PetSafe Treat & Train
Remote Reward Dog Trainer
Dogs repeat behaviours that are rewarded. The Treat & Train Remote Reward Dog Trainer is a remote-controlled reward system that uses positive reinforcement for training dogs to behave at home and perform better in competition.
Rewarding desired behaviour is invaluable in helping redirect a dog’s focus away from barking at the door, jumping on guests and begging at the table. It can also be used to train behaviours from down/stay to coming when called and for speciality skills or agility training.

- Global leader in pet products for nearly 30 years

Featured Training Guide
Featuring a Training Guide and Target Wand, basic commands can be taught easily with rewards, making training short and hassle free. Included with the unit are an instruction manual and DVD with the step-by-step training program as well as common mistakes to avoid. For best results watch the DVD one step at a time and refer to the instruction manual to quickly review what was covered.
Training is divided into five games:
- Game 1: Tone means a treat is coming
- Game 2: Targeting with the nose
- Game 3: Lie down and stay at a specific spot
- Game 4: Race to the rug or special spot on cue
- Game 5: Lie down and stay at a specific spot even in high-distraction situations

funktioniert so, wie beschrieben, Targetstick ist recht empfindlich; perfekt wre eine Auslsefunktion durch den Targetstick selbs
Overall a good product although the treats tend to get stuck even if the size is too small and insufficient treats inside.
This little gem is brilliant for agility training and basic training, i use mine all the time for my stop contact work both my dogs picked up very quickly how it works and i would definately recommend
When I ordered it I was worried there would be a problem with it working (info from a previous review) but honestly it works great! My dog is loving this trainer. As soon as I bring it he gets excited. Great tool for teaching calm behaviour and separation. I do recommend this product. The downside it’s a bit pricey.
Great training tool that works exactly as advertised. If it lasts through several outdoor seasons, I’ll be very happy. If it does not, I’ll be less happy but will likely buy another for the next dog.
I have so far been very happy with this! We are about halfway through the DVD and am looking forward to continuing to work though it. It is pricy but if you have a dog that has some behavior issues to work though it is a great tool.
This product is everything the description stated. We use the trainer while working the weave poles. As soon as I see he is commited to completing the last pole, I click and he hears the beep and knows a treat will be waiting for him. He is focused and looks forward rather than watching my hand with a treat.
Buena compra, mi perro y yo estamos encantados. Buena calidad y va muy bien.
The big plus point though is the additional training options it gives you. I have a 4 yr old high energy border collie and the ability for me to be in one place and the treat to be dispensed in another is immense. For example, send aways training was impossible without an additional person. With the treat trainer it is easy – it took the dog a couple of minutes to learn the routine and a couple of days of 5 minutes training and I could send away to the trainer and not even give a treat. He just waits. I can keep him there as long as I want just by giving him another treat if it looks like his attention is wandering. Training for front door answering was easy – the unit is in the kitchen; the door bell rings, I press the remote, the treat trainer beeps, the dog now goes to the kitchen and gets his treat 🙂
Support material is very good but after a while I found with a bit of creativity I found I could create my own training exercises using the trainer.
I have been training dogs for dog competition sports for over 10 years. I have been using this product often using Zuke’s mini Naturals primarily for getting my dogs to gain confidence in my handling them at a distance during Agility and Obedience. Have only had to clear a jam once, and that was quick. It always delivers 1 or 2 treats as needed.
I’ve been using this after it was recommended to me by my dog trainer, i’m currently working on my dogs separation anxiety and its been amazing! Such a clever little machine and the information booklet / DVD provided is faultless
I haven’t used it alot yet but it came highly recommended to me so… I am hopeful.
Das englische Heft in Papierform wre garnicht ntig, eine PDF in allen Sprachen im Internet wrde ja reichen.
Dieser Futterautomat ist echt super! Wir nutzen ihn vorwiegegend frs Agility aber auch im Alltag ist er ein toller Untersttzer. Die beiliegende DVD beinhaltet viele verschiedene Trainingsideen fr den Alltag. Er funktioniert einwandfrei. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen. Bestes Produkt auf dem Markt.
This little machine is AWESOME. it was super easy to set up and took my dogs and puppies about 5 seconds to figure it out. Easy to set up and the training video that comes with it is great too
Training my impulsive dog who hates when we leave the house. When he got over his fear of it, he began to come to me and nudge me to treat him. The key is to find treats that fit. My trainer recommended this and helped him become accustomed to it. Now when we leave him he waits for his treat when we leave.
Le produit est trs utile pour pratiquer la distance et l’autotomie de mes chiens en agilit.
