The PetSafe In-Ground Receiver Collar for Stubborn Dogs is the perfect tool any stubborn dog owner can have to help in training their pets. This collar boasts adjustable correction levels and an incredibly durable, waterproof design that makes it a "must-have" for determined canines.

Key Benefits:

• Higher Intensity Correction Levels: This collar offers higher intensities of correction, which will be effective for dogs that are so stubborn or hard to train that they won't respond to the standard levels of static correction.
• Waterproof and Durable: The receiver collar is waterproof, and hence your dog can play in wet conditions, such as rain or a sprinkler, with no potential damage to the unit. This durability will ensure that it can bear rough outdoor play.
• Multiple Levels of Static Correction: This includes several levels of static correction to fit your dog's sensitivity and compliance, along with a tone/vibration option that warns your pet as they come closer to the boundary.
• Adjustable Collar: This will comfortably fit dogs weighing 8 pounds and upwards, with neck sizes between 6-28 inches; thus, it's effective for a wide range of dog breeds and sizes.
• Safety Time-Out Feature: A safety time-out stops correction after 30 seconds to prevent excessive stimulation and secure your pet's safety in case it gets stuck inside the correction zone.
• Compatibility with Other Systems: This receiver collar is compatible with the PetSafe In-Ground Fence systems, except UltraSmart and YardMax. It is flexible in case you want to use an already existing system or even think about upgrading.

Instructions:

Wash the dog's neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a damp cloth.
