Tri-Tronics G2 Basic Training - Manual (Page 11)

Put the dog in a situation where you know he’ll bark. When he begins to
bark, give your command to be quiet in a stern voice and then press the
continuous stimulation button. Release it a moment later.
Repeat this several times until the dog will stop barking when he hears
the command to be quiet.
Repeat this procedure on different days. If possible, find various situations
that cause the dog to bark. Sometimes do not give the command to be quiet;
instead let the dog bark. In other words, don’t correct every time the dog
barks, but at this stage of training, always correct if you have given the
command to be quiet.
If, by the end of your second training session, you find that the dog doesn’t
stop barking when you press the button, set the intensity to the next higher
level. Repeat the procedure.
After a week of this training, don’t press the button after the first time
you give the command to stop barking. Instead, wait to see if the dog stops
barking when he hears your command. Now, if he continues to bark after
one such warning, repeat the command, and press the stimulation button.
Eating What’s Not Allowed – Summary of Steps
• Use a pre-selected intensity level.
• Place the dog in an area with the appropriate temptation, and watch him.
• Press the stimulation button the instant his mouth actually touches the
temptation. If he does not respond, press and release it several times.
• If the dog ignores the correction, increase the intensity by one level.
• Continue the training process until the dog has gone for three days without
trying to go for the temptation.
• During the training period, do not give the dog a chance at the temptation
unless you can correct him.
Controlling Barking
Barking is a strong instinctive behavior in dogs. Some dogs start barking almost
without thinking, so it’s not realistic to try to teach a dog never to bark.
However, you can teach him to be quiet on command, or in certain situations.
You can use the Remote Trainer to limit barking by training the dog
to stop barking when he hears the word “Quiet!” (or another command
of your choice).
Lesson Plan to Control Barking
Set the intensity to the level you selected for your dog in the section
“Intensity Selection Tips.”
