TRAINING GUIDE Stimulation Methods The PetSafe® SMART DOG™ Trainer has 1 tone, 1 vibration and 15 static stimulation levels. This allows you to choose the stimulation type that is best for your pet. Each dog has a different temperament, and some forms of stimulation work better than others. With 3 stimulation types to choose from on the SMART DOG™ Trainer, you can find the most effective way to get your dog’s attention. Tone (Beep) The SMART DOG™ Trainer tone volume is non-adjustable.
Marking Positive Behaviours with Tone You can use the SMART DOG™ Trainer to either mark positive behaviours or negative behaviours, but definitely not both! If you decide to use tone to mark positive behaviours, never confuse your dog by also marking negative behaviours with tone. If you use a PetSafe® containment system, you should only use tone to mark negative behaviours, as your dog is conditioned to associate tone with a stimulation if they do not retreat from their boundary.
Teaching Basic Obedience The “Sit” Command 1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck above the training collar, and attach a 3-metre lead. NOTE: Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the contact points. 2. Hold the lead and your smartphone in one hand. Keep your other hand free to guide your pet into a “Sit” position. 3. Simultaneously give the “Sit” command and hold the tone button for 1 to 2 seconds followed immediately followed by continuously holding the vibration button. 4.
The “Stay” Command 1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck above the training collar, and attach a 3-metre lead. NOTE: Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the contact points. 2. Visibly identify a designated area where you want your pet to sit by placing his bed or a large piece of cloth on the ground. 3. After identifying a place, put your pet in that area. Hold your lead in one hand and your smartphone in the other. 4.
Digging First, try to understand why your pet is digging. Many breeds, like terriers, were bred to flush out prey. Is your dog digging to find a cool spot to lie down? Is he bored? Before training your dog not to dig, make sure you are providing: • A cool, shaded area in which to lie down, and plenty of water. • An alternate activity, such as a favourite toy. • Plenty of play, exercise, and attention. • A garden free from rodents or prey that he may be trying to flush out. 1.
Rubbish Raiding The easiest way to prevent rubbish raiding is to remove rubbish and tempting food from your pet’s environment. You can use the SMART DOG™ Trainer to teach your pet to stay away from these items; however, you must be prepared to correct your pet every time he approaches them. 1. Choose the stimulation level 1 higher than your pet’s recognition level. 2. Pick a temptation for your pet and position yourself where he cannot see you. 3.
Resetting the PIN The SMART DOG™ Trainer will not allow connection to the training collar without the PIN number. If the PIN number needs to be reset use following steps: 1. Turn the training collar on, see "To Turn the Training Collar On" section. 2. After 5 seconds, the green LED will flash. Immediately press and hold the on/off button until the training collar beeps low to high. NOTE: The red LED will be illuminated during the button press and will turn off when the training collar turns off. 3.
