TRAINING GUIDE
Be Patient With Your Pet
Important: Proper training of your pet is essential to the success of the Little Dog Deluxe In-Ground Fence™ . Read this section
completely before beginning to train your pet. Remember that the Little Dog Deluxe In-Ground Fence™ is not a solid barrier.
• Have fun with your pet throughout the training process. Training should be fun, fair, rm and consistent.
• Train for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Don’t try to do too much too quickly. More-frequent short sessions are better than less-
frequent longer sessions.
• If your pet shows signs of stress, slow down the training schedule, add additional days of training, or increase the amount of
play time with your pet in the Pet Area. Common stress signals include:
- Pet pulling on lead toward the house
- Ears tucked
- Tail down
- Body lowered
- Nervous / frantic movement or stiffening of pet’s body
• Your pet must be completely comfortable near the Boundary Flags at the end of every training session. Spend at least 5
minutes of “play time” at the completion of each session within 3 m (10 ft) of the Boundary Flags.
• Finish each training session on a positive note with lots of praise and play.
• Remove the Receiver Collar after each training session.
• Be sure to contain your pet by another means during the training period (e.g. pen, tie-out, lead, etc.).
• During training, if you need to take your pet out of the Pet Area, remove the Receiver Collar and either pick your pet up or put
him in the car to pass out of the Pet Area.
• Even if you think your pet is responding well to the training, complete the entire training. Reinforcement is important!
