• My system doesn’t seem to be working properly. What can I do before calling Customer Care?

  Check the batteries. Ensure that the four 4 D-cell alkaline batteries in the base and the one (1) 12v alkaline battery (23A) in the hand-held remote are charged. Try different batteries from another package. Check that the remote and base are on the same channel settings. Test your kibble/treats to see that it freely passes through the disk opening. If using semi-moist treats, try using a dry treat or kibble.

• My Treat & Train™ is not dispensing treats. What should I check?

  Check that the food bin within the treat dispenser has at least one cup of kibble/treats. The unit will not function properly without enough kibble.

  
  Make sure the kibble disc used with your treat and train is the appropriate size. If the kibble or treats will not fit through the disc holes, treats cannot be dispensed.

  
  If using semi-moist treats, try a dry treat or kibble. Some semi-moist treats could be too moist and stick to each other which prevents to food disc from delivering a treat reliably.

  閉じる
• Can this be used outdoors?

  Yes, the Treat & Train™ is portable and can be used in gardens, parks or other outdoor areas where you wish to work on your dog’s training.

• How hard is it to set up?

  Set up is very easy! Simply insert batteries into the base and remote, select the channel of operation, find and insert the disc that fits the kibble you’ll be using and load the food bin with 200ml - 500ml of treats or food. The control panel has advanced settings you won’t need until later in down/stay training. Be sure to review the set up steps in the quick start guide before using your Treat & Train™.

• Is the training collar waterproof?

  Yes.

• My dog might paw the food dispenser. Will that be a problem?

  The Treat & Train™ is fairly rugged and can withstand moderate amounts of pawing and nudging. When using the Treat & Train™, you will specifically reward your dog when he is standing with all four feet on the floor and avoid rewarding him for pawing the food dispenser. As a result, all dogs being formally trained with the Treat & Train™ learn to receive treats without pawing the machine. Dogs not yet trained, however, may try to open the food dispenser. As long as the behaviour of pawing or nudging the machine is not rewarded, this behaviour will eventually disappear.
