AbbiDot T50 - Training Large Breeds

● Should your dog react to the training by hiding or acng fearfully, try to
redirect their aenon to a simple command such as “Speak” or “Sit” to
calm them down. Use treats to help your dog understand what
commands have been done correctly.
You might need to use a higher seng with your large breed dog! Even
so, you sll want to begin with a low seng or simple vibraon and work
your way up unl you find something appropriate.
Step One: Size your e-collar appropriately for your larger dog, ensuring a
snug (yet not too ght) fit. You should be able to fit two fingers between
the contact leads and your dog’s skin.
Your electric collar’s contact points should make contact with your dog’s
skin. Make sure they aren’t covered by maed fur.
The contact points should apply only light pressure to your dog’s neck.
Step Two: Begin training using beep with vibraon mode. If you need to
use ‘safe shock with beep‘, start at level 1 and slowly increase unl you
find a suitable level.
Step Three: Give your dog a command he knows, while simultaneously
pressing the acvaon buon on your dog’s e-collar remote. You’ll
release the smulaon once your dog follows through!
Remember, this isn’t meant to be used as punishment and shouldn’t be
uncomfortable. It is only a sort of physical reinforcer to go along with
your audible commands.
Closely monitor your large breed dog during the first day of use to ensure
a proper, working fit.
Removing your dog’s electric collar at night or when you can’t offer
supervision is recommended. There is always a slight chance the collar
can catch and cause a hazard.
