Training Guide

General Tips

:Eliminate one misbehavior or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast

with the training, your pet may become confused.

:Be consistent. Give your pet a tone or spray stimulation with each misbehavior.

:Do not over-correct your pet. Use as few sprays as possible to train your pet.

:Unless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your pet from situations in

which he has a history of misbehaving. However, setting up a situation as a training session

can dramatically improve your chances of success.

:If your pet reacts to the training by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his attention to a simple

and appropriate behavior such as the “Sit” command.

:Pets should be at least 6 months old before using the Trainer.

:Only let responsible family members use the Trainer. It is not a toy!

Never use the Elite Remote Spray Trainer to correct or eliminate any form

of aggressive behavior. If you are unsure if your dog is aggressive, please

consult your veterinarian or a certified trainer.

Training Your Pet with Tone

Before using the Trainer to correct your pet, spend 10 to 15 minutes per day for 2 or 3 days

helping him create the association of the tone with reward and praise. To accomplish this:

1. Push the Tone button for 2 consecutive seconds.

2. Release the button and immediately reward your pet with verbal praise, petting, or a small food

reward. Spend 3 to 5 seconds on your rewarding.

3. Wait a few minutes and repeat holding the Tone button for 2 seconds following with praise.

Vary the reward to prevent your pet from anticipating a speciﬁc type. This stage of training is

complete when your pet obviously anticipates a reward when he hears the tone.

To Train using Spray Stimulation

You control the timing of the spray being applied to your pet. If you continue to press the Spray

Button the spray will time out after 10 seconds. It will remain in time out until the button is

released.

Note: For any of these training methods to be effective, they must be used consistently along

with the command you are trying to teach your pet.

Teaching Basic Obedience

The “Sit” Command

1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet’s neck BELOW the Receiver Collar, and attach

a 10-foot leash.

2. Hold the leash and the Handheld Remote in one hand. Keep your other hand free to guide

your pet into a “Sit” position.

3. Press and hold the Spray Button.

4. Immediately give the “Sit” command while continuing to hold the

Spray Button
