Phase

days until all fl ags are removed. Save Boundary Flags for future use.
Taking Your Pet Out of the Pet Area
Important: Remove the Receiver Collar and leave it in the Pet Area.
Once your pet learns the Boundary Zone, he will be reluctant to cross it
for walks or car rides.
Option 1: Replace the Receiver Collar with a regular collar. Put your pet
in a car that is within the Pet Area and drive him out of the Pet Area.
Option 2: Replace the Receiver Collar with a regular collar and leash.
Walk your pet out of the Pet Area while giving a command such as "OK"
at a specifi c place of the Boundary Zone (the end of your driveway,
sidewalk, etc.). Always leave the Pet Area with a leash at this place and
your pet will associate leaving the Pet Area only on a leash, only at this
place, and only with a person. You may initially need to convince your pet
to leave the Pet Area with a food treat and lots of praise.
Note: You may also carry your pet out of the Pet Area.
