12. Train Your Pup
Now it's time to bring out your pup and let him join
in on the fun! Training your dog is key to using the
SpotOn Fence; like learning to ride a bike, training takes
a little commitment but it can last a lifetime.
We recommend training your pup for about 15 minutes
a day for 2 weeks — that's how long it takes a dog, on
average, to get accustomed to the tones. Of course, all
dogs are different, so don't worry if it takes your pup a
little longer to learn! Keep your training sessions quick
and fun to avoid stressing out your pooch – or yourself.

Taking the time to train your pup correctly will ensure
your dog remains safe and carefree.
You can also schedule a complimentary remote training
session with one of our SpotOn expert trainers at
Training@SpotOnFence.com. We're happy to help
guide you and your pooch so you can get out there and
experience the freedom of living life unleashed.

HELPFUL HINTS:
1. Be sure your pup is fully
trained before leaving him
unsupervised outside.
2. If traveling with your fence,
make sure your pup is fully
trained before venturing to
new places.
3. Your pup's SpotOn collar
is waterproof to IP67
and choose the
standards. Before using it in
wet environments, inspect
the collar for nicks, cuts,
cracks, or other damage that
could enable water intrusion.
Rinse the collar with tap
water after exposure to
saltwater or pool water.

your pup is ready to
live life unleashed!
COMING INDOORS
When your pup has had enough for the day, remove the SpotOn collar
from your dog and plug it in. Do not shut the collar off — just plug it in
to the charger provided; this keeps your fence active so your pup won't
have to wait for the fence to load next time he wants to go out!
Removing the collar also improves battery runtime.
If you want to shut down, hold the center button for three seconds.
You will see "Shutdown?" on the display. Select "Yes" and the collar will
power down. When you turn it on again, it will need to reacquire GPS
connectivity.
