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.
