Day 1 - Boundary Flag Awareness
Phase
1
Tone Plus Vibration Only Training Mode
Perform three sessions on day one, each training session lasting 10-15 minutes.
Goal:
To have your pet learn that the Boundary Flags and warning beep and vibration from the Receiver Collar define the
new Pet Area.
Setup:
• Program the Static Correction Level on the Receiver Collar to Level 1 Tone Plus Vibration Only Training Mode
and place it on your pet's neck.
• Put a separate non-metallic collar on your pet's neck ABOVE the Receiver Collar and attach a lead.
Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
• Have tiny pieces of treats that your pet will find desirable available.
• Have your pet's favourite play toy available.
Steps:
1. Begin by walking your pet on a lead in the Pet Area. Calmly praise and talk to your pet.
2. Move toward the Boundary Flags (10A). Keep your mood happy.
3. With full control of your pet on a lead, walk to the flags. As your pet enters the Static Correction Zone, the
Receiver Collar will begin to beep and vibrate (10B). Allow him to stay in the Static Correction Zone for 2
seconds then gently help him back into the Pet Area (10C). Immediately praise and offer your pet a treat as he
enters the Pet Area, even if you have helped with the lead.
4. Repeat this process at the same Boundary Flag until your pet resists going into the Static Correction Zone.
5. Aim to master 3-4 Boundary Flags per session. Make this FUN! Praise if your pet quickly retreats or resists going
into the Static Correction Zone.
Note: Never allow your pet to eat the treat in the Static Correction Zone.
