Indication light of the Receiver Collar is not on either, you can shake Receiver
Collar or force the dog to move, and the indication light of the Receiver Collar
will show green, which means the Receiver Collar is active and will work.

Fit the Receiver Collar with your dogs:
Attaching the Contact Points
In your package that you received, you will find 3 sets of contact points with
silicone covers placed over the contact points, DO NOT REMOVE the covers as
they protect your dog from the irritation from the contact points.
These contact points are screwed onto the receiver so that the points can effectively
contact the dogs skin without hair/fur interfering with the connection.
Important: The proper fit and placement of your collar is important for effective
training. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your pet's skin on the
underside of the dog's neck.
To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Have your pet standing comfortably (3A).
2. Centre the Contact Points underneath your pet's neck, touching the skin (3B).
If your pet has a long or thick coat, please use longer Contact Points, we enclosed
3 sets Contact Points, short ones and longer ones.
CAUTION: There are 100 levels for Vibration and Stimulation. The strong
Stimulation can penetrate the hair of the pet and fabric within 6mm thick. Do not
shave the pet's neck as this may increase the risk of skin irritation.
3. The Collar should fit snugly, yet loose enough to allow one finger to fit between
the strap and your pet's neck(3C).
4. Allow your pet to wear the collar for several minutes then recheck the fit. Check
the fit again as your pet becomes more comfortable with the Collar. If your pet's
neck is less than 12”around, you will need to thread the part of the collar through
the buckle. It will be a tight fit.
CAUTION: Risk of skin damage.
For comfort, safety and effectiveness of this product. Please ensure that you
check the fit of your pet's collar frequently. If any skin irritation is observed,
discontinue the use of the collar for a few days. If the condition persists beyond
48 hours, see your veterinarian.
Do not attach a leash to the Collar. This can result in pulling the Contact Points
too tightly against your pet's neck. You may put a separate nonmetallic collar
on your dog's neck and attach a leash.
The Receiver Collar is not designed to be worn constantly. We recommend the
Collar not be worn for more than 12 hours out of every 24-hour period.
Most pets feel uncomfortable at first wearing the collar. Don't use any functions
until the pet has gotten used to the collar.
We suggest you give the dog Vibration before starting the Static Shock. After a
time of training, the dog will learn that Static Shock Stimulation will come after
Vibration. In this way, the vibration alone can effectively curb the improper
deeds of the pet. The Stimulation only acts as a menace that might be
unnecessary most of the time.
-11- -12-
5. Regular Maintenance
Check Contact Points for tightness weekly.
Clean Contact Points with alcohol weekly.
Note: remove the battery and discharge Regular the Bark Automatic Control
Collar before touching the Contact Points.
Check your dog's neck for irritation and wash neck weekly.

(5) You will have more success by teaching the dog a command first before trying
to reinforce to command with the remote trainer.
(6) For basic obedience training, VIBRATION and AUDIO modes are more useful.
(7) Issue an obedience command at a time, which will focus your dog's attention
and reduce confusion. Do not use the remote collar to correct commands that
have not already been covered.
(8) During training, look for all the positive changes in your dog's behavior and
remember to reinforce them promptly with ample praise and reward.
(9) Avoid over-correcting your dog. Use as few remote corrections as possible
during the training process.
(10) When your dog has become apparently perplexed, shift the focus of the training
session by drawing his/her attention to a command they are familiar with, e.g.
sit. Give your dog praise and encouragement galore on successful completion
of the command. Repeat this several times before returning to training with
remote corrections
(11) If you know a particular misbehavior your dog does, then reinvent this situation
during a training session. You will have far more success if you deal with one
misbehavior at a time in a controlled situation.
(12) Be consistent; give your dog a tone, vibration or static-stimulation correction
for each misbehavior. When reinforcing a command with a correction. It is
critical that you do so without emotion then immediately praise and reward
your dog for marking the right decision
(13) When your dog seems to react in a timid and frightened fashion to either the
tone, vibration or static-stimulation, particularly in early training sessions, do
not be flabbergasted. Shift the focus of the training session by drawing his/
her attention to a command they are familiar with. E.G. sit and give your dog
abundant praise and encouragement on successful completion of the command.
(14) Do not use Petrainer Remote Pet Training Collar to correct or eliminate form
of aggression or biting behavior. When your dog is showing signs of aggressive
behavior then contact a professional dog trainer in your vicinity
(15) Please be reminded that you should keep training sessions short and end
every session on a high note. Stop training and play with your dog as soon as
he/she has accomplished a new level of proficiency.

