Seresto Dog Collar

• Just before use, remove the Seresto collar from the protective bag.
• Unroll the collar and ensure no remnants from the plastic connectors are left inside the collar.
• Insert the end of the collar through the buckle.
• Adjust the collar around your dog's neck.
• To ensure the collar is not too tight or too loose, leave a gap of two fingers between the collar and the dog's neck.
• Pull the excess part of the collar through the loop(s). Cut the excess length, leaving about 1 inch (2 cm) beyond the loops.
• Do not cut the excess length when using it on a growing puppy.
• Check the collar periodically and adjust if needed.
• Make your dog wear the collar continuously for uninterrupted protection and replace it with a new collar every 8 months.