Great for the kind of training that we are using it for. Dogs love it and it is super easy to use.
I absolutely love this! It’s great to keep your dogs quiet in the car with. My Jaxon would bounce from window to window barking at everything he saw, and my Briar would whine and cry the entire time we were driving. Even going short distances was a pain in the Jax (that’s his nickname). But it’s kind of hard to train them to be quiet while I’m trying to drive! This thing is amazing – all I have to do is push the button on the remote and it rewards them for being quiet. They caught on very quickly and now driving is so much easier. It’s also great to lure them into my bedroom with when somebody rings the doorbell. I’m going to recommend this to all my clients. Thank you Pet Safe!

Scaredy Dog Pet Sitting and Dog Training
What a blast ! My dog and I have had hours of fun playing games involving this treat dispenser! Be sure to watch the DVD that comes with it for more great ideas. Worth every penny!
I really liked how simple it was to teach my dog. If she did the agility exercise correctly, she got a treat; otherwise she didn’t. If nothing came out, she would stare at me with this questioning look. Didn’t take her long to figure it out. Also, it was easy to set up and easy to use. The Treat & Train is a bit pricey, but worth the price. I recommend this product.
i like it very much.
I use it to train my young dog.
Love it !not my first T&T . I had one of the originals . Fast delivery , as described .
Works but not great. I use a small kibble, nature’s variety, instinct. Seems to just spin around the edge with the last like 10 kibble pieces. Also only the loudest sound works. Unless I am significantly deaf, I cannot hear the other two settings.
zur Hunde Ausbildung im Agility , sehr gut um vieles damit zu erlerne
Allows me to reward from a distance from theco tact obstacles. I can be behind, ahead or lateral and still reward her for correct contact performance. Unlike tossing treats where I need to be close or throwing a toy where I may accidentally throw it when she missed the contact I can push the button from far away and only if she stopped her dogwalk or hit her running aframe. Bonus is the tone making her hit.
Occasionally the unit can jam depending on the type of food being used, but opening the unit and using your hand to manually rotate the mechanism will easily clear the jam.
The unit is fairly dog proof. My dog is very skilled at extracting food from various containers, He is able to get into this unit if left alone, but luckily he doesn’t damage it in the process.
When I want to make the unit more secure (e.g. when I leave the room so I can use the remote from a different room), I put the unit into a case which prevents the food storage door from opening.
Richtig tolles Gert! Der Kauf hat sich gelohnt. Automat funktioniert sehr gut und ist auch leicht zu reinige
Unfortunately delivered without the remote control battery, otherwise I am finding it excellent all my five dogs love it!
Brilliant for agility training especially as I can’t run! Sturdy, perfect for distance training
2. If your machine seems slow/weak and has a hard time rotating, get it replaced. My second machine is a dream compared to the first model I received.
1. Like another review stated, use a dremel and remove the outside lip of the treat dispenser circles. It isn’t pretty but it works. I attached a photo of what I did to mine — I can use any type of treat that fits through the hole now! Sometimes the kibble builds up like at the bottom of the photo without that edge, but that won’t happen as long as you keep it semi-full. 🙂
Absolutely love this after getting a replacement and fixing the edge. It’s SO much fun!!
Works exactly as expected. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because my puppy does not respond as shown in the YouTube videos. She is smart, but hasn’t made the connection between touching her nose to the target and receiving a treat.
Been using it for a few days now and is grea
Leider ist die Bedienungsanleitung und CD nur in ENGLISCHER Sprache 🙁
Bei den zwei beigefgten Scheiben (fr die Gre der Futterbrocken) wnsche ich mir noch eine mit noch kleineren ffnungen.
Tiene todo lo que esperaba de l. Por decir algo si los premios son grandes se atascan pero eligiendo el tamao de premio adecuado va fenomenal.
Trotz des hohen Preises lohnt sich das Produkt, vor allem da gnstigere Alternativen fehlen. Meine Hunde liebt die Arbeit mit diesem Futterautomaten. Jedoch kommt nicht immer bei bettigen der Fernbedienung ein Leckerchen raus, was sehr schade ist. Dennoch wrde ich dies Produkt weiter empfehlen.
Simply amazing product. I couldn’t have survived the last month of raising a puppy with out this machine. It allows you to train in a way that cannot be done by a human.
So far so good. Never jammed using Orijen Puppy kibbles so far. The only drawback is quite noisy.
a bit noisy, a little slow to treat, but love it! fun teaching the dogs new things!
