• Not for use with aggressive dogs. Do not use
this product if your dog is aggressive, or if
your dog is prone to aggressive behavior.
Aggressive dogs can cause severe injury and
even death to their owner and others. If you
are unsure whether this product is appropriate
for your dog, please consult your veterinarian
or certied trainer.
• Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by
an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries
according to the instructions.
• The PetSafe® VT-800 Remote Vibration Trainer
is not a toy. Keep away from the reach of
children. Use it only for its training purpose.

Please read and follow the instructions in this
manual. Proper t of the collar is important. A collar
worn for too long or made too tight on the pet’s
neck may cause skin damage. This is called bed
sores; it is also called decubitus ulcers or pressure
necrosis.
• Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than
12 hours per day.
• When possible reposition the collar on the pet’s
neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• Check the t to prevent excessive pressure; follow
the instructions in this manual.
• Never connect a lead to the electronic collar; it
will cause excessive pressure on the contacts.
• When using a separate collar for a lead, don’t
put pressure on the electronic collar.
• Wash the dog’s neck area and the contacts of the
collar weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash
or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the
collar until the skin has healed.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see
your veterinarian.

These steps will help keep your pet safe and
comfortable. Millions of pets are comfortable
while they wear stainless steel contacts. Some
pets are sensitive to contact pressure. You
may nd after some time that your pet is very
tolerant of the collar. If so, you may relax some
of these precautions. It is important to continue
daily checks of the contact area. If redness or
sores are found, discontinue use until the skin
has fully healed.
• The PetSafe® VT-800 Remote Vibration
Trainer must be used only on healthy dogs.
We recommend that you take your dog to a
veterinarian before using the collar if he is not
in good health.
• Do not shave the pet’s neck as this may
increase the risk of skin irritation.
• You should not make the collar any more tight
than is required for good contact. A collar that
is too tight will increase the risk of pressure
necrosis in the contact area.

Fit the Receiver Collar
Important: The proper t and placement of your Receiver Collar
is important for effective operation. The Vibration Points must have
direct contact with your dog’s skin on the underside of his neck.
Please refer to page 3 for Important Safety Information.
To assure a proper t, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the Receiver Collar is
turned off.
2. Start with your dog standing
comfortably (3A).
3. Place the Receiver Collar on your dog’s neck
close to the ears. Center the Vibration Points
underneath your dog’s neck, touching the
skin (3B). Note: It is sometimes
necessary to trim the
hair around the
Vibration Points to
make sure that contact
is consistent.
4. Check the tightness
of the Receiver Collar
by inserting one nger
between the collar and
your dog’s neck (3C).

TRAINING GUIDE
EN
Test the Remote Trainer
We recommend you experience rst-hand how the PetSafe® VT-800
Remote Vibration Trainer functions. Always begin at the lowest level
and increase the intensity up to your personal comfort level.
1. Place your ngers on both Vibration Points of the Receiver Collar.
2. Hold the Transmitter approximately 0.6 m from the Receiver and
position the Level Select Switch to 1. Press the Top Button (light
blue). At this level you may not feel the quick on/off Vibration
Stimulation followed by the controlled Vibration Stimulation while
holding the button down.
3. Increase the intensity until the sensation begins to feel uncomfortable.
Note: When set to Level 0, the LEDs on the Receiver Collar will
light up but no Stimulation will be delivered.
Find the Best Vibration
Stimulation Level for Your Pet
Important: Always start at the lowest level and work your way up.
The PetSafe® VT-800 Remote Vibration Trainer gives the dog quick
on/off Vibration Stimulation. The controlled Vibration Stimulation
continues only if you determine it is necessary to hold down the
Transmitter’s Top Button (light blue).
Once you have placed the Receiver Collar on your pet, it is time to
nd the Vibration Stimulation Level that is best for him. This is called
the Recognition Level.
FR
NL
ES
IT
DE
www.petsafe.net 17
A slight change in your pet’s behaviour, such as looking around in
curiosity, scratching at his collar, or icking his ears, indicates the
EN
Recognition Level that is best for him.
Follow the steps below to nd your pet’s Recognition Level:
1. Starting at 1 on the Level Select Switch, press the Vibration
Stimulation Top Button (light blue) continuously for 1 to 2 seconds.
FR
2. If your pet shows no reaction, repeat the Vibration Stimulation
level several times before moving up to the next level.
3. YOUR PET SHOULD NOT VOCALIZE OR PANIC WHEN
RECEIVING VIBRATION STIMULATION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE
STIMULATION LEVEL IS TOO HIGH AND YOU NEED TO GO
NL
BACK TO THE PREVIOUS LEVEL AND REPEAT THE PROCESS.
4. Move up through the Vibration Stimulation levels until your pet
reliably responds to Vibration Stimulation.
5. If your pet continues to show no response at Level 15, check the t
ES
of the Receiver Collar. If your pet has long or thick hair, your pet’s
hair may need to be trimmed around the Vibration Points.
Do not shave the pet’s neck as this may increase

