Getting Started With Your Dogtra E-fence
Step 1 : Initial Experience With Stimulation On Leash
y
Place the collar/receiver on your leashed dog in a safe area of the yard.
y
Walk your dog into the flagged area where it will feel the vibration followed by
stimulation. When the dog feels the stimulation pull him quickly back to the safe area of
the yard and reinforce his behavior with praise.
y
Repeat this exercise in other locations of the yard.
y
Do not allow your dog to receive more than 4 stimulation's in a 12 hour period.
y
Finish the training session with 5 minutes of play time in the center of the yard.
Step 2 : On Leash training With A Distraction
y
Put the e-fence collar/receiver on your leashed dog and activate the unit. Play in the
safe area of the yard with the dog on leash. After a few minutes, throw a ball or toy
beyond the line of the flagged area.
y
If the dog runs through the flag to get the toy, wait for your dog to respond to
stimulation and reel the him back to you into the safe area . Praise the dog when he
returns to you.
y
Give the dog a few minutes of play time and try the distraction training again. If the dog
continues to run through the flagged area after the ball/toy you may want to consider
increasing the signal field area and or increasing the intensity level.
y
When the dog refuses to run through the flags 10 after the ball/toy consecutive times,
proceed to the next step.
