Repeat this stage for fifteen minutes, three times per day until
there is no doubt that your dog has “Got it,” observing your
dog’s resistance to entering the boundary field or trying to
retreat before the stimulus is received. These are good signs.
D. Observe your pet: Once you are certain that your pet will
INSTINCTIVELY retreat at the first training tone, allow the animal
to roam freely and observe his behavior. Make sure that you see
him stop at the boundary flags on his own. If your dog shows
the slightest sign of confusion or stubborn behavior, continue
the training program using the lead. It’s okay to return to Stage
1 training if you think it is appropriate.
