ensure the following:
• Check the fi t to prevent excessive pressure by being able to insert one
fi nger between the Contact Point and your pet’s skin.
• Your pet must be carefully examined daily for any signs of a rash or sore.
• If a rash or sore is observed, discontinue the use of the Bark Control
Collar for a few days.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
• Your pet’s neck and the Contact Points must be washed weekly with a
wash cloth and mild hand soap, then rinsed thoroughly.
A condition called Pressure Necrosis, which is a devitalization of
the skin due to excessive and prolonged contact against the Contact
Points, may occur if the steps above are not followed.
