To ensure a consistent signal, the dog’s collar must be secured as illustrated above. To do this, make sure the probes are closest to the dog’s chest so that the receiver hangs down at a slight angle in the front.

*It is important to periodically check the size and fit of your pet’s nylon collar. As he grows, the collar’s size will have to be adjusted to provide a secure, comfortable fit.  You want the prongs to be touching the skin of the neck, but still be loose enough to get one finger between one of the prongs and the dog’s skin.
