Havahart introduces the Remote Dog Trainer, a safe and effective tool to correct your dog’s misbehaviors such as jumping, digging, chewing and bark control. The Remote Dog Trainer can also be used to teach basic commands such as sit, stay and come while being effective up to 100 yards. Think of this dog training kit as a very long leash! The Havahart Remote Dog Trainer uses state-of-the-art intelligent electronics to help train your dog follow your directions/ commands. This is a proven technique used by many training professionals. It is a safe and highly effective method for both eliminating negative behavior and creating desired positive behavior. Additionally, the Remote Dog Trainer is suited for both indoor and outdoor use. How the Remote Dog Trainer Works Install the included batteries in the Remote Dog Trainer remote and collar Sync the collar and the remote together following the provided instructions Test the collar with the included Havahart Heart Tester to ensure the sync was successful Fit your dog with the Remote Dog Trainer collar Begin your training regimen or follow the instructions listed in the Instruction Manual under ‘Training your Dog’ When you press the correction button, it issues a static correction to the collar which then issues the correction to your dog Correction levels are adjustable and can be tailored to the unique temperament of your dog. Battery Power Allows you Flexibility Both the hand-held remote and collar receiver operate on disposable (CR2 & CR2450 Lithium batteries) batteries. The unit comes equipped with one set of batteries. Both units use a power saving sleep mode to help conserve battery life, and have a Low Battery indicator light. The battery life will depend on how frequently your dog receives the static correction. You’ll know the collar batteries need to be replaced when you see the collar indicator light blink red every 3 seconds. If the battery level is low in the remote trainer, you’ll see a “B” blink in the display window once every 10 seconds. 2-Dog Training Unlike many remote trainer options, the Havahart Remote Trainer can operate two collars, training two dogs at the same time (with purchase of Remote Trainer Extra Collar). This is accomplished by toggling the Dog Selector switch on the hand held-control unit. Additionally, each collar can be set to its own static correction level, allowing you flexibility for the temperament of each dog. With no dials to adjust, the hand-held remote provides an instant digital read-out that tells you which collar is in operation and the set correction level for that collar. When you press the Correction button on the remote, a static stimulus is sent to the receiver collar, and a correction is delivered via the collar receiver probes. If you wish to use tone only to control behavior, simply press the Warning button. Your dog will hear an audible tone instead of receiving stimulation and will begin to associate the tone to the misbehavior. The transmitter has 5 levels of static correction and a warning tone button. The bad tone button allows the owner the option of using an audible tone without the use of stimulus to train the dog Training is Key It is important to note that your commitment to training your dog will be the key factor in its success. Training sessions should be 10-15 minutes, 2-3 times per day, 5 days a week. Only use the Remote Trainer if your dog is older than 6 months and weighs more than 8lbs. The receiver collar fits dogs with neck sizes up to 30”. If your dog has any health issues, please talk to your veterinarian before using the collar. Safety Features As a safety feature, the unit automatically shuts off and correction is stopped if a button is pressed and held for 10 seconds.
