FIND THE INTENSITY LEVEL THAT IS BEST FOR YOUR DOG
The patpet® 620 and 620b have multiple intensity levels. This allows
you to choose the stimulation that is best for your dog.
NOTE: always start at the lowest level and work your way up.
For training efficiency, it is important to find the right intensity level for
your dog. This is called the recognition level, at which your dog looks
around in curiosity or flicks his ears.
FINDING YOUR DOG’S RECOGNITION LEVEL:
NOTE: every dog is different and you cannot predict where your dog’s
recognition level will be. Watch closely for any slight change in
behavior that demonstrates that your dog is feeling the stimulation.
1. With the collar receiver turned on and properly fitted to your dog, set
the remote transmitter’s intensity dial tot level 1 and press the
continuous stimulation button for 1 to 2 seconds.
2. If your dog shows no reaction to level 1, go to level 2 and repeat the
process.
3.
YOUR DOG SHOULD NOT VOCALIZE OR PANIC WHEN RECEIVING
STIMULATION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE STIMULATION LEVEL IS TOO
HIGH AND YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS LEVEL AND
REPEAT THE PROCESS.
4. Once you find your dog’s recognition level, this is the level you
should use when you begin a training exercise.
5. If you have progressed to level 7 while searching for your dog’s
recognition level and your dog continues to show no response,
check to see if the collar receiver is snug against your dog’s neck.
Then go back to intensity level 1 and repeat the process. If your dog
still does not indicate he is feeling the stimulation, you have three
options: trim the hair beneath the contact points, switch to the
longer contact points included in your system, or change the
stimulation range.
If after completing all of these steps, your dog still does not indicate he
is feeling the stimulation, please contact the customer care center at
760-288-0802.