Mit dem PetSafe haben wir ein Werkzeug, dass fr unseren Hund spannender ist, als unsere Gste.
Die Frequenz der Futtergabe haben wir langsam verringert und mittlerweile kann unsere Hndin entspannt auf ihrer Decke liegen und vor sich hin dsen, wenn wir Besuch haben.
Ich habe das Gert zum Running Contact Aufbau gekauft, ich nutze also nur die Funktion des direkten Auslsens und ich muss schon sagen, dass dieses Gert allein dabei um Welten besser ist als das Trixiegert. Ich nutze ausschlielich sehr kleine Leckerlie, bei dem Gert von Trixie kamen oft viel zu viele oder gar keine Leckerlies mehr und stndig musste man die Einstellungen ndern, damit annhernd die Menge an Leckerlie heraus kommt, die man bentigt.
Beim MM hingegen kommen immer Leckerlie raus und auch nie mehr als drei, also genau so wie ich es mir erhofft hatte.
Ich habe das Gert jetzt seit Anfang des Jahres und nutze es seitdem mindestens dreimal wchentlich und bin sehr zufrieden. Ich nutze es inzwischen auch fr andere Zwecke z.B. zur Ablage auf Distanz und unter Ablenkung.
Natrlich ein stolzer Preis, aber bei regelmiger Nutzung lohnt sich der Kauf wirklich!
Good item, does what it says on the box and even comes with a DVD.
Der Manners Minder Treat & Train ist fester Bestandteil meines Trainings geworden und praktisch unverzichtbar.
Ich benutze ihn hauptschlich im Hundesport und bin begeistert.
Er ist qualitativ hochwertig gebaut und hlt auch kurzen “Einbruchsversuchen” durch einen Hund gut stand. Jedoch lasse ich meine Hunde nicht unbeobachtet mit dem Gert. Er ist leicht und einfach zu bedienen und auch der Batteriewechsel ist schnell erledigt. Man bentigt dafr kein extra Werkzeug.
Auch die Reinigung ist durch die herausnehmbaren Scheiben sehr einfach und schnell!
Der T&T ist eine Bereicherung im Training und mit etwas Kreativitt vielseitig einsetzbar!
Seit der Pet Safe in der Nhe ist, klappt das Training noch besser. Die DVD ist gut verstndlich und es sind viele Tips enthalten. Die Gefahr besteht nur das der Automat zu spt wieder abtrainiert wird. Also daran denken ihn auch mal im Schrank zu lassen.
Man hat viele Mglichkeiten ihn einzustellen. Die Fernbedienung funktioniert auch bei recht weiter Entfernung (15 Meter)
Ich nutze ihn im Hundesport und er hlt auch mal Regen oder Dreck aus.
Die Batterien am Besten gleich mitbestellen – sind nicht enthalten.
Ich habe ihn bisher nur mit Trockenfutter genutzt und die ffnung lsst auch etwas grere Brocken durch (1 cm).
This is my dog’s FAVORITE thing. I was surprised since he is a cautious, noise sensitive dog, but he loved this thing from day 1. Any treat that comes out of this thing seems to become more valuable than a treat delivered by hand. I just use regular kibble and he goes wild for it. We initially got it to get him used to the idea of being rewarded from somewhere other than my body, but now we just use it because it finds it so rewarding. Highly recommend.
Love it, Love it. Love it. Buy it. Buy it. Buy it. Easy to use. Easy to understand. The whole program that is set up with this treat and train is outstanding. It is well done. Explanation are easy to understand and given in several different ways.If you read the directions, watch the video and read the manual training your dog is easy. If you clean it and take care of it it works, no problems.
Yes, it is working well. Sometimes it gets jammed and the dog gets a “jackpot” but, on the whole, it’s a useful training tool. I am using it to keep each Border Collie quiet in its crate while I run the other in Agility
Dr Sophia Yin was an absolute genius. Great quality product. Training video and book are so easy and my diff progressed through the training wonderfully.
Habe mir aufgrund guten Bewertungen den Treat & Train gekauft und wurde nicht enttuscht! Das Gert ist super und funktioniert tadellos! Die Lieferung war sehr schnell! Einfach Top!
Has really helped with bad doorbell behavior. Going through the training is essential. DVD guide is wonderful. I’ve tried two different kinds of kibble. The unit jams often, but is pretty easy to clear. I do find the unit a little loud. However, it has accomplished what I needed. Thank you.
Works very well for distance training. Just be careful that you don’t stick with it too long on any single skill as you and your dog may have issues fading it later. It would be nice if the remote used AAA batteries, instead of a hard-to-find size but the battery specialty stores carry them when the local Walmart doesn’t.
