Training Guide
The PetSafe ® Pawz Away ® Mini Pet Barrier operates on the principle of
positive and negative reinforcement. Your pet will learn to avoid the
Barrier Areas you have set after receiving a Progressive Static Correction
(negative reinforcement) and your pet will learn that he is more
comfortable when he avoids the Barrier Areas (positive reinforcement).
In some cases, it may not be necessary to train your pet. You can let
your pet wander freely to determine the new boundaries. Monitor your
pet during his first session. Pets learn at different rates and it may
take several times for your pet to successfully understand and honor the
Barrier Areas.
Begin Your Pet’s First Session
1. Move your pet away from the Barrier Area.
2. Activate the Receiver Collar by turning the battery door to the ON
position. Place the Receiver Collar around your pet’s neck. Be sure
that the Receiver is directly under your pet’s neck.
3. Allow your pet to wander freely to learn the new boundaries.