General Tips
Introducing the Remote Trainer: Introduce your PetSafe® collar
when your dog graduates from puppy stage and understands basic
obedience commands. PetSafe® collars should only be used on pets
over 6 months of age.
Avoiding a “Collar Wise” dog: Try to avoid letting your
dog become “collar wise”, obeying only when wearing the
PetSafe® collar. Similarly, avoid letting the dog learn to obey
only when seeing the Transmitter in your hand. This is easy to
prevent (see “Remain the Leader” in the following “Dog Training
Recommendations” section).
18www.petsafe.netwww.petsafe.net19
Training Sessions & Determining Vibration Stimulation
Levels: Keep your training sessions short and watch your dog’s reac-
tion - your pet will tell you what level of Vibration Stimulation is appropriate to use and when to release the button. Please refer to “Find the
Best Vibration Stimulation Level for Your Pet” for additional information.
Stopping Unwanted Behaviour: When stopping unwanted
behaviour, it is suggested to use higher levels of Vibration
Stimulation - the pet should be convinced that his unacceptable
actions (not you) caused the annoying sensation to happen.
Dogs First Learn One Command: Focus on learning one
command before moving on to another. When teaching a command
like “heel”, “come”, “sit”, or “down”, many trainers recommend using
low levels of Vibration Stimulation. The dog quickly learns to turn off or
completely avoid the unpleasant sensation.
Reinforcing Known Commands: To reinforce commands
the dog already knows, it is suggested to use medium Vibration
Stimulation levels. This teaches the dog to respect instructions by
always listening and obeying.
Note: Using praise or treats to reward the correct response is great
for encouraging the dog, but it is suggested you and your family
members always remain the dog’s leader.
Dog Training Recommendations
When Training Begins: Training starts the moment you bring your
puppy home. While it will not be ready for the PetSafe® products until
the dog has matured, you should begin basic training immediately.
Remain the Leader: Stop your dog from becoming “collar
wise”. An easy solution known as “Collar Conditioning” will help
prevent the dog from listening only when wearing the Receiver and
disobeying when he is not wearing it. First, t the Receiver on your
dog. Second, immediately take your dog outside or do something
he enjoys; don’t activate the Receiver. Let the dog wear it during
non-training sessions. Your dog should believe wearing the Receiver
Collar can also result in having fun. It should not be perceived as
punishment. Place the Receiver Collar on and off the dog at various
www.petsafe.net 19
EN
FR
NL
ES
IT
DE
times for short or longer periods to make wearing it a normal
routine. Similarly, don’t let the dog learn to obey only when he sees
EN
the Transmitter. Also carry the Transmitter, but don’t use it all the time.
How long should this process take? Professional trainers’ opinions
vary from a few days to a couple of weeks.
Focus on the Dog: Professional trainers’ opinions vary on some
FR
issues, but all users of remote training systems strongly recommend
watching your dog, not the transmitter, when training. PetSafe®
products are specically designed to make this task simple. It is easy
and you should nd the point where your dog rst perceives the
Vibration Stimulation. See “Find the Best Vibration Stimulation Level
NL
for Your Pet”.
“Good Dog” in the Home or Outside: Stopping unwanted
behaviour is easy using the PetSafe® Remote Trainers. Your dog can
be good in and out of the house. Remember to be fair to the dog
ES
and remove temptation whenever possible.

Veuillez lire et respecter les consignes décrites dans ce
manuel. Il est important que le collier soit bien ajusté. Un
collier porté de façon excessive ou trop serré peut irriter
la peau de l’animal. Ce type de blessure s’appelle une
escarre de décubitus ou une nécrose cutanée.
• Évitez de laisser le collier sur le chien plus de 12
heures par jour.
• Si possible, réajustez le collier toutes les 1 à
2 heures.
• Vériez l'ajustement pour éviter une pression
excessive; suivez les instructions de ce manuel.
• N’attachez jamais de laisse au collier électronique
car cela exercerait une pression excessive sur les
contacteurs.
• Lorsque vous utilisez un autre collier avec une laisse,
veillez à ce qu’il n’exerce pas de pression sur le
collier électronique.
• Lavez le cou du chien et les contacts du collier
chaque semaine avec un chiffon humide.
• Examinez quotidiennement la zone de contact pour
détecter toute rougeur ou plaie.
• En cas de rougeur ou de plaie, arrêtez d’utiliser le
collier jusqu’à la guérison.
• Si l’irritation persiste au-delà de 48 heures, consultez
votre vétérinaire.
Pour obtenir des informations supplémentaires sur les
escarres de décubitus et la nécrose cutanée, consultez
