Fit the Deluxe Anti-Bark Collar
Important: The proper fit and placement of your Deluxe Anti-Bark Collar is important for
effective operation. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin on the
underside of his neck.
Please refer to page 2 for important safety information.
To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the battery is in the “OFF” position.
2. Have your dog standing comfortably (A).
3. Centre the Contact Points underneath your dog’s neck,
touching the skin (B).
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points. Never
shave the dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
4. The Deluxe Anti-Bark Collar should fit snugly, yet loose enough
to allow one finger to fit between a Contact Point and your dog’s
neck (C). Allow your dog to wear the collar for several minutes,
then recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your dog becomes
more comfortable with the Deluxe Anti-Bark Collar.
You should not make the collar any more tight than is required for good
contact. A collar that is too tight will increase the risk of pressure necrosis
in the contact area.
5. Trim the collar as follows (D):
a. Mark the desired length of the Deluxe Anti-
Bark Collar with a pen. Allow for growth if
your dog is young or grows a thick
winter coat.
b. Remove the Deluxe Anti-Bark Collar from
your dog and cut off the excess.
c. Before placing the Deluxe Anti-Bark Collar
back onto your dog, seal the edge of the cut
collar by applying a flame along the frayed edge.
