Training Guide
General Tips
:
Eliminate one misbehavior or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast
with training, your pet may become confused.
:
Be consistent. Correct your pet every time he misbehaves.
:
Unless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your pet from situations in
which he has a history of misbehaving. However, setting up a situation as a training session
can dramatically improve your chances of success.
:
If your pet reacts to the tones by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his attention to a simple and
appropriate behavior, such as the “sit” command.
:
Pets should be at least 6 months old before using the Trainer.
:
Only let responsible family members use the Trainer. It is not a toy!
:
Other pets in hearing range will be affected by the training tones. Therefore, training sessions
should be conducted out of hearing range of other pets.
Never use the Remote Trainer to correct or eliminate any form of
aggressive behavior. If you are unsure if your dog is aggressive, please
consult your veterinarian or a certified trainer.
Teaching Your Pet With Tone
Before using the Trainer to correct your pet, spend 10 to 15 minutes per day for 2 or 3 days
helping him create the association of the tone with reward and praise. To accomplish this:
1. Push the Tone button for 2 consecutive seconds.
2. Release the button and immediately reward your pet with verbal praise, petting, or a small food
reward. Spend 3 to 5 seconds on your rewarding.
3. Wait a few minutes and repeat holding the Tone button for 2 seconds following with praise.
Vary the reward to prevent your pet from anticipating a specific type. This stage of training is
complete when your pet obviously anticipates a reward when he hears the tone.
Find the Best Stimulation Level for Your Pet
Important: Always start at the lowest level and work your way up.
The Elite Pendant
™
Remote Trainer has 9 different Stimulation Levels. This allows you to choose
the stimulation that is best for your pet.
Once you have placed the Pendant
™
and collar on your
pet, it is time to find the Stimulation Level that is best for
him. This is called the Recognition Level.
A slight change in your pet’s behavior, such as looking
around in curiosity, scratching at his collar, or flicking his
ears, indicates the Recognition Level that is best for him.
Follow these steps to find your pet’s Recognition Level:
1. Starting at Low on the Slide Switch, press the Stimulation 1
button continuously for 1 to 2 seconds.
