Frequently Asked Questions

Is the stimulation safe for

my pet?

: While the stimulation is unpleasant, it is harmless to your pet.

Electronic training devices require interaction and training

from the owner to achieve desired results.

How old does a pet

have to be before

using the Elite Pendant

Remote Trainer?

: Your pet should be able to learn basic obedience commands

such as “Sit” or “Stay” and be at least 6 months old before

using the Trainer.

Once my pet is trained

and has been obeying

my commands, will he

have to continue to wear

the Pendant

Receiver?

: Probably not. He may need to wear the Pendant

from time to

time for reinforcement.

Is the Pendant

Receiver

waterproof?

: Yes. Be sure to keep the protective cover on the Micro USB

Port when not charging.

Can I use the PetSafe

®

Elite

Pendant

Remote Trainer

on aggressive pets?

: We do not recommend any of our products to be used on

aggressive pets. We recommend you contact your local

veterinarian or professional trainer to determine if your pet

might be aggressive.

How long can I

continuously deliver

stimulation to my pet?

: The maximum amount of time you can press a Stimulation

Button and deliver stimulation to your pet is 10 seconds.

After 10 seconds, the Handheld Remote will time-out, and the

button must be released for 5 seconds and pressed again.
