1
Select the correct contact point length
for your dog's coat type:
• For dogs with thicker coats, use
the longer contact points.
• For dogs with shorter coats, use
the shorter contact points.
2
If necessary, use the included wrench
to remove the contact points.
3
Twist the contact points into the collar.
4
Tighten with the included wrench, but
do not overtighten.
When you put the collar on the dog, make
sure the contact points are tight against
the neck.
Training Intensities and Methods
You can use several methods to train
your dog. The Pro 70 system provides 6
stimulation intensity levels, which increase
sequentially from 1 to 6.
Continuous stimulation: Applies
stimulation to the dog the entire time
you press the training key, for a
maximum of 8 seconds. Your
stimulations should typically be much
shorter than 8 seconds.
8
Tone: Activates an audible tone instead
of stimulation. A tone can be used as
either a positive or negative training
cue, depending on your training
program.
Choosing the Correct Intensity
Level
1
Set the intensity to the lowest level
(page 9).
2
Select a training key.
3
Observe the dog for a reaction, such
as a head shake, neck movement, or
just a change in expression.
Sometimes dogs will vocalize due to
the surprise of the electrical
stimulation. If the dog vocalizes more
than once, the intensity level is too
high for beginning training.
4
If there is no reaction, increase the
intensity level by one level until the
dog has a slight but recognizable
reaction to the stimulation.
The intensity level that causes a slight but
recognizable reaction is your dog's
baseline level for beginning collar training.
