in order to find the best ball match for your fetch dog. - 2 Time Intervals: GoDogGo® RemoteFetch Ball Launcher Machine has automatic and manual ball launching settings. In automatic mode, GoDogGo launches balls every 7 to 15 seconds for your dog to retrieve. In manual mode using the remote control, a tennis ball will launch a minimum of 7 seconds or a longer distance which is determined by pushing the Remote Launch button.
- Safety Feature: GoDogGo was designed with an automatic sensor/safety switch with an auto stop feature for your dog's safety. Please train your dog to stand in a safe location while waiting for a ball to launch. Most dogs naturally stand back from the unit, but please teach this behavior upon first use. Balls launch at high speeds so be sure you or your dog do not stand directly in front of the launch area. The sensor is sensitive to the weight of a ball and is located in the launch pocket area. NEVER touch the safety sensor or kicking mechanism when the machine is on. After following the simple safety rules, GoDogGo® ball launcher will provide hours of fetching fun and exercise for both you and your dog!
