GETTING STARTED
The following items are recommended in addition to your Pro-Training Collar™:
• 6-foot leash
• 4–6 inch tab leash (for use indoors and in intermediate training)
• Soft, bite-sized treats (for those who wish to use food rewards in training)
• Treat pouch (for quick access to rewards)
Leash and Collar Guidelines: Unless otherwise noted, your dog should wear his Pro-Training Collar™ with the
6-foot leash (or tab leash when in the home) attached whenever he is actively supervised. Never leave a leash
and collar on an unsupervised dog. He should wear the Pro-Training Collar™ not just during training sessions,
but whenever he is with you. Incorporating obedience exercises into your dog’s daily routine permits consistent
communication and accelerated learning. In time, it will not be necessary to keep a leash and collar on your
dog when at home, or you will only use it as needed. Put the Pro-Training Collar™ on your dog at least five (5)
minutes before the actual training session to give your dog some quiet time with the collar on prior to training. It
is best not to put the Pro-Training Collar™ on your dog immediately before beginning training.
Never leave a leash and collar on an unsupervised dog. Daily use of the Pro-Training Collar™ is encouraged.
Avoid possible skin irritation by having your dog wear the Pro-Training Collar™ for no more than 12 consecutive
hours.
Training Area: When beginning any new obedience exercise, choose a quiet location that is free from
distractions, yet familiar to your dog (your backyard or a spacious room in your home will work). Locations
