PetSpy M686 Premium Dog Training Collar, Orange

Not for use with aggressive dogs. Do not use this Product if your dog is aggressive, or if your dog is prone to aggressive behavior. Aggressive dogs can cause severe injury and even death to their owner and others. If you are unsure whether this product is appropriate for your dog, please consult your veterinarian or certified trainer.

Risk of skin damage. Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. A collar worn for too long or made too tight on the pet’s neck may cause skin damage. Ranging from redness to pressure ulcers; this condition is commonly known as bed sores.

• 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.
• 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.

General Tips

This collar has 4 training modes: Sound, Vibration, Static Shock and Light. The static shock function should always be the last stimulation to use. Use a strong vibration stimulation before applying static shock. Follow instructions from User Manual for more details.

• PetSpy Dog Training Collar is not design to be worn constantly. We recommend you to limit collar usage just for active Training Sessions. Always take off the collar when you leave your dog unattended.
• Most dogs will feel uncomfortable when wearing collar for the first time. Don’t use any commands until your dog has gotten used to the collar which will normally take several days.
• Eliminate one unwanted action or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move to quickly with training, your dog may become confused.
• Be consistent in your training. Give your dog the same stimulation for each unwanted action. We suggest you to use Vibration Stimulation before starting the Static Shock Stimulation. If you follow this training method, your dog will learn that Static Shock Stimulation might come after Vibration. Hence, the Vibration Stimulation alone can effectively cure unwanted behavior of your dog.
• Do not over-correct. Use as few stimulation as possible to train your dog.
• Following a predefined scenario in all Training Sessions can dramatically improve your chances of success.
• Should your dog react to the training by hiding or reacting fearfully, redirect his attention to a simple command such as “Speak” or “Sit” to calm him down. Use treats to help your dog understand which commands have been done correctly.

While the Receiver Collar is waterproof, the Remote Transmitter is not and must be kept in a dry place! Water can irreversibly damage the Remote Transmitter!

Maintenance & Storage

• When not used, PetSpy Dog Training System must be kept in a dry place just like any other electronic devices.
• To prevent batteries from damage, charge both the Transmitter and Receiver regularly even when it’s not used. Make sure you do not charge it for longer than 30 minutes.
• Clean the receiver and contact points weekly.
• Check your dog’s neck for irritation weekly.

Troubleshooting

My PetSpy Premium Dog Training Collar is not working?

• Make sure that both the Remote Transmitter and Receiver Collar are fully charged.
• Move or shake the Receiver Collar to make sure that green LED light starts flashing every 4-5 seconds.

Is PetSpy Receiver Collar waterproof? Answer: Yes, the Receiver Collar is fully waterproof.

Once my pet is trained does he have to continue to wear the collar? You might have to reinforce training with the collar from time to time.

How long can I continuously deliver Vibration or Static Shock to my pet?

The max amount of time you can deliver the Vibration or Static Shock to you dog continuously is 10 seconds. The remote transmitter will time out and the Vibration or Static Shock button must be released and pressed again.

While it is fine to use the Vibration for up to 10 seconds, it is highly recommended to limit the continuous Static Shock delivery to no more than 3 seconds (the smaller the dog the shorter it should be).
