General Tips

• Eliminate one misbehavior or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast with the training,
your pet may become confused.
• Be consistent. Give your pet a tone or stimulation with each misbehavior.
• Do not over-correct your pet. Use as few stimulations as possible to train your pet.
• Unless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your pet from situations in which he has
a history of misbehaving. However, setting up a situation as a training session can dramatically improve your
chances of success.
• If your pet reacts to the training by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate
behavior such as the "Sit" command.
• Never use the Remote Trainer to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behavior. If you are unsure if your
dog is aggressive, please consult your veterinarian or a certifi ed trainer.

Teaching Basic Obedience
The "Sit" Command
1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet's neck ABOVE the Receiver Collar, and attach a 10-foot leash.
Note: Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
2. Hold the leash and the Remote Transmitter in one hand. Keep your other hand free to guide your pet into a
"Sit" position.
3. Press and hold the Stimulation Only Button.
4. Immediately give the "Sit" command while continuing to hold the Stimulation Only Button.
5. Release the Stimulation Only Button as soon as your pet is in position, and praise him.
6. Release your pet from the "Sit" command and play.
7. Repeat Steps 2 through 6.
Note: If your pet breaks the "Sit" command, repeat steps 3 through 6. Keep your pet close to you while teaching the "Sit"
command.
