The “Stay” Command
1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck ABOVE the Receiver Collar, and attach a
3 metre lead.
2. Visibly identify where you want your pet to sit by placing his bed or a large piece of cloth on the
ground.
3. Put your pet on his bed. Hold your lead in one hand and the Remote Transmitter in the other.
4. Staying at approximately 1 metre, walk around the perimeter of the bed. Do not say anything to
your pet.
5. If your pet tries to leave the bed, press and hold the Side Button to send an Audible Tone to
your pet while saying “Stay” and if necessary guide your pet back to his bed.
6. Immediately release the Side Button as soon as your pet returns to his bed, and praise him
enthusiastically.
7. Once your pet has settled, release him and play calmly.
8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 several times.
9. If your pet stays reliably on receiving the Audible Tone and the spoken “Stay” command, then
training is complete. Release your pet and praise him. If not, move on to Step 10.
10. Put your pet on his bed and walk around the perimeter of the bed as before.
11. Wait for your pet to try to leave the bed. Using the Recognition Level for your pet, press and
hold the Upper Button to send an Audible Tone and Stimulation to your pet while saying
“Stay” and if necessary guide your pet back to his bed.
12. Immediately release the Upper Button as soon as your pet returns to his bed, and praise him
enthusiastically.
13. Once your pet has settled, release him and play calmly.
14. Repeat steps 10 to 13 several times.
15. If your pet stays reliably on receiving the Audible Tone and Stimulation with the spoken “Stay”
command, he may now be ready to respond without Stimulation. Take a play break and then go
back and repeat from Step 3 with Audible Tone only.
