: When possible reposition the collar on the pet's neck every 1 to 2 hours.

contacts.

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.

These steps will help keep your pet comfortable and safe. 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.
