General Tips
• Eliminate one misbehaviour 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 negative tone or spray correction with
each misbehaviour.
• Do not over-correct your pet. Use as few sprays 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 behaviour such as the “Sit”
command.
• Pets should be at least 6 months old before using the Remote Spray
Trainer.
• Only let responsible family members use the Remote Spray Trainer. It
is not a toy!
