Training Guide General Tips :: For multi dog households, train one dog at a time. :: Use only dry treats/kibble. :: When using the Handheld Remote, it is best that your dog associate the treats/kibble with you, not the Handheld Remote. :: Don’t point the remote at your pet. :: Keep training fun! :: Begin training with his favorite treat/kibble until your dog is comfortable taking treats from the dispenser. :: If your dog barks, tries to bite or paw at the Treat Dispenser, change his focus to you.
Teaching Your Pet the Audible Tone The PetSafe Treat Dispenser includes an audible tone that can be used for additional training. The tone is turned on by default from the factory. Using the Handheld Remote and Treat Dispenser, spend 10-15 minutes a day for a few days to teach your dog the association. Most dogs quickly learn a treat follows the tone. 1. Before teaching your dog the tone, use the tone switch on the back of the dispenser (see page 5) to turn the tone off. 2.
Stay 1. Repeat PLACE steps three, four, and five until you are confident your dog associates going to his place with receiving treats/kibble. 2. With your dog on his place, let go of (but do not remove) the leash. 3. Slowly begin adding distance by backing away, no more than four feet in the beginning, repeating the “Stay” command. 4. If your dog begins to follow while you add space, quickly grab the leash, lead him back to his place, and begin adding space again. 5.
Begging Begging can be annoying and disruptive. If you don’t want your pet to beg, then friends or members of the family should not encourage this behavior. This means every time your pet begs, he should be reprimanded or redirected to an alternate and acceptable behavior, for which he can receive praise. 1. Ensure the Treat Dispenser is on and ready to use. 2. As soon as your pets begins to beg, press the Handheld Remote button and dispense the treats/kibble. 3.
