Pathfinder
by Dogtra
GPS Tracker for dog
Please read this manual thoroughly before operating the Dogtra Pathfinder.
Caution
1.The Dogtra Pathfinder is intended for the sole purpose of tracking and training dogs. The
Pathfinder is NOT intended for human use or use on other animals. Dogtra does not
assume any liability for the improper use of the Dogtra Pathfinder.
2. The Dogtra Pathfinder is meant for use in open outdoor areas. Operating the Pathfinder
near tall buildings and other steel structures will reduce the range of the GPS.
3.Pay close attention to the signal range when operating the Pathfinder across long
distances and low line-of-sight view.
2. Dogtra highly recommends consulting a dog training professional when using the
Pathfinder e-collar to correct dogs that are aggressive towards other dogs or people.
3. The Dogtra Pathfinder connects to your phone using Bluetooth. Dogtra’s industry leading
technology filtering system ensures minimal interference with other electronic devices. Out
digital microprocessor offers thousands of unique codes to eliminate frequency match-up
with other Dogtra e-collars. Dogtra recommends consulting your physician if you are
going to use the e-collar and you have any type of medical devices.
4. If the constant button is held down for 12 seconds or more, the unit will automatically
shut down. It reactivates when the button is released and depressed again.
5. A loose fit can allow the receiver/collar to move around on the dog’s neck. When this
happens, the contact points may rub the skin and cause irritation. If the unit is too loose,
the contact points will not make proper contact and your dog will not receive consistent
stimulation.
6. Leaving the receiver/collar in the same location on the dog’s neck for an extended period
of time can cause skin irritation. If the dog is to wear the e-collar for long periods,
occasionally reposition the receiver/collar so that the contact points are moved to a
different location on the dog’s neck. Make sure you check for skin irritation each time you
use the unit. If your dog exhibits signs of skin irritation, consult with a veterinarian.
7. Every dog has a different tolerance and reaction to the stimulation. Please look at your dog’s
reaction to find just the right level of stimulation. The stimulation level may vary depending on
the situation and distractions. Normally a distracted dog (chasing another dog, squirrel, etc.) will
require a higher level of stimulation compared to when there is no distraction.
8. E-collars can be used with many different methods. If you have any concerns in the training
methods provided by Dogtra, consult with a dog training professional.