Love this training gadget. Am a professional trainer, and I find it to be a really valuable tool! I gave it only 4 stars due to the fact that it seems to jam more often than it should…like several times per training session. 🙁 But, for the good it’s doing otherwise, I give it a really good rating.
Love this to keep my adhd dog busy. After some training, he will sit for an hour or more looking at the treat and train. It keeps him out of trouble when I need a break! I plan to continue training to get more out of this product but I love it!
This is an awesome training aid, currently use it for focus training as well for object challenge. Dogs love the feed back. The range is suitable is well made, and price is ok. The item arrived on schedule and it is as advertised, the only confusion was the learn after the fact batteries were not include but that is inconsequential, I will recommend this product to anyone who would like to train your pet.
I actually love this product but due to difficulties and the remote breaking twice and only after using it twice I will rate it a 4. Customer service (Petsafe) was excellent and shipped out a new unit, however it took me awhile to figure out the manufacturer as it is not listed anywhere on the product :/ The dogs love it they respond to it. I train dogs and have used it for target training, dogs that bark at the door to teach manners, and overall obedience from anywhere in the area. It has various sounds and silent which you can alert with a remote to dispense. I like that it has the variety as with some fearful dogs they are sound sensitive and they will respond to the sound of the dispensing treat. Overall great product and have recommended and has been purchased by several friends!
Pros:
– Dog doesn’t inhale entire dinner in 10 seconds
– Can be used for training
– Batteries last a decent amount of time
– Low cost compared to other timed feeders
Cons:
– Battery operation is nice, but it would be great to have a corded option as well
– It will jam on occasion, although I’m sure it depends on the food.
Really good and helps train from a distance. Can be used at any stage of training.
It is everything that I needed.
The range for the remote is wonderful – works throughout out 2400 Sq ft house.
I have had no issues with kibble/treats jamming (I just use the larger disk provided), and I’m trolled with the distance training possibilities.
Excellent buy!
That said, I’m impressed with the kit itself – the treat dispenser works well with the size of dried dog food that we use, and our Collie-Spaniel cross responds well to the target stick. We haven’t had the most success in training our dog by using the remote to dispense treats, but that’s more down to our inconsistency than the technology itself. We have a very busy house, which doesn’t really lend itself to a setup like this, but if you have the time and patience, I think it would work really well.
Overall I like this pet trainer, it’s a good idea and works well. I am therefore happy to recommend it.
It comes with a dvd and hefty instruction manual so that you can utilise the machine in a variety of ways. The unit works well and there were no dispensing problems, but my dogs are older (7 & 14) so they are a bit long in the tooth to get used to something like this. They knew that there was food in there and spend a lot of time nudging it and pawing it in order to self dispense……I wouldn’t be happy leaving them with it if I was out as I think they would break it!
If you have time to train your dog and put in the hours to do it properly then I think this would be very useful, however if you don’t then I think it would be a waste and an expensive treat store.
Well designed and worth the money, but the remote needs some work.
It comes with an excellent ring bound manual with simple laid out strategies and explanations of why and how training works.
The dispenser has a plethora of switches, so that it can perform different functions. It is not a one-trick pony!
An excellent DVD is also supplied with clear visual clips as to what you are trying to achieve and how to manage the lessons.
This product could be used by a dog trainer to great effect or a family to train their own dog with location commands.
I tried a a simple ‘touch the target’ routine with out Schnauzer.
She got it in 2 minutes.
We will use it to get her to reliably go to her ‘rug’ when the door bell rings, she can hear people getting out of their cars in the street before even entering our drive and barks.
There are two wheels supplied for different sized kibbles, standard complete dry dog food bikkies work just fine.
The device really does dispense just one at a time, I was surprised it worked so well.
The lower tray is removable for cleaning and as I said, it is a very study product, the woofer can’t tip it over or open the dispenser.
A battery is supplied for the transmitter remote control; BUT you need to buy FOUR ‘D’ cell cell batteries.
Use Alkaline, so they last, but these are horribly expensive. (10 to 12 for 4 in supermarkets etc)
However, Toolstation sell them for 2-50 a pair, half price (5 in total) and the are a good Which! reviews brand.
It would be better if a place existed for the remote to be stored, the only option is to bung it into the dispenser, where it will get covered in crumbs, so use a small plastic bag to keep it safe. By the way – the unit is quite large, so you’ll need storage space.
Highly recommended and great fun to play (train!) the doggie with.
