EATING WHAT’S NOT ALLOWED
The Remote Trainer can be used to stop a dog from eating
things he shouldn’t. Using a Remote Trainer makes it easy
for the dog to learn not to steal food, raid the garbage, or
eat animal droppings, because you can make these things
unpleasant to the dog.
Lesson Plan to Stop Eating What’s Not Allowed
Follow the procedure described to stop digging. The moment
the dog’s mouth actually touches the temptation, press the
stimulation button. If the dog does not
respond to the correction, press and
release the stimulation button several
times. If he is still not responding
after repetition, increase the
intensity by one level.
