Introduction The Wireless Crate offers unsurpassed freedom and daily enjoyment for you and your dog. With the Wireless Crate, there are no cage wires or plastic walls to obstruct you and your dog’s view, as would be the case with a traditional crate. So you and your dog can enjoy each other’s company, without your dog begging at the dinner table or storming the door when guests arrive.
How the Wireless Crate™ Works The Wireless Crate is designed to work with existing Radio Systems PetSafe Receiver Collars. If you have a Radio System PetSafe In-Ground Fence, your collar will also work with the Wireless Crate, eliminating the need for separate collars. The Wireless Crate functions by detecting the dog on the crate and signaling the dog through a choice of tone or mild static stimulation if the dog exits the crate without your permission.
Indicator Light The Indicator Light blinks green to indicate the bed is on and ready for use. If the light is red, the crate is not operating properly. Check the batteries. If the batteries are good and the light is still red, please contact our Customer Care Center at 1-800-732-2677. Training Flags Place the training flags in the small sleeves provided in the fabric cover. Once your dog is trained to the Wireless Crate™, you may remove the flags.
Training Guide Fit the Receiver Collar Tips Important: The proper fit and placement of your Receiver Collar is important for effective operation. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin on the underside of his neck. To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps: 1. Make sure that the Receiver Collar is turned off. 2. Start with your dog standing comfortably (3A). 3. Place the Receiver Collar high on your dog’s neck close to the ears.
Find the Best Stimulation Level for Your Pet Important: Always start at the lowest level and work your way up. The PUL-275BM has 5 different Stimulation Levels. This allows you to choose the Stimulation that is best for your dog. Once you have placed the Receiver Collar on your dog, it is time to find the Stimulation Level that is best for him. This is called the Recognition Level.
DAY 1, First Session This session will take about 30-45 minutes. Teaching Your Pet the Place Command Step 1 1. The Wireless Crate switch should be in “off” position. 2. Use a leash to guide the dog into the Wireless Crate. Say “Place”, praise your dog and give him a treat. The “Place” command indicates to the dog that he should move into the designated area and stay. Initially, you should use body language to help the dog understand that this word refers to the Wireless Crate. 3.
Teaching Your Pet using the Audible Beep Tone Step 5 1. Instruct your dog to “Place” on the Wireless Crate. 2. While your dog is on the Wireless Crate, change the Wireless Crate to the Beep Only mode ( ). Each time he steps off the crate, the collar will beep. Calmly pick up the leash and guide him back onto the Wireless Crate. The beeping will cease when he steps back on the crate. It is important to praise your dog and give him a treat after each successful attempt. 3.
