The PetSafe® 900 m Series (Big Dog Deluxe Remote Trainer) Remote Trainers are comfortable for your pet and easy to use with an advanced digital display that tells you exactly what level of stimulation you are using.
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.
2. How old does a pet have to be before using the PetSafe® 350 m / 900 m Series Remote Trainers?
The system should only be used with pets who are over 6 months of age. If your pet is injured or its mobility is otherwise impaired, contact your veterinarian or professional trainer before use. Your pet should be able to learn basic obedience commands such as “Sit” or “Stay”.
3. Can I attach a lead to the Receiver Collar?
Do not attach a lead to the collar. This can result in pulling the Contact Points too tightly against your pet’s neck. Attach a lead to a separate, non-metallic collar or harness, making sure the extra collar does not put pressure on the Contact Points.
4. Once my pet is trained and has been obeying my commands, will he have to continue to wear the Receiver Collar?
Probably not. He may need to wear the Receiver Collar from time to time for reinforcement.
5. Is the Receiver Collar waterproof?
Yes. Both the 350 m/900 m Receiver Collars are waterproof.
6. Can I use the 350 m / 900 m Series Remote Trainers with more than
one pet?
Yes. An Add-A-Dog® Receiver Collar must be purchased to have a Two Dog System.
7. Can I use the PetSafe® 350 m / 900 m Series Remote Trainers on aggressive pets?
We do not recommend any of our products to be used on aggressive pets. We recommend you contact your local veterinarian or professional trainer to determine if your pet might be aggressive.
8. 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 eight seconds, the Remote Transmitter will time-out, and the Stimulation button must be released and pressed again.
9. What do I do if my pet’s neck becomes red and irritated?
This condition is due to the Contact Points irritating the skin. 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, replace Receiver Collar, and monitor the skin condition closely.
