How to use the Power Tail 2.0

Tips For First Use

We understand that every dog is unique and may need some time to adjust to new toys like the Power Tail 2.0. Some pups might jump right into play, while others need a little encouragement. Here are a few tips to help your dog get excited and make the most of their new toy:

1. Charge and Set Up:

  • Fully charge the Power Tail 2.0 using the included USB-C cable (~2 hours) before first use.
  • Attach one of the included rope tails securely to the toy.

2. Introduce the Toy Slowly:

  • Start in Slow Mode: Begin with the Slow Mode (Purple Light) so the movement isn’t overwhelming. Gradually switch to Fast Mode as your dog gets more confident.
  • Encourage Curiosity: Sit near the toy and let your dog approach at their own pace. Use excited tones and praise when they interact with it.

3. Make It More Enticing:

  • Use Treats: Place a treat near or on the toy to spark curiosity. Reward your dog when they interact with the toy.
  • Attach a Favorite Toy: You can tie a small, familiar toy to the rope tail to make the Power Tail 2.0 more inviting.
  • Hide and Chase: Place the toy partially under a blanket or around furniture to create a game of hide-and-seek, encouraging your dog’s natural hunting instincts.

4. Supervise Initial Play:

  • Watch your dog during the first few sessions to ensure they play safely and understand how the toy works. This also helps prevent aggressive chewing on the device itself.

5. Be Patient & Positive:

  • Every dog learns differently. If your pup seems unsure at first, give them time and use positive reinforcement—treats, praise, and lots of encouragement go a long way!

With a bit of time and patience, your dog will be chasing, pouncing, and wagging their tail in no time!

The Power Tail 2.0 is ideal for small to medium-sized dogs. For larger breeds, suitability depends on how aggressive your dog is with chewing.

We recommend supervising the first play session to see how your dog interacts with the toy and ensure it’s a good fit.

Yes, the Power Tail 2.0 works perfectly on carpet, thanks to its powerful motor that keeps it moving smoothly across all floor types. Plus, the silicone texture adds extra grip, making it even more effective on softer surfaces.
