If you don’t have the proper length contact points, the collar won’t work correctly. For smaller dogs, the short contact points should be used. For larger dogs, or dogs with a heavier hair coat, you should use the longer contact points.
Tighten the buckle by holding it with two fingers as you pull the strap snug. Remote training collars must be put on a dog quite snuggly to ensure consistent contact and reliable stimulation. The collar needs to be placed relatively high on the dog’s neck, usually just a couple of inches below the dog’s ears. The collar should be pretty snug on the dog’s neck and it should not dangle. If the collar is too loose, the contact points will not be touching your dog and it will not work.

misbehaviour. 6. Teach the dog a command first before reinforcing the command with the remote transmitter. 7. Issue one obedience command at a time. Do not use the training system for commands that the dog has not learnt. 8. Do not overcorrect your dog. Use as few stimulations as possible to train your dog. 9. During training, look for all the positive changes in the dog's behavior and remember to reinforce them promptly with ample praise and reward. 10.
13. Never use the PTS1200 Dog Training Collar to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behaviour. If your dog exhibits such behaviour, contact a professional trainer. Aggression in dogs is the result of many factors- it may be a learned behaviour or it may be brought on as a result of fear. Another factor contributing to aggression in dogs is social dominance. Every dog is different.
3. Press a stimulation button on the remote transmitter. 4. The test light will flash. 5. Turn the collar receiver off. Save the Test Light for future testing. Note: If the Test Light does not flash, recharge the battery and re-test. . HOW DOGS LEARN Here are some basic guidelines that cover all your remote trainer work on obedience commands. Follow a step-by-step introduction process on each command. Don’t assume that your dog will understand a remote trainer correction in connection with a command.
Don’t introduce remote training around distractions. Keep things simple for your dog in their first sessions. They can’t learn well when there’s too much going on. Learning to Train Every animal on the planet has an alpha or beta relationship with every other animal. We usually think of “beta” as submissive and beaten down, but in wild packs or herds, that is not the case. The beta dog in a pack of wild dogs is still quite happy and lives a good life.
challenges are subtle. Those are the ones you must pay close attention to while training. If you win the small battles, the big fights will be much easier to handle. Dogs see the world in black and white. To your dog, either you are in control or it is. There is no middle ground. There are two most important points, conditioned responses and substitution, will be the cornerstones of your training program. Conditioned responses to commands are mandatory for a properly trained dog.
1,000 repetitions per command will do this nicely. That might seem like an undoable task but if you will train consistently, it will take only a short time. Substitution: This is where we use a stimulus to cause a response and then add another stimulus simultaneously until the second stimulus evokes the same response as the first. You might remember Dr. Pavlov’s work with ringing the dinner bell as he was feeding his dog.
to achieve desired results. Is the collar waterproof? Yes, they are designed to be completely waterproof. Any problems please email us for a faster or similar response time. If the rubber stopper comes away from the charging port, is the collar and remote still waterproof? Yes, this makes no difference to the waterproof status of the device, though keep in place if possible to keep debris out and for peace of mind.
Once my dog is trained, do I still need to use the collar? This is up to you, you can keep the collar on for insurance, or only wear it in high risk environments. If you dog is completely trustworthy now you can choose either way. You may also just use it from time to time as a reinforcement or as a refresher for certain behaviors. Can I use this on my aggressive dog? We do not recommend any of our products to be used on aggressive dogs.
You can hold down the vibration or shock button for up to 8 seconds before the safety feature kicks in and it stops. You then need to press the button again if you want to shock for up to 8 seconds again. What do I do if on the off chance my dogs neck becomes red and irritated? This is due to the contact points irritating the skin. Discontinue use for a few days. If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
shock to see if the button lights up. If they do then the collar is ready to go. Can I test the collar on the back of my hand or arm? This is up to you and we take no liability for this action.

Is this a continuous or one-time shock? Both. It will stop when you let go of the button. If you only press it once then is will be a one-time shock.
How long does the battery last? The length of time the battery lasts between charges depends on how much you use the device. If used often is will need to be charged every other day like a mobile phone. The batteries are designed to last 3-5 years if used regularly.
