The basics of a training collar usage
The trainer's elementary knowledge of the dog training is the prerequisite for using the
training collar.
If you don´t have this knowledge, we recommend you to contact a training center, a cynology
club, or a school for dogs where you will learn the basic communication with your dog.
You can start using the collar for the 6 months old dog, which have undergone the basic
training and is familiar with basic obedience commands including „sit", „down", „stay" or at least
„stop it", „leave it".
Require these commands along with the audible beep tone, so your dog will create a
connection between them.
After a command that is successfully executed, you should always reward or encourage your
dog, so the dog will be happy to fulfill your commands and a desire to fulfill your commands
will grow.
You must not consider the executed command as the absolute obviousness and punish
disobedience – your dog would soon lose an interest.
If you are not sure that your dog will obey you after recall, start training on a tracking rope.
Your dog will have to get used to the collar; let the dog wear the collar for a few days, but do
not use it so that your pet does not discover the connection with its attachment and effects.
Affirmative and efficient training requires some time: don't hurry!
Select a well-known environment your dog is used to.
Choose the right moment to press the button; exactly at the moment when your dog does
something what is not allowed.
In case of any problems and for further advice, please do not hesitate to contact a professional
trainer.
Transmitter – button functions
Audible beep tone
The receiver on dog's collar begins to emit an audible beep tone (an acoustic signal). This
command can precede a stimulation impuls. It is also a very effective warning tool. You can use
the acoustic signal instead of the command: Come! / Heel! In this case it replaces a whistle, the
dog always perceives its sound in the same intensity. It's very important always to use the beep
sounds in the same way in order not to confuse your dog. While transmitting the audible beep
tone, the green LED indica tor of the receiver is emitting a light.
