•
Be consistent. Give your dog a tone or a vibration or stimulation with each misbehaviour.
•
Do not overcorrect your dog. Use as few stimulation as possible to train your dog.
•
Restrict your dog from situations in which he has a history of misbehaving unless you can supervise him
and use the remote training system for applying tone or vibration or stimulation.
•
If you notice one situation in which your dog misbehaves repeatedly, set up this situation as a training
session. This will dramatically increase your chances of success.
•
If your dog has a timid reaction to the tone or vibration or stimulation (especially the first couple of times),
do not be alarmed. Redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate behaviour (i.e. a known command,
such as “Sit”).
•
Never use the remote training system to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behaviour. If your
dog exhibits such behaviour, contact a professional trainer. Aggression in dogs is the result of many
factorsit may be a learned behaviour or it may be brought on as a result of fear. Another factor
contributing to aggression in dogs is social dominance. Every dog is different.
•
Only use this training system on healthy dogs of at least 6 months old.
