Once your pet consistently respects the boundary
regardless of distractions or temptations, he is ready for
the next step: unleashed supervision (
11D
). Stay close
by with a leash at hand. Play with your pet for a while
during the first few sessions. If your dog does not try to
cross the boundary, occupy yourself with another task
in the yard, and allow him to freely explore. Continue
watching your pet. If he escapes, remove the collar and
lead him back into the pet area. Start these sessions
at about 15 minutes and gradually work up to an hour
or more.
When your pet proves trustworthy, you can let him out
on his own. Continue to check on him regularly. You
can remove every other boundary flag every 4 days
until all the flags are removed. Save them in case you
move or need to train another pet.
Taking Your Pet Out of the Pet Area
Important:
Remove the receiver collar and leave it at home.
Once your pet learns the boundary, he will be reluctant to cross it for
walks or car rides.
Option 1:
Replace the receiver collar with a regular collar. Put your pet in a car
that is within the pet area and drive him out of the pet area.
Option 2:
Replace the receiver collar with a regular collar and leash. Walk your
pet out of the pet area while giving a command such as “OK” at a
specific place along the boundary (the end of your driveway, sidewalk,
etc.). Always leave the pet area from the same spot in your yard with a
leash and your pet will associate leaving the pet area only on a leash,
only at this spot, and only with a person. You may initially need to
convince your pet to leave the pet area with a treat and lots of praise.
Note:
You may also carry your pet out of the pet area.
Congratulations!
You have now completed the training program. You are both ready to enjoy more freedom. Just make sure to
continue to check the tightness of the receiver collar and remove it when it is not in use.
