Before you start training, ensure that the transmitter and boundary wire
are installed and that the receiver collar is adjusted properly.
1. Place markers on the edge of the boundary area – the zones in which
the receiver collar picks up a radio signal. Markers serve as visual
clues for your pet (see Diagram 3).
Markers
2. Play with him in the safety zone for several minutes. Attach a leash to
your pet's regular collar and walk him around inside the safety zone.
Approach a boundary area, shake a warning marker in front of him,
and firmly say, "Watch out!" or "Careful!"
3. Walk your pet near a boundary zone and allow him to walk between the
warning markers. As he crosses into the boundary area, he will receive
an audible warning and an electrical stimulation. Immediately call out,
"Watch out", and pull your pet back from the avoidance zone. Return him
to the safety zone and play with him for a few minutes to reinforce the
idea that there is a safe zone and there are areas to avoid.
4. Again, allow your pet to approach a boundary zone. If he hears the
audible warning and retreats to the safety zone, reinforce the behav-
ior with praise and affection. If your pet fails to stop at the audible
warning and receives an electrical stimulation, say "Watch out" as he
approaches the avoidance zone. Use the leash to pull him back to the
safety zone before he crosses completely into an avoidance zone.
Your pet will quickly learn not to go near the boundary areas. Each
time you set up a new boundary area, be sure to retrain your pet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Receiver
Why is my dog not getting a correction? Test the receiver by placing
the test light on the contact posts and holding the receiver next to the
transmitter or boundary wire. Replace the battery if necessary. Be sure
the battery is inserted correctly. Ensure that the contact points on the
receiver collar actually touch your pet's skin; tighten the collar as
required. Make sure that the battery cap is facing downward when your
pet is wearing the receiver unit.
Transmitter
If the power is on, should the unit light be blinking? If you're using
the AM version, the green power light will blink. On the FM version, the
Power light is a steady green light. Make sure that the power supply
transformer is securely plugged into the wall outlet and that both the
power supply plug and the boundary wire are correctly connected into
the transmitter. Adjust the Range +/– switch. It may be set on too narrow
a range, allowing your pet to get too close to a boundary area before
receiving a warning. Check your MODE setting. Never adjust the trans-
mitter while your pet is wearing the receiver collar.
Wiring
Why isn't the green light on? Check the Power. (Page 2.) If your unit
is wireless, be sure it is set appropriately to "INT" and that it is plugged
in to an outlet. If your unit is connected to a boundary wire loop you may
have a broken boundary wire. Make sure that the boundary wire is con-
nected to "EXT" and that the boundary wire forms a continuous loop. If
the boundary is broken or disconnected, the loop light will go out. To test
for a break in the loop, move the switch from EXT to INT and if the
green light comes on, you have a break in the boundary loop. Contact
your dealer.

IMPORTANT!
The use of any battery other than a battery authorized by DogWatch Inc. can
cause erratic operation of the receiver or could cause permanent damage.
The use of any unauthorized battery will void the warranty on the receiver.
