You should
never
:
Point the Pet Convincer Plus towards the
face, eyes, or rectum of any animal.
Use the Pet Convincer Plus for any purpose
other than those specified in these user guide
instructions.
Testing the Device:
This should be done away from your pet.
Point the device away from your face and pull the
trigger in a quick, short burst.
Once you are comfortable with the trigger
mechanism, you may want to try the device on your
hand at the minimum distance of 8 inches.
Each Cartridge will emit 15-30 bursts, depending on
how long you depress the trigger. Short (~ one
second) air bursts (blasts) are recommended to
control your pet’s behavior with the Pet Convincer
Plus.
Why it Works:
The Pet Convincer Plus interrupts and discourages
unwanted behavior.
This device is so effective that many times only a
single application is needed to “cure” a problem
behavior.
Using the device correctly is critical for success, so
please read the following instructions carefully
before using the Pet Convincer Plus with your pet.
Using the Device:
Now that you are familiar with the function and feel
of the Pet Convincer Plus, you are ready to use it to
interrupt and discourage unwanted behavior of your
pet.
You may want to set up a scenario that you are
certain will illicit unwanted behavior. For Example,
if your pet/dog likes to steal food from the counter,
place a dish of food on the counter and supervise
your pet for signs of interest.
When you see your pet attempt to get the food, give
your pet/dog a verbal warning such as growling the
word “WRONG” or making a sound like
“AARRHHH”.
Immediately after giving the verbal warning, spray
the Pet Convincer Plus just under, at the pet’s
shoulder blade or next to your pet (never in their
face/eyes/rectum) at a minimum safe distance of 8
inches or more.
Your pet/dog will startle and you should stay still and
say nothing to your pet for a moment or two.
Then call your pet/dog away from the area and
reassure him/her that leaving the scene was the right
thing to do.
You should never yell at or verbally correct your
pet/dog after activating the Pet Convincer Plus. Once
the pet has stopped the unwanted behavior, you
should praise his/her compliance.
It is as important to praise the good behavior as it is
to correct the unwanted behavior. You are teaching
your pet how you would like him/her to behave, so be
supportive and reward their good behavior.
Hi-output Nozzle Attachment:
Screw on – Unscrew off
This nozzle attachment is used in place of the
original, standard nozzle supplied with the Pet
Convincer Plus device to provide additional air
blasting power of CO2. This increases the force of
the burst by approximately a factor of two. It is useful
for controlling the behavior of stubborn pets. This
also reduces the number of bursts available from the
Cartridge to approximately half of the bursts with
standard nozzle usage. While holding the Pet
Convincer Plus device in one hand, unscrew the
small silver-colored nozzle extension with the other
hand by twisting counter-clockwise until it is
removed. Store this original nozzle in a safe place
for later use. In a clockwise fashion, screw on the
longer hi-output nozzle until snug/finger tight. The
Pet Convincer Plus, with interchangeable nozzles, is
now ready to use with the Hi-output Nozzle!
Enjoy using your Pet Convincer Plus with your pet!
