Phase 2
Days 2 Through 4—Boundary Awareness with Static Correction
Perform 3 training sessions per day, each lasting 10–15 minutes.
Goal:
To train your pet to stay in the pet area and respect the boundary.
Setup:
• Program the static correction level on the receiver collar to level 2.
• Put a separate non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck below the receiver collar and attach a leash.
Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the contact points.
• Have small pieces of your pet’s favorite treats available.
• Have your pet’s favorite play toy available.
Steps:
1. Repeat steps 1–3 in Phase 1, this time allowing your pet to stay in the correction zone long enough to be corrected.
2. Observe whether or not your pet seems to feel the correction. A slight change in your pet’s behavior, such as looking around in curiosity,
scratching at his collar or flicking his ears, indicates your pet’s recognition level. If your pet does not respond to the static correction, confirm
that the receiver collar is fitting properly according to Step 11 on page 23.
3. If the receiver collar is fitted properly and your pet does not respond to the static correction, increase the static correction level by one
setting. Continue to observe whether your pet is looking around in curiosity, scratching at his collar or flicking his ears.
4. Stay at the same flag until your pet resists going into the static correction zone.
Phase 3
Days 5 Through 8—Distraction Phase
Perform 3 training sessions per day, each lasting 10–15 minutes.
Goal:
To train your pet to stay within the pet area with distractions outside of the pet area.
Setup:
• Program the static correction level on the receiver collar to level 2 or higher, depending on the reaction results from days 2 through 4.
• Put a separate non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck below the receiver collar and attach a leash.
Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the contact points.
