Teaching Your Pet Tone A (Low Tone)

Before using the Remote Trainer to correct your pet, spend 10 to 15 minutes per day for 2 or 3
days helping him create the association of the tone with reward and praise. To accomplish this:

1. Push the Tone A button for 2 consecutive seconds.
2. Release the button and immediately reward your pet with verbal praise, petting, or a small

food reward. Spend 3 to 5 seconds on your rewarding.

3. Wait a few minutes and repeat holding the Tone A button for 2 seconds following

with praise.

Vary the reward to prevent your pet from anticipating a specifi c type. This stage of training is
complete when your pet obviously anticipates a reward when he hears the low tone.

Using Tone B (High Tone)

As soon as your pet begins the earliest sign of misbehaviour, press the Tone B button. For
example, if you want to teach your dog to stay off the couch, press the Tone B button as soon
as he puts one paw on it. Do not wait until he is completely on the couch.

1. Hold the Tone B button for up to 2 seconds at a time, releasing the button as soon as your

pet stops the misbehaviour.

2. If your pet has not stopped the misbehaviour after 2 seconds of correction, release the Tone

B button, then press it again for up to 2 consecutive seconds.

3. Continue this sequence until the misbehaviour has stopped.
4. Once the misbehaviour has stopped, count out 2 seconds and then push the Tone A Button

for 2 consecutive seconds.

5. Reward your pet after pushing the Tone A Button approximately once every 3 to 5 times, to

help your pet maintain the association of the low tone with reward.
