Basic FAQs
What is the average time needed to train a dog?
The training time using an Innotek dog collar varies with each dog and each trainer. It will depend on what you are trying to train the dog to do, the trainers skill, and the type of dog being trained. If you are using an underground dog fence system, then the selected perimiter for your fencing system must be taken into consideration. You must allow the dog a few extra training sessions to compensate for a more complex underground dog fence border. The dog learns in small stages, his understanding is tested at each stage. On an average it takes 10 minutes twice a day for 2 weeks to train your dog. Please refer to your specific training video.
Will the correction harm my dog?
NO. The mild correction that your dog feels from his/her Innotek dog collar, PetSafe or SportDog collar, is designed to be undesirable so your dog will avoid it, yet is totally harmless and humane. It is comparable to a static shock a human will feel from walking on a carpet. What is the difference between water-resistant and waterproof?
A water-resistant PetSafe, SportDog or Innotek dog collar receiver can be worn in the rain, snow or other inclement weather. However it would be damaged if it is submerged in water.
-A waterproof PetSafe, SportDog or Innotek dog collar receiver can be worn when bathing or swimming. Being submerged in water will not harm the collar receiver. How long do the batteries last?

Why can't I leave the PetSafe, SportDog or Innotek dog collar receiver on my dog for more than 12 hours?
