Days 9 thru 14 - Unleashed Supervision
Training sessions should start at 10-15 minutes, gradually increasing to
over an hour.
Your pet is ready for this step only when he clearly avoids the entire
Boundary Zone, regardless of any distractions or temptations. During this
step, do not leave your pet unattended.
Goal:
To give your pet free run of the Pet Area off the leash.
Setup:
Adjust the Receiver Collar to the permanent setting appropriate for your
pet.
Steps:
1. Enter the Pet Area with your pet wearing the Receiver Collar.
2. Walk around the yard and play with your pet, staying within the Pet Area at all times.
3. Preoccupy yourself with another task in the yard while watching your pet.
4. Should your pet escape, take the Receiver Collar off and lead him back into the Pet Area.
Days 15 thru 30 - Pet Monitoring
Your pet is ready to run! Check in on your pet at regular intervals.
Note: After you are satisfied your pet’s training is complete, remove every other Boundary Flag every
4 days until all flags are removed. Save Boundary Flags for future use.
Taking Your Pet Out of the Pet Area
Important: Remove the Receiver Collar and leave it in the Pet Area.
Once your pet learns the Boundary Zone, 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 of the Boundary Zone (the end of your driveway, sidewalk, etc.).
Always leave the Pet Area with a leash at this place and your pet will associate
leaving the Pet Area only on a leash, only at this place, and only with a person.
You may initially need to convince your pet to leave the Pet Area with a food
treat and lots of praise.
Note: You may also carry your pet out of the Pet Area.
Congratulations!
You have now
successfully completed
the training program.
