The SportDOG Brand
®
YardTrainer 105 has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for dogs over 8
pounds. Consistent, correct use of this product allows you to reinforce commands and correct misbehavior
from up to 100 yards. The Remote Transmitter sends a signal, activating the Collar Receiver to deliver a
harmless stimulation. With proper training, a dog will learn to associate this signal with a command. Like
all SportDOG Brand products, this model features adjustable static stimulation levels so you can tailor the
stimulation level to your dog’s temperament, eliminating the risk of over-correction.
ImPORTANT: THE yARDTRAINER 105 COLLAR RECEIVER USES AN INTERNAL ANTENNA EmBEDDED
IN THE COLLAR STRAP TO RECEIVE SIGNALS fROm UP TO 100 yARDS.
