BOUSNIC Contact Points and Silicone Points for Dog Training Collar, for 650 collar

These dog training collar contact points are the metal points and silicone caps that fit the BOUSNIC 650 collar. Use the silicone-covered points alone on dogs with short or thin hair, and add the thin spring sheet for dogs with long or thick hair. The points weigh 10 g (0.4 oz) in total and come in black and silver.

Metal points, silicone caps and the thin spring sheet

Each contact point is a metal post that carries a silicone cap, and the spring sheet is a thin metal strip that sits with the points. The silicone caps are the part that touches a short-haired dog's skin, while the spring sheet is added for a coat that is long or thick.

Dogs with short or thin hair wear the silicone-covered points on their own. Dogs with long or thick hair wear the points and the spring sheet together, so both parts go on the collar at the same time.

On a small dog where the shock mode is not needed, the collar can be worn without the contact points at all.

Fitting the points and caps on the collar

The test lamp helps you tighten the metal points. Then press each silicone cap on hard until the cap sits flush against the top of the point with no gap.

When adjusting the spring sheet, loosen the metal points a little and bend the top part gently; the thin sheet may break if it is handled another way.

Set the collar so the points press firmly against the dog's skin, because firm contact is what the shock function needs to work effectively. When the collar is properly fitted, one finger should fit between the receiver collar and the dog's neck.

Does my dog's coat suit these points?

For a dog with short or thin hair, the silicone-covered points alone are the stated choice. When a dog has long or thick hair, both the contact spring sheet and the contact points are used at the same time.

On a small dog, the collar can be used without any contact points if the shock mode is not needed.

Check the fit with a finger between the receiver collar and the neck; if the points do not press firmly against the skin, the shock function will not work effectively.
