TRAINING GUIDE
Be Patient With Your Pet
Important:
Proper training of your pet is essential to the success of the
PetSafe
®
Wireless Pet Containment System™. Read this section completely
before beginning to train your pet. Remember that the PetSafe
®
Wireless Pet
Containment System™ is not a solid barrier.
• Have fun with your pet throughout the training process. Training should be
fun, fair, fi rm and consistent.
• Train for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Don’t try to do too much too quickly.
More-frequent short sessions are better than less-frequent longer sessions.
• We suggest a minimum of 14 days of training. Depending on your pet and how he learns, the
training could take more or less time.
• If your pet shows signs of stress, slow down the training schedule, add additional days of training,
or increase the amount of play time with your pet in the Pet Area. Common stress signals include:
- Pet pulling on lead toward the house
- Ears tucked
- Tail down
- Body lowered
- Nervous / frantic movement or stiffening of pet’s body
• Your pet must be completely comfortable near the Boundary Flags at the end of every training
session. Spend at least 5 minutes of “play time” at the completion of each session within 3 m (10 ft)
of the Boundary Flags.
• Finish each training session on a positive note with lots of praise and play.
• Remove the Receiver Collar after each training session.
• Be sure to contain your pet by another means during the training period.

To Re-Thread the Collar
Slide Buckle
Ridges
The slide buckle prevents the collar from becoming
loose around your pet’s neck.
The ridges must be facing up; the collar will slip if it is
not properly threaded.
