PRODUCT SAFETY
Training Methods

methods. However, each dog may have a different reaction
to training methods and to Dogtra products. Closely
observe your dog when determining the right training
method to use with your Dogtra product.
Aggressive Dogs
Do not use Dogtra products with aggressive dogs as such
dogs may react adversely and cause injury to people or
other dogs. Seek the assistance of a dog-training specialist
or veterinarian when dealing with aggressive dogs.

attention are necessary when Dogtra products are used by
