MY DOG DOESNT RESPOND TO THE SIT MEANS SIT COLLAR
Before troubleshooting, remove the collar from your dog.
Ensure that both the remote transmitter and collar receiver are fully charged, and the collar is powered on.
- If fully charged and powered on, the collar receiver should blink green every 5 seconds, and the remote transmitter’s Indicator Light will illuminate green when a button is pressed.
- For more information on charging, visit HOW TO CHARGE THE SIT MEANS SIT REMOTE TRAINER.
Ensure that both contact points on your collar receiver are hand tight.
- Ensure that the collar is fit properly on your dog. Visit HOW TO FIT THE SPORTDOG® REMOTE TRAINER COLLAR TO YOUR DOG for more information.
Verify that your remote transmitter and collar receiver are paired.
- Turn your dial to V/T.
- Press and hold one of the buttons on the front of your remote. Your collar will vibrate or tone depending on the mode set.
- If you do not feel a vibration or tone, please pair your remote and collar. For more information on pairing, visit HOW TO PAIR YOUR SIT MEANS SIT REMOTE TRANSMITTER WITH A SINGLE COLLAR, or if you have more than one dog visit HOW TO ADD ANOTHER COLLAR RECEIVER TO YOUR SIT MEANS SIT REMOTE TRANSMITTER.
Ensure the collar is delivering a static stimulation.
- Turn your Intensity Dial to 7.
- Place the test light tool’s two wires on the collar’s contact points.
- Then, press and hold the upper button on the front of the remote. An amber-colored light will glow in the center of the Test Light Tool.
If you have completed the previous troubleshooting and your dog is still not responding to the correction, you may need to increase the stimulation range on the collar. You can find those instructions here on HOW TO CHANGE THE STIMULATION RANGE ON YOUR SIT MEANS SIT COLLAR.
