8. Frequently Asked Questions Will the Remote Training System be effective on my dog? • The Training System is designed to be a convenient and effective training device on all healthy breeds and sizes. However, it should not be used on aggressive dogs. Is the Remote Training System appropriate and humane? • Yes. The Training System is designed to get your dog's attention, not to punish it. However, the initial correction may startle your dog. What is meant by static correction? • We have all received a static shock at some point in our lives, such as when we walk barefoot across a carpeted floor and feel a small shock after touching a doorknob. Static shock does not hurt, but it does startle us. How long does my dog need to continue wearing the Pet Collar Unit? Once your dog is trained and has been obeying your commands, it does not have to continue to wear the Pet Collar Unit. However, you can consider reinforcing the training with the Pet Collar Unit from time to time. Can the Remote Training System be used on all dogs regardless of age? • Ideally, your dog should at least be 6 months old and should be able to recognize basic obedience commands such as "Sit" or "Stay" before using the Training System. 24 Frequently Asked Questions
