Innotek Free Spirit Advanced Trainer ()

The safe, smart, easy way to train your dog. This system features an easy to use transmitter that delivers seven levels of momentary or continuous stimulation or tone with a 300 yard range.This Innotek electronic dog collar is among the safest, most humane and effective training products you can buy. Used properly, the collar\'s electronic stimulus serves as a distraction that your dog will find undesirable. By obeying, your dog quickly learns to shut off the stimulus, thus gaining confidence in response to your commands. Like most Innotek training products, this collar has variable stimulation levels. This feature allows you to use the level that best matches your dog\'s temperament.The hand-held transmitter features seven preset levels of momentary or continuous stimulation and a tone only button. The water-resistant transmitter has a large, easy to read keypad and a digital display.Continuous mode delivers stimulation for as long as you hold the button, up to ten seconds. To prevent over-correction, there is a ten second lockout. Momentary mode delivers a brief, pre-measured tap. The tone button delivers an audible tone that reinforces your dog\'s learning without stimulation.The water-resistant receiver box has an internal antenna, low battery indicator, and houses the probes which deliver the stimulation. Two sets of probes are provided so you can use the collar with dogs of varying coat thickness.Kit includes:transmitter with digital displaytraining collar with rechargeable NiMH battery receiverbattery chargercollar probestest light6-volt alkaline batteries for transmitterprobe wrenchinstructional video.Training TipsWatch the included video to get the basics for training your dog properly with a remote trainer.Always praise your dog for good behavior.Teach him what the commands mean before introducing the collar as a reinforcement tool.Keep training sessions brief, about ten minutes of training and then a rest or play period of at least equal length.Dogs learn through repetition. You may have better success if you can elicit an undesired behavior when you can anticipate it. For example, if the dog misbehaves and jumps on visitors, have someone come in and out of the front door several times over a half-hour period. You\'ll be expecting it and will be ready to teach your dog the right behavior.Always end a training session on a positive note. Let the dog have success. This way he\'ll look forward to the next session.Training should be fun for both you and your dog. Never train when you are angry. If you get frustrated during the training, stop and come back to it later. Your dog will learn better when you are both relaxed.Innotek recommends your dog be at least six months old before starting a remote training program. You will be asking your dog to concentrate for periods of time and to remember what you have taught. Young puppies do not necessarily have the required mental development or attention span for these activities.The go
