contact points to make sure that contact is consistent.

point and your dog's neck. the fit should be snug but not constricting.

What tO expect duRiNg use Of the NoBark™ 10R
important: do not leave your dog alone the first few times he receives a correction.
Place the nobark™ 10r properly on your dog and wait nearby until he barks. most dogs will
understand quickly that the nobark™ 10r is disrupting their urge to bark and will relax and stop
barking. because the correction may be surprising or startling at first, some dogs may bark more
at the initial correction.
on rare occasions, a dog may get into a bark-correction-bark-correction cycle. if this happens,
reassure your dog with calm, soothing tones. as your dog relaxes, he will understand that if he
becomes quiet, he will not receive more corrections. of the few dogs that have this reaction, it
usually occurs only the first time they wear the nobark™ 10r.

never shave the dog's neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
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.
