ii. Instead of a cell phone connection at the beginning, you may interact with your puppy with a bone in your hand to familiarise the pet with his new toy so he doesn't get scared when it moves.
iii. When the device is connected to your phone, you may leave some time for him to be familiar with Wickedbone by starting with soft actions, i.e. nod head, lift head, etc. Meanwhile, you may customise the setting of “speed, acceleration, and swerve” to be “Slow”.