Digging
It is important to first understand why your pet is digging. Many dogs, such as
terriers, were bred to flush out prey, and digging is very innate to them. Other dogs
may be digging to find a cool spot to lie down, or simply out of boredom. Your pet
may no longer have the desire to dig if he is provided with the following: A cool,
shaded area in which to lie down, and plenty of water. An alternate activity, such
as a favorite toy. Plenty of play, exercise, and attention. A yard free from rodents
or prey that he may be trying to flush out.
1. Place the Receiver Collar on your pet and wait at least 10 minutes before placing
him in the yard. No other people or pets should be in the yard, as you do not want
your pet to associate the stimulation with anything other than his digging. Your
pet must be securely fenced in or contained during training.
2. From a window or area where your pet cannot see you, wait until your pet begins
to dig.
3. While your pet digs, press the Stimulation Button and release it when he stops
digging. Only press the button while your pet is in the act of digging, and do not
say anything to him.
4. If your pet ignores the stimulation, increase the Intensity Level.
5. Continue to watch your pet, as he may choose another area to dig.
6. Do not allow your pet in the yard unsupervised until he has completely stopped
digging.
Chasing
Chasing is an instinctive behavior stimulated by moving objects. Some dogs have
a particularly strong desire to chase that can put them in harm's way and leave
you helpless. Never allow your dog off the leash or out of a contained area until he
has learned the “Come” command, regardless of the distraction. Be consistent
and correct your dog every time he chases something. It is vitally important that
you and your dog remain safe while learning during on-leash training. Your dog
should be on a strong leash, long enough for him to attempt to chase an object,
but short enough for him not to reach a road or other unsafe area. You must also
be physically strong enough to restrain your dog when he tries to chase.
1. If your dog has not learned the “Come” command, keep a leash on him so you
can physically stop him before he reaches the object he is chasing.
2. Set up a scenario where your dog is enticed to chase an object. Common items
could be cars, motorcycles, bicycles, etc. (do not use toys).
3. When the object passes in front of your dog, make sure to hold the leash with
a firm grip. As soon as your dog begins to chase the object, press and hold the
Stimulation Button until he stops.
4. When your dog stops chasing the object, immediately release the button, walk
backwards and give the command “Come.” Praise your dog as he comes to you.
5. Repeat the process until your dog stops chasing the object.
Trash Raiding
The easiest way to prevent trash raiding is to remove garbage and tempting food
from your pet's environment. You can use the Remote 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. Pick a temptation for your pet and position yourself where he cannot see you.
2. While your pet's mouth is touching the temptation, press and hold the Stimulation
Button. Immediately release the button when your pet leaves the temptation.
3. Do not say anything, as you want your pet to associate the stimulation with his
behavior, not you.
4. If your pet does not respond to the stimulation, increase the Intensity Level and
repeat the process.
5. Repeat this process in several different locations with different temptations.
(3) During initial training sessions, keep your dog in a familiar outdoor environment
e.g. an enclosed area of the garden and away from other dogs/animals and
people. Training in new locations may cause your dog to become distracted
causing you to reinforce your commands with the remote collar-receiver more

The following are tips on how to get the best out of your Petrainer Remote
Pet Training Collar:
(1) Make the training sessions short and positive (between 10-15 minutes long
for each time), which will enable your dog to keep its attention focused on you.
(2) Train one dog at a time.
(4) Use a long leash fastened to a non-metallic collar to help his/her learning.
Ensure the additional collar and leash does not interfere with the skin contact
of the metal probes on the collar-receiver. Do not use the remote training collar
without a long leash until your dog is fully trained.

Perfecting Basic Obedience
Note: When we refer to stimulation button this will change depending on your
model, for models PET998DR, PET998DB, this will be your “Y” button. For any
other models, there should be a stimulation button for each type of stimulation
(static shock, vibration and beep).
The “Sit” Command
1. Put a separate, non metallic collar on your pet's neck above the Receiver collar
and attach at least a 10-foot leash.
Note: Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
2. Hold the leash and the Remote Transmitter in one hand, keep your other hand
free to guide your pet into a “Sit” position.
3. Press and hold your stimulation button, be it shock, vibration or beep.
4. Immediately give the “Sit” command while holding down your desired stimulation
button.
5. Release the stimulation as soon as your dog sits and then give him praise.
6. Release your dog from the “Sit” command and play.
7. Repeat Steps 2 through 6.
The “Come” Command
1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet's neck ABOVE the Receiver
Collar, and attach a 10-foot leash. Note: Be sure the extra collar does not put
pressure on the Contact Points.
2. Hold your leash in one hand and the Remote Transmitter in the other.
3. Wait for your pet to walk away from you. Once he's far enough away, press and
hold the Stimulation Button (shock, vibration or beep) on your Remote Transmitter.
4. Immediately give the command “Come” while continuing to hold your Stimulation
Button.
5. Using the leash, gently guide your pet toward you until he begins to come in
your direction.
6. Immediately release the Stimulation Button as soon as your pet steps towards
you, and praise him enthusiastically.
7. Quickly move backwards as your pet begins to come back to you, praising him
the entire time.
8. Praise your pet when he returns to you.
9. Repeat Steps 3 through 8.
10. Once your pet responds readily to the “Come” command several times, back
away from him without giving a command. When your pet turns toward you,
give the command “Come” (WITHOUT STIMULATION) and praise him while
you continue to back up. Praise your pet when he returns to you.
11. Use your leash to prevent your pet from running past you. If your pet manages
to run past you, repeat Steps 3 through 8.
The “Stay” Command
1. Put a separate, non-metallic collar on your pet's neck ABOVE the Receiver
Collar, and attach a 10-foot leash. Note: Be sure the extra collar does not put
pressure on the Contact Points.
2. Put your pet on his bed. Hold your leash in one hand and the Remote Transmitter
in the other.
3. Staying within 3 feet, walk the perimeter of the bed. Do not say anything to your
pet.
4. If your pet tries to leave the bed, press and hold the Stimulation Button and give
the “Stay” command. Continue to hold the button until your pet is back on his
bed. If necessary, use the leash to guide your pet onto his place.
5. Praise your pet when he is back on his bed.
6. Once your pet has settled for a few seconds, release him and play calmly.
7. Repeat steps 1 through 5.
Eliminating Unwanted Behavior
Jumping Up
Pets typically jump up to get attention. If you do not want your pet to jump on you,
then friends or members of the family should not encourage this behavior. That
means e ver y time yo ur pe t jump s on some one , he sho uld be r epr ima n de d o r
redirected to an alternate and acceptable behavior, for which he can receive praise.
Note: It is best if your pet first understands the “Sit” command.
1. As soon as your pet lifts his paws off the ground to jump on you, press the
Stimulation Button and give the command “Sit.”
2. Release the Stimulation Button immediately once your pet is sitting, and verbally
praise him.
3. If your pet ignores the stimulation, increase the Intensity Level until he/she
responds.
4. Practice this exercise in several different areas and use different people for
distractions.
