Dog Training
You should research and investigate the training methods best suited for you, your dog, and your needs. This
manual provides some basic guidelines for training, but each dog has unique training needs.
When used properly, the Alpha training system is a very effective training tool to aid your dog in reaching its full
potential. The use of the training system should be part of an overall training program.
Begin training your dog on a leash, without the Alpha training system. You should train your dog how to heel, sit,
and come to you. After the dog understands these three basic commands, you can begin training with the dog
collar device and the leash. Finally, when the dog consistently obeys commands using the leash and collar, you
may be able to remove the leash to train with only the dog collar device.
Communication with the Collar
You should keep an unobstructed line of sight between your handheld device and the dog collar device to
produce the best communication signal. To achieve the best line-of-sight conditions, you should move to the
highest elevation point in your area (for example, on the top of a hill).
