Days 3 and 4 -
Continue Boundary Flag Awareness
Perform three training sessions per day, each lasting 10-15 minutes.
Goal:
To introduce your pet to the Static Correction and teach where it happens.
Setup:
• Place the Receiver Collar on your pet’s neck.
• Put a separate non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck ABOVE the Receiver Collar and attach a leash. Note: Be sure
the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
• Have tiny pieces of treats that our pet will fi nd desirable available (hot dogs or
lunch meat work well).
• Have your pet’s favorite play toy available.
Steps:
1. Walk your pet on a leash in the Pet Area. Calmly praise and talk to your pet,
occasionally giving him treats..
2. Allow your pet to move toward the Boundary Flags.
3. When your pet enters the Warning Zone, the Receiver Collar will activate and
start beeping. As your pet continues past the fl ags into the Static Correction Zone
(11A), he will receive a Static Correction.
4. Immediately after your pet receives a correction, lead him back into the Pet Area.
Praise him warmly, keep very calm body language, and offer him a treat.
5. Repeat this process at the same Boundary Flag until your pet resists going into
the static correction zone. Never pull or call your pet into the Static Correction
Zone. Lead him to the Boundary Flags, and if he decides to not move past the
fl ags, he is learning the system.

Goal:
To train your pet to stay within the Pet Area with distractions outside of the Pet Area.
Setup:

the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
• Have tiny pieces of treats available (hot dogs or lunch meat work well).
• Have your pet’s favorite play toy available.
• Create distractions to tempt your pet to enter the Warning and Static Correction Zones, such as:
- Have a family member cross from inside the Pet Area to outside of it.
- Throw a ball or treat outside of the Pet Area.
- Have a neighbor walk their pet outside of the Pet Area.
Steps:
1. With full control of your pet on a leash, have the distraction presented.
2. If your pet does not move toward the distraction, praise and offer a treat.
3. If your pet does react to the distraction, allow him to go into the Static Correction Zone.
4. Help your pet back into the Pet Area if he does not turn back after 3 seconds.
5. Treat and praise your pet anytime he comes back into the Pet Area with or without help.
6. Repeat this process with other distractions. Use other family members during this process.
