 months of age. If your pet is injured or
its mobility is otherwise impaired, contact your veterinarian or professional trainer before use.
