Day 1 - Boundary Awareness

Tone Plus Vibration Training Mode

Perform three training sessions per day, each lasting 10-15 minutes.
Goal:

To have your pet learn that the Boundary Flags and warning beep and vibration from the Receiver Collar define

the new Pet Area.
Setup:

• Program the Static Correction Level on the Receiver Collar to Level 1 Tone Plus Vibration training mode and

place it on your pet’s neck..

• Put a separate non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck ABOVE the Receiver Collar and attach a leash.

Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.

• Have tiny pieces of treats that your pet will find desirable available (hot dogs or lunch meat

work well).

• Have your pet’s favorite play toy available.
Steps:

1. Begin by walking your pet on a leash in the Pet Area. Calmly praise and talk to your pet.
2. Move toward the Boundary Flags (10A). Keep your mood happy.

3. With full control of your pet on a leash, walk to the flags. As your pet enters

the Static Correction Zone, the Receiver Collar will begin to beep and vibrate

(10B). Allow your pet to stay in the Static Correction Zone for up to 2 seconds

then gently help him back into the Pet Area (10C). Immediately praise and offer

your pet a treat as he enters the Pet Area, even if you have helped with the

leash.

4. Repeat this process at the same Boundary Flag until your pet resists going

into the Static Correction Zone.

5. Aim to master 3-4 Boundary Flags per session. Make this FUN! Praise if

your pet quickly retreats or resists going into the Static Correction Zone.
