Q: Are there any age or size limits my pet must be in order to be trained?

A: First off, your pet should already be well adjusted to their home environment before training begins. While there are no minimum or maximum size limitations, it's recommened your pet be at least eight weeks old.

Q: Will the correction harm my pet?

A: The correction used is harmless, safe, and humane -- the shock is just enough to effectively startle the dog. The amount of energy used in correctoin is less than that produced by a carpet's static shock.

Q: Can I use an underground dog fence for my aggressive dog?

A: Absolutely not -- we will not sell or install an electric dog fence for an aggressive dog, unless our product will be used in conjuction with a pre-existing wooden or chain-link fence. We do not recommend using corrections on an aggressive dog and instead suggest you ask your vet for training recommendations.

Q: How will I know when the batteries need replacing?

A: Your battery life varies depending on how often your dog tests the boundary and what your correction level is set it. In most cases, the battery will last from 6 to 9 months. When low, an indicator light on your receiver will flash to alert you that it's time to change batteries.
