In all three methods you must take the dog’s receiver collar off. If you don’t take the collar off and you enter the correction zone of a house that has a Dog Guard fence, your dog will get a correction. It is important that you remove the collar instead of turning the fence off at the transmitter.

Method 1 - The Carry
Simply pick your dog up and carry him through the perimeter. Please only use this if you have a small dog and you can safely lift and carry him. Put the dog down once you have generously passed the barrier. Use the same maneuver when returning through the fence.

Method 2 - The Drive
Put your dog in the car and drive through. Much like the pick up method, but a little less strenuous for large hound owners.

Method 3 - Begin at the Beginning
From the day your fence is installed, follow the same route when taking your pet out of the yard, making sure to leave and enter the yard in the same spot each time. If this is done consistently before and during training, your pet will associate you, the leash, and the route as a safe means of leaving the yard.
