Taking Your Dog Out of the Boundary Area

NOTICE

Remove the dog collar device when taking your dog out of the boundary area.

Your dog will be reluctant to cross the boundary for walks or car rides when he is fully trained. You can use these methods to safely take your dog out of the boundary area. You can also turn off containment (Turning Off Containment).

  • Replace the dog collar device with a regular collar.

    You can put your dog in a car that is inside the boundary and drive out of the boundary.

  • Replace the dog collar device with a regular collar and leash.

    You can walk your dog out of the boundary and give a positive command at a specific boundary location. For example, say "OK" when you reach the end of the driveway or sidewalk. You should always leave the boundary with a leash at this location so your dog will associate leaving the boundary on a leash, at this location, and with a person. Initially, you may need to offer treats and praise to convince your dog to leave the boundary. If needed, you can carry your dog out of the boundary.
