Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. Proper fit of the collar
is important. a collar worn for too long, or made too tight on the pet's neck
may cause skin damage. this is called bed sores; it is also called decubitus
ulcers or pressure necrosis.
• avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
• When possible reposition the collar on the pet's neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in
this manual.
• never connect a lead to the electronic collar; it will cause excessive
pressure on the contacts.
• When using a separate collar for a lead, don't put pressure on the
electronic collar.
• Wash the dog's neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a
damp cloth.
• examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• if a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin
has healed.
• if the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.

these steps will help keep your pet safe and comfortable. millions of pets
are comfortable while they wear stainless steel contacts. some pets are
sensitive to contact pressure. You may find 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.
• 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.
• You should not make the collar any tighter than is required for good
contact. a collar that is too tight will increase the risk of pressure necrosis
in the contact area.
• the sportdog® nobark™ 10r collar must be used only on healthy dogs.
We recommend that you take your dog to a veterinarian before using the
collar if he is not in good health.
