Frequently Asked Questions: 

How old does a dog have to be before using the system? 

Your dog should be able to learn basic obedience commands such as “sit” or “stay”. The 
collar-receiver may be too large for dogs under 6Kgs. 
 

Once my dog is trained and has been obeying my commands, will he have to continue to 
wear the collar? 

Probably not but you may need to reinforce training with the collar. 
 

Can I use the dogtrainer rechargeable training collar with more than one dog? 

Yes , you just need to add another collar to the system for a 2

nd

 dog. 

 

How long can I continuously deliver vibration or static shock to my dog? 

Ten seconds. After 10 seconds, the transmitter will time out and should be started again. 
 

Is the collar-receiver waterproof? 

Yes but you have to ensure that its charging hole is sealed by the rubber bung. 
 

Can I use the system on aggressive dogs? 

No. please do not use this system to correct or eliminate any form of aggression or biting 
behavior.    In the event that your dog is showing signs of aggressive behavior then contact a 
professional dog trainer in your vicinity. 
 

Will I get exactly 280m of range with the dogtrainer rechargeable training collar?
