General Tips

: Eliminate one misbehavior or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast
with training, your pet may become confused.
: Be consistent. Correct your pet every time he misbehaves.
: Unless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your pet from situations in
which he has a history of misbehaving. However, setting up a situation as a training session
can dramatically improve your chances of success.
: If your pet reacts to the tones by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his attention to a simple and
appropriate behavior, such as the "sit" command.
: Pets should be at least 6 months old before using the Trainer.
: Only let responsible family members use the Trainer. It is not a toy!
: Other pets in hearing range will be affected by the training tones. Therefore, training sessions
should be conducted out of hearing range of other pets.
: Training instructions in this guide are written for use with the Remote being programmed to
Mode 1. Adjust the instructions to fit your desired training mode.

Teaching Your Pet Tone A (Side Button)

Before using the Trainer to correct your pet, spend 10 to 15 minutes per day for 2 or 3 days
helping him create the association of the tone with reward and praise. To accomplish this:
1. Push the Tone A button for 2 consecutive seconds.
2. Release the button and immediately reward your pet with verbal praise, petting, or a small food
reward. Spend 3 to 5 seconds on your rewarding.
3. Wait a few minutes and repeat holding the Tone A button for 2 seconds following with praise.
Vary the reward to prevent your pet from anticipating a specific type. This stage of training is
complete when your pet obviously anticipates a reward when he hears the low tone.

Using Tone B (Upper Button)

As soon as your pet begins the earliest sign of misbehavior, press the Tone B button. For
example, if you want to teach your dog to stay off the couch, press the Tone B button as soon
as he puts one paw on it. Do not wait until he is completely on the couch.
1. Hold the Tone B button for up to 2 seconds at a time, releasing the button as soon as your
pet stops the misbehavior.
2. If your pet has not stopped the misbehavior after two seconds of correction, release the Tone
B button, then press it again for up to two consecutive seconds.
3. Continue this sequence until the misbehavior has stopped.
4. Once the misbehavior has stopped, count out two seconds and then push the Tone A Button
for two consecutive seconds.
5. Reward your pet after pushing the Tone A Button approximately once every 3 to 5 times, to
help your pet maintain the association of the low tone with reward.
