Training Guide
• Proper training of your pet is essential to the success of the system.
•
Remove the collar after each training session.
• Be sure to place the collar on your dog’s neck with the Premier Pet
™
logo facing up.
• If your pet shows signs of stress, slow down the training schedule, add additional days of training or increase
the amount of play time with your pet in the pet area. Common stress signals include the pet pulling on the
leash toward the house, ears tucked or pulled back, tail down or tucked between legs, body lowered, nervous/
frantic movement or stiffening of the pet’s body, lip-licking or yawning.
Day 1
For the first day, start with the collar set to level 1, tone-only. With your pet on a leash and his favorite treats
on hand, allow him to explore the pet area. Let him cross the boundary and hear the tone from the collar, then
ask him to come back into the pet area and reward him. Aim to teach your dog that being inside the pet area is
rewarding, while being outside it is not. Keep your mood upbeat as dogs can understand when you are happy
or upset. Do 2 or 3 training sessions for about 10-15 minutes each. Do not try to do too much too quickly. More
frequent short sessions are better than less frequent, longer sessions.
Days 2–4
On days 2 through 4, repeat this process but with the collar set to level 2: the mildest level of static correction.
Observe whether or not your dog responds to the correction. Indicators of a response are looking around in
curiosity, flicking his ears or scratching at the collar. If he does not respond, check the collar fit to make sure the
contact points are making contact with his skin. If it fits correctly and your dog does not respond, move up to the
next level and repeat the process. Do 2 or 3 training sessions for about 10-15 minutes each.
Days 5–8
On days 5 through 8, continue where you left off on day 4, but now add in some staged distractions. The goal is
to have your pet stay within the boundary even with these new temptations. Start with lower value temptations
and work your way up. Some examples are:
• Have a family member cross from inside the boundary out of it.
•
Place a toy outside the boundary.
• Have a friend or neighbor walk another pet outside the boundary area.
• Remember, it is important to keep your pet on a leash throughout this process while he is still learning the
boundary. Also, never coax your pet to leave the pet area.
Days 9–30
Once your pet consistently avoids the boundary regardless of distractions or temptations, he is ready for the next
step: unleashed supervision. Stay close by with a leash at hand. Play with your pet for a while during the first few
sessions. If your dog does not try to leave the boundary, occupy yourself with another task in the yard, and allow
him to freely explore. Continue watching your pet. If he escapes, remove the receiver collar and lead him back
into the pet area. Start these sessions at about 15 minutes and gradually work up to an hour or more.
When your pet proves trustworthy, you can let him out on his own. Continue to check on him regularly. You can
remove every other boundary flag every 4 days until all the flags are removed. Save them in case you move or
need to train another pet.
Wireless - To - Go
Your Premier Pet
™
Wireless Fence is completely portable. Follow the set-up procedures wherever you wish to
have containment of your pet. Reestablish the pet area and mark it with boundary flags so your pet knows his
boundary zone.
NOTE: If setting up in a metal building or vehicle, the maximum size of the pet area may be reduced.
Be sure to remove the receiver collar battery before turning off the fence transmitter. If you want to power the fence
transmitter from a car or other DC source, use an inverter rated for 50 watts or more.
