During these days, you may allow your dog off the training lead when you are outside
with him. If your dog respects the Avoidance Zone during this period, you may begin let
ting him outside by himself beginning on Day Fifteen. During the eight through fourteen
day period, we suggest having friends drop by, enter the property and talk with you while
petting your dog. Also talk with your neighbor, "over the fence." i-fe should be on his prop
erty, with you and your dog on yours. By the end of the fourteenth day, your dog should
be thoroughly boundary trained. You may begin taking down the training flags during this
period. Remove every other flag each day.
TAKING THE DOG OUTSIDE THE BOUNDARY

receiver collar, put him in your car inside the safety zone, then drive him off the property.
After the first month, you can walk your dog across the boundary in the following manner:
bring him, on a lead, to a designated spot at the edge of the signal field. It should be a
location where he is not accustomed to leaving the property. Remove the DogWatch col
lar. Tell your dog to
'Waif'
or "Stay" while you cross the boundary. Allow him to follow you
using a release word, such as "OK." Always cross the boundary wire at the same location

YOUR DOG'S RESPONSE
To
STIMULATION
Stimulation has been a safe and effective part of dog training for over twenty years. All
dogs respond differently when they feel mild stimulation. Some dogs may demonstrate
little, if any, reaction, while others may yelp and/or jump back. Some dogs "freeze." Do not
try to comfort him after he receives a stimulation or your will reinforce his anxiety.
PLEASE REMEMBER
• Adjust the collar and test the battery regularly.
• Keep the contact posts clean.
• Do not throw a retrieving object into the Avoidance Zone.
• Maintain a positive attitude when teaching your dog.
• Never allow your dog to cross the boundary wire.
1. Repeat Day Five. Substitute a family member as your assistant.
NEVER ENCOURAGE YOUR DOG TO ENTER THE AVOIDANCE ZONE OR TO
CROSS THE BOUNDARY WIRE.
