Threshold Pet Barrier operates on the principle of positive and negative reinforcement. Your pet will learn to avoid the barrier
areas that you have set after receiving a progressive static stimulation (negative reinforcement), and your pet will learn that he is more comfortable
when he avoids the barrier areas (positive reinforcement).
In some cases, it may not be necessary to train your pet. You can let your pet wander freely to determine the new boundaries.
Monitor your pet during his first session.
Pets learn at different rates and it may take several times for your pet to successfully understand and
honor the barrier areas.
Begin Your Pet’s First Session
1. Move your pet away from the barrier area.
2. Activate the receiver collar by turning the battery door to the “on” position. Place the receiver collar around your pet’s neck. Be sure that the
receiver is directly under your pet’s neck.
3. Allow your pet to wander freely to learn the new boundaries.
