2.If your pet shows no reaction, repeat the Vibration or Static Stimulation level several times before moving up to the next level.

3.YOUR PET SHOULD NOT VOCALIZE OR PANIC WHEN RECEIVING VIBRATION OR STATIC STIMULATION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE STIMULATION LEVEL IS TOO HIGH AND YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS LEVEL AND REPEAT THE PROCESS.

4.Move up through the Vibration or Static Stimulation levels until your pet reliably responds to Vibration or Static Stimulation.

5.If your pet continues to show no response at Level 15, check the fit of the Receiver Collar. If your pet has long or thick hair, your pet’s hair may need to be trimmed around the Contact Points.

Do not shave the pet’s neck as this may increase the risk of skin irritation. If after completing all of these steps your dog still does not indicate he is feeling the Vibration or Static Stimulation, please contact the Customer Care Center or visit our website at www.petsafe.net.

General Tips

Introducing the Remote Trainer: Introduce your PetSafe® collar when your dog graduates from puppy stage and understands basic obedience commands - usually from 4-6 months old.

Avoiding a “Collar Wise” dog: Try to avoid letting your dog become “collar wise”, obeying only when wearing the PetSafe® collar. Similarly, avoid letting the dog learn to obey only when seeing the Transmitter in your hand. This is easy to prevent (see #2 in the following Training Recommendations section).

Training Sessions & Determining Vibration or Static Stimulation Levels: Keep your training sessions short and watch your dog’s reaction - your pet will tell you what level of Vibration or Static Stimulation is appropriate to use and when to release the button. Please refer to page 12 for additional information for finding the best Vibration or Static Stimulation Level for your pet.

Stopping Unwanted Behavior: When stopping unwanted behavior, it is suggested to use higher levels of Vibration or Static Stimulation - the pet should be convinced that his unacceptable actions (not you) caused the annoying sensation to happen.

Dogs First Learn One Command: Focus on learning one command before moving on to another. When teaching a command like “heel, come, sit or down”, many trainers recommend using low levels of Vibration or Static Stimulation. The dog quickly learns to turn off or completely avoid the unpleasant sensation.

Reinforcing Known Commands: To reinforce commands the dog already knows, it is suggested to use medium Vibration or Static Stimulation Levels. This teaches the dog to respect instructions by always listening and obeying.

Note: Using praise or treats to reward the correct response is great for encouraging the dog, but it is suggested you and your family members always remain the dog’s leader.

Dog Training Recommendations

1.When Training Begins: Training starts the moment you bring your puppy home. While it will not be ready for the PetSafe® products until the dog has matured, you should begin basic training immediately.

2.Remain the Leader: Stop your dog from becoming “collar wise”. An easy solution known as “Collar Conditioning” will help prevent the dog from listening only when wearing the Receiver and disobeying when he is not wearing it. First, fit the Receiver Collar on your dog. Second,
