Steps:

Phase 3
Days 5 thru 8 - Distraction Phase
Perform three training sessions per day, each lasting 10 to 15 minutes.
Goal:
To train your pet to stay within the Pet Area with distractions outside of the Pet Area.
Setup:
• Program the Static Correction Level on the Receiver Collar to level 2 or higher depending on the
reaction results from days 2 thru 4.
• 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 available (hot dogs or lunch meat work well).
• Have your pet’s favorite play toy available.
• Create distractions to tempt your pet to enter the Boundary Zone, such as:
-
Have a family member cross from inside the Pet Area to outside of it.
-
Throw a ball or treat outside of the Pet Area.
-
Have a neighbor walk their pet outside of the Pet Area.
• Gradually increase distraction level.
Never coax or call your pet out of the Pet Area.
Steps:
1. With full control of your pet on a leash, have the distraction presented.
2. If your pet does not move toward the distraction, praise and offer a treat.
3. If your pet does react to the distraction, allow him to go into the Boundary Zone.
4. Help your pet back into the Pet Area if he does not turn back after 2 seconds.
5. Treat and praise your pet anytime he comes back into the Pet Area with or without help.
6. Repeat this process with other distractions. Use other family members during this process.
7. If your pet does not respond to the Static Correction, confirm that the Receiver Collar is fitting properly
according to Step 5 on page 14.
8. If the Receiver Collar is fitted properly and if your pet does not respond to the Static Correction,
increase the Static Correction Level by 1.
