Frequently Asked Questions
How old does my pet have
to be before using the
PetSafe
® Deluxe Remote
Spray Trainer?
Your pet should be able to recognize basic obedience commands
such as “Sit” or “Stay”.
The system should only be used with pets who are over 6 months
of age. If your pet is injured or its mobility is otherwise impaired,
contact your veterinarian or professional trainer before use.
Once my pet is trained
and has been obeying my
commands, will he have
to continue to wear the
Receiver Collar? Probably not. You may need to reinforce training with the
Receiver Collar from time to time.
Is the Receiver
Collar waterproof? Yes. When changing the battery, be sure to keep the area free of dirt
and debris.
Can I use the Remote Spray
Trainer on aggressive dogs
or stop my dog from being
aggressive? We do not recommend any of our products to be used on aggressive
dogs. If you are unsure if your dog is aggressive, please consult your
veterinarian or a certified trainer.
Will I get exactly 275 metres
of range with the Remote
Spray Trainer? The range of the Remote Spray Trainer will vary according to
terrain, weather, vegetation, as well as transmission from other radio
devices.
Is the spray harmful? This unit uses an unscented spray that dogs find unpleasant. It
dissipates quickly and is safe for humans and pets.
Does the spray need to hit my
dogs nose? No. The spray is very fine and simply creates a mist in the region of
the snout.
What do I do if my pet’s neck
becomes red and irritated? Discontinue use of the Receiver Collar for a few days. If the condition
persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian. Once the skin returns
to normal, monitor your pets skin condition closely.
How long can I leave the
Receiver Collar on my pet? The Receiver Collar is not designed to be worn constantly. We
recommend the Receiver Collar not to be worn for more than 8
hours out of every 24-hour period.
