PetSafe 305 Series Remote Trainers

Imagine what it would be like to walk with your dog in a traffic-free area without a leash and without constant worry that he'll run off. That's the difference a remote trainer will make in the relationship between you and your dog. A remote trainer like the 305 Series allows you to spend less time training so you can spend more time enjoying your dog.

An electronic collar, used correctly, can help you teach your dog to obey your commands quickly and easily. The 305 Series has 16 correction levels (8 low and 8 high), plus a tone-only function. Its transmitter has a 100-yard range - that's the length of a whole football field!

The 305 Series features close-range training in two sizes - one for medium or small dogs and one for big dogs. Little Dog 305 is for dogs 8-40 lbs; Big Dog 305 is for dogs over 40 lbs.

Features include positive tone to acknowledge acceptable behaviors and instant +2 boost to temporarily increase static (will not increase above 8 high limit) when needed. Easy-read digital display shows correction level and battery status at a glance.

Using this system consistently and correctly, any basic obedience command can be taught and reinforced plus many unwanted behaviors that your pet exhibits can be corrected.

Important: The Remote Trainer has a range up to 100 yards. Hold the Remote Transmitter in a horizontal position away from your body to achieve optimum range. Terrain, weather, vegetation, transmission from other radio devices, and other factors will affect the maximum range.

Includes: waterproof adjustable receiver collar (2.2 oz for Little/Medium Dogs and 3.3 oz for Big Dogs), weatherproof remote digital display transmitter, two 3V batteries, wrist strap, test light tool, and instructions. Replacement 3V Lithium Collar Battery (item 13120) sold separately.

• Correct one behavior or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast with training, your pet may become confused.
• Be consistent. Correct your pet every time he misbehaves.
• Unless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your pet from situations in which he has a history of misbehaving. However, setting up a situation as a training session can dramatically improve your chances of success.
• If your pet reacts to the tones by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate behavior, such as the "sit" command.
• Pets should be at least 6 months old before using the trainer.
• Only let responsible family members use the trainer. It is not a toy!
• Other pets in hearing range may be affected by the training tones. Therefore, training sessions should be conducted out of hearing range of other pets.
• Never use the remote trainer to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behavior. We recommend you contact your local veterinarian or professional trainer to determine if your pet might be aggressive.

The Remote Trainer has 8 Low and 8 High Stimulation Levels. This allows you to choose the stimulation that is best for your pet.

Once you have placed the Receiver Collar on your pet, it is time to find the Stimulation Level that is best for him. This is called the Recognition Level.

A slight change in your pet's behavior, such as looking around in curiosity, scratching at his collar, or flicking his ears, indicates the Recognition Level that is best for him.

Follow the steps below to find your pet's Recognition Level:

• Starting at Level 1 Low on the Digital Display, press the Stimulation Button (yellow) continuously for 1 to 2 seconds. Note: When the Stimulation Button is held down for 12 consecutive seconds, the Transmitter will "time-out", and you must release and press the button again before additional stimulation can be delivered.
• If your pet shows no reaction, repeat the Stimulation Level several times before moving up to the next level.
• YOUR PET SHOULD NOT VOCALIZE OR PANIC WHEN RECEIVING STIMULATION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE STIMULATION LEVEL IS TOO HIGH AND YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS LEVEL AND REPEAT THE PROCESS.
• Move up through the Stimulation Levels until your pet reliably responds to the stimulation.
• If your pet continues to show no response at Level 8 High, check the fit of the Receiver Collar. If your pet has long or thick hair, contact our Customer Care Center to obtain a longer set of Contact Points. Then go back to #1 and repeat the process. If this still does not yield any results, your pet's hair will need to be trimmed around the Contact Points.
