This mode teaches your dog to associate the tones with food delivery and associate other behaviors
(barking, pawing the machine) with an “Uh-Oh” tone.
Calm Me Mode: This mode continues to play the series of sequences from Teach Me mode, however,
when the dog barks or moves the machine, the “Uh-Oh” tone restarts the sequence and delays the delivery
of food. This mode teaches the dog that they will be rewarded for quiet behavior.
