HOW TO ADD ANOTHER COLLAR TO MY SPORTDOG® FIELDTRAINER® 425X OR SPORTHUNTER® 825X REMOTE

Adding a Dog to Your SD-425 System

Before beginning the pairing process, you will need to program the remote transmitter to a multiple-dog mode. Modes allow you to change the function of the buttons. There are 2 multiple-dog modes, and both allow you to have static stimulation.

  • Choose Mode 3 if you want the ability to signal a tone to your dogs.
  • Choose Mode 4 if you want the ability to signal a vibration to your dogs.

For help on changing modes, visit HOW TO CHANGE THE MODES ON YOUR SPORTDOG® REMOTE TRANSMITTER.

After changing to a multiple-dog mode, each button on your remote transmitter will now control one collar.

If you already have a collar paired to your remote transmitter before changing modes, that collar will default to the upper button with the bump and will not need to be paired again.
