Q - What is the maximum
area "PLUS" containment system will enclose? A - You can connect up to 1200 feet of wire to the containment transmitter. This
is enough wire to enclose approximately 2 acres. This unit will only work within the
confines of your yard - it cannot be operated "off property".

on and off property

Q - What training, if any,
should my dog know before I begin obedience training with my "PLUS" system? A - Training with the PLUS system operates using the same three basic principles
used in all canine training and behavior modification: correction, redirection and reward.
Therefore it is extremely helpful, if not imperative, that your dog understands the basics
of obedience training before more sophisticated electronic training begins.
Q - During the initial
training stages, can I train my dog using the containment transmitter and the remote
transmitter at the same time? A - NO. The dog needs to be comfortable with the containment system first. He
needs to be fully trained on the containment system, and that he is staying in the yard no
matter what the distraction.
Q - Which should I use
first, the containment system transmitter or the remote transmitter? A - It is highly recommended that you train your dog to the containment system
first.
Q - Once I train my dog to
the containment system, how much time should pass before I use the remote transmitter? A - This will vary from breed to breed, however a good rule of thumb is to wait
until you have removed the last containment system training flag.
Q - Once my dog is fully
trained to the containment boundary, can I give him a correction via the remote
transmitter at the same time he is receiving the correction from the containment
transmitter? A - Yes, but realize that the receiver collar does not differentiate which mode
the system is in. Either way, the dog will receive a correction for being too close to the
boundary or for a bad-behavior if you so desire.
Q - Can I use the remote
transmitter to train my dog outside the containment area? A -NO. The receiver collar must be within the fence
boundary and the remote transmitter must be within 200 feet from the containment
transmitter.
