Training Your Dog to Use the Boundary

Before you can use the Delta Inbounds wireless containment

system, you must train your dog to use the boundary.

When using the wireless containment system the first time, you

should complete these tasks to train your dog to be aware of the

boundary and the consequence if your dog crosses the

boundary. Proper training of your dog is essential to the success

of the wireless containment system.

Introduce your dog to the boundary (Introducing Your Dog to

the Boundary, page 4).

Reinforce boundary awareness using stimulation (Reinforcing

Boundary Awareness Using Stimulation, page 4).

Test boundary awareness using distraction (Testing

Boundary Awareness Using Distraction, page 4).

Supervise your dog's boundary awareness (Supervising Your

Dog's Boundary Awareness, page 5).

Introducing Your Dog to the Boundary

Before you introduce your dog to the boundary, you should turn

off stimulation on the dog collar device, and set up the boundary

(Setting up a Boundary, page 2).

This training phase trains your dog that the boundary flags and

warning beep from the dog collar device define the new safe

area.

TIP: You should have small treats and your dog's favorite play

toy available.

Attach the leash to a separate, non-metal collar positioned

above the dog collar device.

NOTE: Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the

contact points.

Calmly walk your dog on a leash inside the containment area.

With full control of your dog on a leash, walk to the flags.

As your dog reaches the boundary, the dog device beeps.

Allow your dog to stay at the boundary for up to 2 seconds,

and then guide the dog back to the containment area.

You should immediately praise your dog as he enters the

containment area, even though you helped guide him with

the leash.

Repeat this process at the same flag until your dog resists

going to the boundary.

Plan to master three or four flags per session.

TIP: You should praise your dog if he quickly returns or

resists going to the boundary.

TIP: You should make a game out of training your dog to

come back into the containment area each time he hears the

tone from the dog device.

Reinforcing Boundary Awareness Using Stimulation

When your dog becomes familiar with the boundary and returns

to the containment area when he hears a tone, you are ready to

enable correction.

This training phase trains your dog to stay in the containment

area and respect the boundary.

TIP: You should have small treats and your dog's favorite play

toy available.

On the base unit, set the stimulation level of the dog collar

device to the lowest setting, or enable vibration (Setting the

Intensity Level Using the Base Unit, page 3).

Repeat the procedure to introduce your dog to the boundary

(Introducing Your Dog to the Boundary, page 4).

NOTE: When your dog is in the boundary area and hears a

tone, he will also feel a mild stimulation or vibration. You

should watch for a slight reaction to the stimulation such as

looking around, raising his ears, turning his head, or

otherwise indicating he is feeling something different than

normal.

If your dog does not respond to stimulation when he reaches

the boundary, confirm that the dog collar device fits properly.

If the dog collar device fits properly and your dog does not

respond to the stimulation, increase the stimulation level by

one.

NOTE: Vibration is a fixed level and cannot be adjusted.

Stay at the same flag until your dog resists going to the

boundary.

Using tone and correction, your dog should avoid the boundary

and stay in the containment area. When your dog returns to the

containment area, you should praise him.

Testing Boundary Awareness Using Distraction

When your dog understands the boundary and returns to the

containment area when he hears a tone or receives a correction,

you are ready to enhance the training by introducing

distractions.

This training phase trains your dog to stay within the

containment area even when tempted by distractions outside of

the boundary.

TIP: You should have small treats and your dog's favorite play

toy available.

Attach the leash to a separate, non-metal collar positioned

above the dog collar device.

NOTE: Be sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the

contact points.

On the base unit, set the stimulation level of the dog collar

device to a higher setting, depending on the reaction result

from Reinforcing Boundary Awareness Using Stimulation,

page 4, or enable vibration.

Walk your dog to the boundary and return to the containment

area to confirm he has a clear understanding of the tone at

the boundary.
