For the training collar to work effectively, it must be fitted correctly. This ensures there is sufficient contact area between the collar and your dog’s skin. The collar should fit snug, but not too snug - a good guide it being able to fit two fingers under the collar. Too tight and there may be a risk of skin irritation or general discomfort.
They’re NOT recommended for constant wear. We recommend you only use the collar when supervision is available, and for no longer than 4 hours a day.
Your dog should be at least 6 months old, it’s important they are able to understand basic commands and are able to practice training principals.
No, please do not attach a leash. This can result in pulling the contact points tightly against your dog’s neck, potentially causing intense stimuli and even injuries.
Longer contact points will be required for dogs with lots of har - so that they can reach the dog’s skin. You may have to trim some hair around the neck if this is the case, but never shave (avoid irritation).

It depends on the intensity of the training sessions and how much use the battery gets. It will vary charge to charger however it will be more than sufficient for most daily recommended use.
The collars themselves are fully waterproof. However, immersion for long periods, such a swimming session, are not recommended. The transmitters are also waterproof.
The maximum time the collar will deliver stimuli (vibration or mild shock) is 10 seconds in one go. After 10 seconds the transmitter will time-out. We recommend no more than 3 seconds at a time, and even less for smaller dogs.
Stop using the collar for at least two days. If it persists longer than this time, always consult your vet.
