• Failing to follow the important safety information at the 

front of the Operating and Training Guide has caused 

pressure ulcers.  Some descriptions of advanced pressure 

ulcers describe the sores as looking like burns on the 

dog’s neck. Be assured that electronic collars do not use 

enough energy to create electrical burns. The energy in 

an output pulse is only a few thousandths of a Joule; it is 

similar in nature to the static pulse that you may feel when 

getting out of your car.  In some cases, pressure ulcers 

are described as chemical burns.  The battery in your 

Receiver Collar is sealed, in addition, your collar’s housing 

is also sealed.  This redundant sealing makes it virtually 

impossible, without misuse or abuse, for your Receiver 

Collar battery to leak onto your pet’s neck. Please review 

and follow the important safety information on page 2, 

and the instructions in Step 6 under the heading “Fit the 

Receiver Collar” on pages 13 and 14.
