Indoor Pet Barrier operates on the principle of positive and negative
reinforcement. Your pet will learn to avoid the Barrier Areas you have set after receiving a
Progressive Static Correction (negative reinforcement) and your pet will learn that he is more
comfortable when he avoids the Barrier Areas (positive reinforcement).
In some cases, it may not be necessary to train your pet. You can let your pet wander freely
to determine the new boundaries. Monitor your pet during his first session. Pets learn at
different rates and it may take several times for your pet to successfully understand and honor the
Barrier Areas.
Begin Your Pet’s First Session
Move your pet away from the Barrier Area.
1.
Activate the Receiver Collar by turning the battery door to the ON position. Place the Receiver
2.
Collar around your pet’s neck. Be sure that the Receiver is directly under your pet’s neck.
Allow your pet to wander freely to learn the new boundaries.
3.
Further Training
If your pet is confused or unsure how to avoid the Barrier Areas then you may need to teach your
pet how to do so by following these easy training steps:
Place a second non metallic collar on your pet ABOVE the Receiver Collar and attach a
1.
long leash.
CAUTION
Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points of the
Receiver Collar.
Walk your pet toward the Barrier Area. As soon as you hear the tone or you see that your pet is
2.
receiving a Static Correction, gently pull him away from the Barrier Area and back into the safe zone.
Reward your pet with praise each time he leaves the Barrier Area.
3.
Practice this technique a few times until you feel that your pet is mastering avoidance of the
4.
Barrier Areas.
Be sure to never force or entice your pet to enter the Barrier Areas.
