Frequently Asked Questions
Is the stimulation safe and
humane?
While the stimulation is unpleasant, it is harmless to your
pet. Electronic training devices require interaction and
training from the owner to achieve desired results.
How old does my pet have to be
before using the PetSafe Remote
Trainer?
Your pet should be able to recognize basic obedience
commands such as “Sit” or “Stay”. The Receiver Collar may
be too large for pets under 8 pounds.
Once my pet is trained and has
been obeying my commands,
will he have to continue to wear
the Receiver Collar?
Probably not. You may need to reinforce training with the
Receiver Collar from time to time.
Is the Receiver Collar
waterproof?
Yes. When changing the battery, be sure to keep the area
free of dirt and debris.
Can I use the Remote Trainer
with more than one pet?
Yes, you can use the Remote Trainer on any pet you want to
train. If you would like to train more than one pet at a time,
you will have to buy multiple systems.
Can I use the Remote Trainer on
aggressive dogs or stop my dog
from being aggressive?
We do not recommend any of our products to be used on
aggressive dogs. If you are unsure if your dog is aggressive,
please consult your veterinarian or a certifi ed trainer.
Will I get exactly 100 yards of
range with the Remote Trainer?
The range of the Remote Trainer will vary according to
terrain, weather, vegetation, as well as transmission from
other radio devices.
How long can I continuously
deliver stimulation to my pet?
The maximum amount of time you can press the
Stimulation Button and deliver stimulation to your
pet continuously is 8 seconds. After this, the Remote
Transmitter will time-out, and the Stimulation Button must
be released and pressed again.
What do I do if my pet’s neck
becomes red and irritated?
Discontinue use of the Receiver Collar for a few days. If the
condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
Once the skin returns to normal, monitor your pet’s skin
condition closely.
Can I place the Receiver Collar
on another collar?
No. The collar used for this unit has a sleeve to hold the
Antenna.
Can I attach a leash to the
Receiver Collar?
No. This can result in pulling the Contact Points too tightly
against your pet’s neck. Use a separate non-metallic collar
placed above the Receiver Collar to attach a leash.
How often do I need to replace
the batteries?
If the Receiver Collar is left on continuously, the battery will
last about 2 weeks. We recommend you turn the Receiver
Collar off when it is not in use. The 9-volt battery in the
Remote Transmitter will last about 2-3 months, depending
on the frequency of use.
