GENERAL TRAINING TIPS
BEFORE TRAINING YOUR DOG WITH THIS PRODUCT:
You will have the most success using this remote trainer if you always remember to teach a command
before trying to reinforce the command with a remote trainer. In addition, always keep the following training
tips in mind:
• Eliminate one misbehaviour or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast with the
training, your dog may become confused.
• Be consistent. Give your dog a tone and/or stimulation with each misbehaviour.
• Do not overcorrect your dog. Use as few stimulations as possible to train your dog.
• Restrict your dog from situations in which he has a history of misbehaving unless you can supervise him
and use the SportTrainer® SD-800E for applying tone or stimulation.
• If you notice one situation in which your dog misbehaves repeatedly, set up this situation as a training
session. This will dramatically increase your chances of success.
• If your dog has a timid reaction to the tone or stimulation (especially the first couple of times), do not be
alarmed. Redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate behaviour (i.e. a known command,
such as “Sit”).
• Never use the SportTrainer® SD-800E to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behaviour. If
your dog exhibits such behaviour, contact a professional trainer. Aggression in dogs is the result of
many factors – it may be a learned behaviour or it may be brought on as a result of fear. Another factor
contributing to aggression in dogs is social dominance. Every dog is different.
