Important Note:

is not a physical boundary.
It is necessary to contain your dog using a
leash or other means during training.
IMPORTANT REMINDERS:
Please read the following information completely before you
begin training:
s
Proper training of your dog is essential to help ensure the
successful operation of your Radial-Shape Wireless Dog Fence.
s
We recommend that you train your dog for a minimum of 14
consecutive days. Use a calendar to track your dog’s progress.
s
Keep your training sessions short and frequent--approximately 10-15 minutes long, 2-3 times a day.
s
Every dog is unique and may respond differently to the training depending on his/her own temperament
and ability to learn. For this reason, you may need to adjust your training schedule accordingly.
s
It may be necessary to decrease the speed of the training schedule or add more training days if your dog seems
to be under stress. Signs that you dog may be under stress include: Tail between legs, ears pulled back, refusal to
go outside the home and nervous shaking.
s
Before beginning Collar-assisted training, allow your dog to get used to wearing the Havahart
®
Collar with the
battery
removed.
s
Have fun with your dog during the training process and end each session with positive praise and play time
within 11 feet of the fence boundary.
s
Be patient and consistent in your approach.
s
Remove the Havahart
®
Collar after each training session.
s
If you need to take your dog out of the Roaming Area during training, remove the Havahart
®
Collar and
either carry your dog out or take him out in a car.
s
If you are training more than one dog, train each dog separately.
s
It is important that you complete the entire training process and do not skip any phases.
