Eliminating specific misbehaviors
The remote transmitter is designed to eliminate those misbehaviors that are exhibited by your dog while
within the containment boundary. These misbehaviors are of a wide variety and include, but are not
limited to jumping on people or furniture, digging holes, excessive barking, scratching doors or furniture,
or excessive licking or chewing.
Never use the remote transmitter to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive or biting behavior. In the
event that your dog is exhibiting such aggressive behaviors, contact a professional trainer in your area.
When using the remote transmitter for specific behavior modification, incorporate the following:
• Press the warning or correction button as soon as your dog begins the misbehavior.
• As soon as your dog stops the misbehavior, stop the correction and reward him.
• Be prepared to warn or correct your dog at all times. You never know when he might misbehave.
• When pressing the warning or correction button, do not say anything to your dog. Reserve your
verbalization for when your dog is behaving.
Obedience training
The remote transmitter can also be used to improve your dog's responses to basic obedience commands.
Incorporating the following tips will help with this type training:
• Be sure that your dog has some basic understanding of the command first. Thus, you should first train
your dog on a leash.
NOTE: When using a leash, attach it to a collar other than the receiver collar. Never attach a leash to the
receiver collar or pull the receiver collar while it is on your dog. Doing so may cause damage by pulling the contact
probes against his throat. Also, be sure that this other collar is placed above the receiver collar. This will prevent
the other collar from being pulled against the receiver collar.
• When giving the command, say it only one time. If you use your dog’s name, be sure that it is used
prior to the command.
• After giving the command, wait two seconds for your dog to respond. If he responds appropriately,
reward him. If he responds inappropriately, correct him using the " + " button. As
soon as he responds appropriately, release the button and praise him.
Finally, if you intend to use another electronic training collar (e.g., a bark control collar) in combination
with the PLUS receiver collar, you should first call our Customer Service Department (1-800-732-2677)
to determine which are recommended.
Introducing your dog to the remote transmitter
Before you begin training with an activated remote transmitter, you should first familiarize your dog to it.
Your goal is to make the remote transmitter "meaningless" to your dog. This way, he will not associate
the warning or the correction with it. If he does, you run the risk of him behaving in an acceptable
manner only when you are holding the remote transmitter or only when you are pointing it at him. At
this point in the training process the battery should not be inserted in the remote transmitter.
Your goal is to teach your dog that the warning and the correction result from an unknown source
and not from you or the remote transmitter. If you achieve this goal, your dog will learn to avoid the
correction by avoiding any behavior that precedes it.
Eliminating the remote transmitter and the receiver collar as a factor in learning is called the "Dummy
