Fit the Receiver Collar
Important: The proper fit and placement of your Receiver 
Collar is important for effective operation. The Contact 
Points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin on 
the underside of his neck. 
To assure a proper fit, please follow  
these steps:
1. Make sure that the Receiver Collar is 
turned off. 
2. Start with your dog standing  
comfortably (3A).
3. Place the Receiver Collar on your dog’s
3A
neck close to the 
ears. Centre the 
Contact Points 
underneath your 
dog’s neck, touching 
the skin (3B).  
Note: It is sometimes
3B
necessary to trim 
the hair around 
the Contact Points 
to make sure that 
contact is consistent. 
Longer probes are 
also available through 
our Customer Care 
Centre. For a listing of 
Customer Care Centre
3C
telephone numbers, visit our website at www.petsafe.net.
4. Check the tightness of the Receiver Collar by inserting one 
finger between the collar and your dog’s neck (3C). The  fit 
should be snug but not constricting.
5. Allow your dog to wear the Receiver Collar for several minutes 
then recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your dog becomes 
more comfortable with the Receiver Collar. Note: If your dog is 
young and you expect him/her to grow, you’ll want to leave excess 
strap to adjust the collar fastening. Replacement straps are available 
through our Customer Care Centre. For a listing of Customer Care 
Centre telephone numbers, visit our website at www.petsafe.net.
