HOW TO FIT THE CABELA'S® GUN DOG® GS-NB6 BARK COLLAR ON MY DOG

Avoid leaving the collar on your pet for more than 12 hours per day to prevent skin irritation. If skin irritation does occur, stop using the collar and call your vet.

THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN FITTING YOUR DOG'S COLLAR:

  • Proper fit of the collar is important.
  • The collar should not be worn while your dog is playing.
  • Your dog’s collar should never be worn with identification tags or additional collars.

With your dog standing and the collar turned off, center the collar receiver so the contact points are underneath your dog’s neck, touching the skin.
If your dog has long or thick fur, you can trim the hair down (DO NOT shave) or use the longer contact points in your kit.

The collar should fit snugly. You should only be able to get one finger between your dog and the collar strap.

Allow your dog to wear the collar for about 10 minutes, and then recheck the fit. The collar may become looser as he relaxes and may need to be tightened.

You may want to trim any excess collar strap after determining the fit.

  1. Once you have the collar fitted correctly, mark where you want to cut the strap. Be sure not to cut it too short if your dog is still growing.

  2. Remove the collar from your dog and trim the collar strap where marked.

  3. You can use a lighter to melt the ends of the strap to remove any loose strands after trimming.
