2 tones (high/low). It will restart and emit the 2 tones in reverse (low/high) when the unit is in Play Mode.
If a dog or person does not initiate play, the Ball Launcher will go into Rest Mode and wait for the next
play session.
• For your dog’s safety, the Ball Launcher will only play for 15 minutes at a time, then
rest for 15 minutes. The 15 minute play period will only begin once a ball has been
dropped into the Hopper.
• To override the Rest Mode: Turn the unit OFF (with the power button) for AT LEAST 10
SECONDS. Turn the unit ON. If the unit is still in Rest Mode, turn the unit OFF again
and wait a longer time. Turn the unit ON.

TRAINING GUIDE
Teaching your dog to use the Ball Launcher will take practice. This training guide can be used with a clicker
and/or treats.
• Place the Ball Launcher in the play area with it turned OFF.
• Slowly introduce your dog to the Ball Launcher by allowing him to approach it on his own.
• When your dog looks at the machine, use the clicker and say “Yes!” and give him a treat. Do this
multiple times.
• When he approaches or interacts with the Ball Launcher, use the clicker and say “Yes!” while
rewarding him with a treat.
• Once your dog seems comfortable around the Ball Launcher when it is turned OFF, place the machine
further away from him and turn it ON without any balls in the Hopper.
• When the Ball Launcher emits a 2 second tone (low/high), use the clicker and say “Yes!” and give him a
treat. Do this several times until he looks comfortable and seems relaxed.
• Once your dog is comfortable, load one ball in the machine and stand with your dog several metres from
the Ball Launcher.
• If your dog ignores the launch tone and wants to chase the ball, release him to do so.
• If your dog seems concerned or anxious about the sound of the Ball Launcher, offer him a treat when
he hears the unit.
• Keep your dog at a comfortable distance during the launch until he appears relaxed and unconcerned
about the sound.
