Step 1: Adjust the collar
Proper Fit: The collar fit should be snug, yet loose enough to allow one finger to fit between the strap and the dogs neck. Fit is important because a loose collar may cause inconsistent performance. Trim any excess strap length. Step 2: Fill the collar
The collar should be off the dog for this step. Be certain the collar is turned OFF. Hold the Lemon Spray can upright and press nozzle firmly into the Refill Port. Hold for 15 seconds and remove. Step 3: Power Up
The collar should be off the dog for this step. Insert battery, positive (+) side out. Set battery to on position per instructions. (See instructional video above). Step 4: Using the collar
Put the collar on your dog, with the spray nozzle facing toward the dogs snout and fasten the strap. Allow your dog to wear the collar for several minutes then recheck the fit. You should notice a reduction in your dogs barking within the first couple of days that he wears the collar. Important: The Bark Control Collar should not be worn for more than 8 hours out of every 24 hour period. What to Expect During Use of the Bark Control Collar Important: Do not leave your dog alone the first few times he wears the Bark Control Collar. Place the Bark Control Collar properly on your dog and wait nearby until he barks. Most dogs will understand very quickly that the Bark Control Collar is disrupting their urge to bark and will relax and stop barking. Because the burst of Lemon Spray from the Bark Control Collar may be surprising or startling at first, some dogs may bark more at the initial correction. On rare occasions, a dog may get into a bark-spray-bark-spray cycle. If this happens, assure your dog with calm, soothing tones. As your dog relaxes, he will understand that if he becomes quiet, he will not receive any more spray bursts. The small minority of dogs that have this reaction should only have it the first time they wear the Bark Control Collar. You should notice a reduction in your dogs barking within the first couple of days that he wears the Bark Control Collar.

You must place the Bark Control Collar on your dog in every situation when you expect him to be quiet. If your dog is not wearing the Bark Control Collar, he may resume barking and his learning would suffer a setback. |
