wearing the dog collar device, but does not obey commands
when the device is removed. You should follow these tips to
prevent this behavior.
• Begin training the dog without using the Delta XC training
system to correct the dog
• Turn off the dog collar device and put it on the dog during
initial training.

using it to correct the dog.
• Turn off the dog collar device and put it on the dog outside of
your training sessions.
This allows the dog to get used to the device and helps to
prevent the dog from associating the presence of the device
with training or obedience.
• Reward the dog with praise whenever the dog obeys a
command.
