Phase 1
Day 1 - Boundary Awareness
Tone Only Training Mode
Perform three sessions on day 1, each training session lasting 10-15 minutes.
Goal:
To have your pet learn that the Boundary Flags and warning tone from the
Receiver Collar define the new Pet Area.
Setup:
• Program the Static Correction Level on the Receiver Collar to Level 1 Tone Only
training mode.
• Put a separate non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck ABOVE the Receiver Collar
and attach a leash.
Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
• Have tiny pieces of treats that your pet will find desirable available
(hot dogs or lunch meat work well).
• Have your pet’s favorite play toy available.
Steps:
1. Begin by walking your pet on a leash in the Pet Area. Calmly praise and
talk to your pet.
2. Move toward the Boundary Flags (
1A
). Keep your mood happy.
3. With full control of your pet on a leash, walk to the flags. As your pet enters the
Boundary Zone, the Receiver Collar will begin to tone (
1B
). Allow your pet to stay in
the Boundary Zone for up to 2 seconds then gently help him back into the Pet Area
(
1C
). Immediately praise and offer your pet a treat as he enters the Pet Area, even if
you have helped with the leash.
4. Repeat this process at the same Boundary Flag until your pet resists going into
the Boundary Zone.
5. Aim to master 3-4 Boundary Flags per session. Make this FUN! Praise if your pet
quickly retreats or resists going into the Boundary Zone.