Der Preis schwankt stark, Grund sind evtl. Whrungsschwankungen, die weitergegeben werden. Es lohnt sich also, fters reinzugucken.
Zum sofortigen Start sind noch zustzlich vier D-Batterien notwendig, am besten gleich mit kaufen 😉
This is a very well designed product. Right out of the box, it was so easy to use immediately. The machine itself is high quality and runs smoothly. The training materials are very user friendly; the DVD and book are complementary to each other and well produced. We are using this for teaching independence and helping with separation anxiety but there are many situations that it will be helpful. I totally recommend it.
This is a great way to train your dog(s) to go to a particular spot and stay. We have started using this to teach our dogs not to rush the door when the doorbell rings. I would highly recommend anyone who purchases read the booklet that is included – it has very helpful tips on how to be consistent in training. In addition – anyone who uses this should start slowly so that the dog learns the initial step before trying to sit, stay.
Without the machine, however, his training’s still a little rough. He’s able to obey basic commands like sit and come, but some of the other training doesn’t quite make sense to him without the machine around to beep and dispense a treat.
Nonetheless, worth the money. He’s much more confident, thanks to this device.
I really like this and the method of training my dog is very clear. I have run into problems finding a food that motivates my dog sufficiently so it has taken us almost a month to get to the down-stay game which is my main goal.
The actual device works well when the food is the correct size and I have had no mechanical issues.
I would recommend this. Watch the YouTube videos with Dr. Sophia Yin on this machine to have a sense of how it works.
It works fantastic and reliable. The first time my Dogs meet with it it has to stand my rough motoric Aussies and they did not destroy ist or make any scratches. This was the first test for it. After conditioning the machine for one or two lessons it was no Problem for all my Dogs to work with it and to understand it.
I am stocked about it, that I can turn the volume of the sound up and down.
For everyone who worked ditsance parts with his Dogs it is a great Thing!
Thank also for very quick delivery! (please excause my english 😉 )
The kibble does jam at times, but the problem seems to occur when the level of treats is too low.
I recommend it highly.
I recommend ordering 2 remotes, so if you lose one, you don’t have to interrupt the training while waiting for a new one. My girl has very severe separation anxiety — she was brought from france and somehow ended up on a California freeway — and this device was recommended by her trainer. Plus, it’s fun! I put in broken-up Cheerios when I leave, light on the calories, cheap, and the more treats, the longer the activity lasts.
I recommend this for anxiety, or just for fun. It’s a good way to train a dog that has high energy and trouble focusing. The price here is the cheapest I’ve seen, as much as sixty dollars less. But do watch the DVD. This tool will only work if you follow the instructions, and, like any training, are consistent.
Also recommend the thundershirt for anxious pooches.
Thundershirt Dog Anxiety Treatment, Large, Heather Grey
However, that being said, there are some things that could have been better.
First of all, the remote control is a bit disappointing. It works ok, but does not have the build quality that the manners minder itself seems to have.
Second, it’s quite a noisy machine. The beep sound is adjustable, but even the lowest level is far too loud. It’s great outdoors (I use it for agility), but indoors you’ll prefer to turn the sound off completely. But even if you do that, the mechanism itself is not really quiet.
Lastly, it jams a lot, which is probably the biggest problem. The mechanism is really sensitive to what treats you use, but even when you make sure you only use round, hard pellets of the same size – sometimes a pellet i broken in half and jams the tray so that you need to remove it manually and restart the manners minder. That’s really easy to do, but might be an issue if you leave it on automatic mode so your pets can have some fun while you are away.
After spending several months building a foundation for weaves, I was able to place the Manners Minder at the exit of the weave poles. The dog learned right away if she did the weaves correctly – TREAT! I can send her to the weaves, which she will now complete flawlessly regardless of my whereabouts – NO babysitting the weave poles anymore! And for whatever it’s worth, I DO NOT have a breed which is thought of as an “agility breed” (i.e. Border Collie, Sheltie, Aussie). Previously, I had a target saucer at the end of the weaves with a treat. But if the dog did not do the weaves correctly, she could usually beat me to the saucer and snatch up the treat before I could get there. This is the best training aid I have used with nearly twenty-five years of training dogs.
Only gripe is that often my dog’s kibble (normal dry food) gets caught in the opening, which stops the machine. The kibble is Puppy food and not very big at all, less than a centimetre at the widest point. Tried using the disc with the larger holes too (you get two distribution disks), but the kibble still jammed it. To avoid any jamming at all you’ll have to use REALLY small pieces of food. Also, if the target stick falls over or is pushed over, it doesn’t right itself, which I thought it would have. Apart from that, Great.
