An all-in-one dog fence, training, and tracking solution, utilizing smart technology and natural dog psychology from renowned dog behavior expert, Cesar Millan.
Introducing Halo: the world’s greatest smart fence system. The virtual fences you create right in the app work with the revolutionary Halo Collar, and actually keep your dog safely inside. Halo also includes in-app expert training, using Cesar Millan's proven training methods, real-time safety and activity tracking, and instant communication with your dog anywhere to provide the best protection for your best friend—at home or on the go.
Halo Fences
The easiest fences you’ve ever set up: it’s as simple as tapping on your map in the Halo App, or by walking around the boundary you want to create using the Halo App and your Halo Collar. Halo Fences use world-class global satellite GPS & GNSS systems to locate your dog(s), and work autonomously to provide instant Prevention and Encouragement Feedback to keep them safely inside their smart fences, direct them back in if they leave, or call them back home wherever they are. Halo Fences are stored right inside the Halo Collar, and don’t rely on a cellular or Wi-Fi connection to work. If your dog approaches a Halo Fence boundary, they’ll instantly receive guidance to teach them where they can and cannot roam freely.
Easy Setup, Unlimited Options
No wires, no digging, and no hubs necessary. Halo Fences are created in the Halo App, then sent to and stored inside each Halo Collar. You can even create up to 20 unique Halo Fences virtually anywhere in the world. Finally, a fence that your dog can’t jump over, dig under, and that won’t let your dog run out of range, regardless of terrain, property ownership, and the size and shape of your fences.
Intuitive Boundaries
Halo Beacons are small Bluetooth beacons that communicate with your dog’s Halo Collar just like Halo Fences do. Place Halo Beacons indoors to keep your pup out of harm’s way from dangerous areas like stovetops, or off-limits areas like trash cans. Halo Beacons and Halo Fences provide instinct and consistent guidance from the Halo Collar, and can easily be managed right from the Halo App.
Phone Notifications
Stay up-to-date, but not on the edge of your seat. With in-app and push notifications, you’ll stay in the loop about your dog’s safety without having to worry that you’ll need to panic and rush to bring your escape artist back home.
Completely Customizable
Completely customize your dog’s feedback directly in the app. Preventions (Warning, Boundary, then Emergency) communicate the existence of a boundary that your dog should keep away from. Your pup will only receive Prevention Feedback while moving toward danger; as soon as they stop, turn around, or head back home, the Halo Collar’s advanced internal logic plays customizable Encouragements to tell your dog they’re doing a great job. It even automatically plays a Return Whistle to guide them back home!
Revolutionary Training
Learn Cesar Millan’s expert techniques to train your dog(s) to recognize boundaries. Cesar’s step-by-step instructions explain his world-renowned, proven methods that will give your dog the safest and most effective training experience anywhere—starting in your home before moving outside. Halo is your go-to pet parenting support that you can count on to give you peace of mind and an amazing relationship with your dog(s)
Real-Time Safety Statuses
No other collar does it all like Halo. Real-time safety statuses tell you whether your best friend is safe at a glance. And fast and accurate tracking via GPS & GNSS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular technology shows you what your pup is up to, even if you’re not around.
Activity Tracking
Activity tracking logs your dog’s location, number of walks per day, and time spent active, resting, or in the car. Keep up with how much exercise your dog is getting every day so you can stay on top of their health goals.

We’ve had our collar for almost a year now and it has been life changing for our pup! He is mostly German Shepherd with a fair amount of Great Pyrenees and Alaskan Malamute thrown in so his best days are when he can roam our property at his leisure and walk the perimeter making sure nothing has crossed that he doesn’t know about. It’s even more enjoyable for him if the weather is below 25 and snowing. Not so much for me! Haha! This collar has allowed him to be a MUCH happier dog. He learned his boundaries very quickly and easily and hardly ever pushes them anymore. Tracking him down a mile away and in our neighbors property used to be an almost weekly adventure and reached the point where he was just rarely off leash but I have not had to do that even once in almost a year. The product is not without its glitches - new technology rarely is - but the company is clearly committed to keep making improvements with every update and my experience with customer service has been wonderful! They even offer frequent live zoom meetings with the owners of the company and members of the customer support team where you can learn more about the collar and ask questions. As I mentioned, there are still a couple of glitches with things such as battery life or the communication between collar and app being “outdated” more frequently than I would prefer, but I have no doubt those issues will keep being improved and resolved and I can update my review to 5 stars soon!Thank you Halo!

Over the years I have tried all kinds of radio transmitter collars to try and keep my dogs in the yard. I couldn’t do buried wire collars because my property is huge and we live on a giant granite hill in New Hampshire so burying isn’t feasible.The radio transmitter collars were a pain because they all had roughly circular coverage but my yard is not circular and it is very hilly so the coverage pattern wasn’t something you could expect a dog to learn.I had always stayed away from cellular GPS collars like the Halo because of the initial price, but if you add up all the other things I tried, it would definitely be more expensive than the Halo! The main features I like are the cellular connection that allows me to always see where the dog is on my phone, coupled with the ability to send feedback through the app, ranging from a tone, a vibration, or a shock. I’ve had lots of portable correction collars before, but all it takes is one deer in the woods and the dog is out of range of a normal transmitter collar before you can even get it out of your pocket. With the Halo, no matter where he is, I can give him a correction, and he knows what that sound means - he’d better get back in the yard or he’s going to be in for a shock! This collar coupled with the cameras I have around my yard allow me to leave the dog door open 24/7 - even if I’m in a different state I know I can see where he is and correct him if necessary. It’s a game changer!

We love the Halo system. We have been using this product for almost 3 years now. I have three dogs currently using the collars. 2 are 100 lb Labs and the other is an 85lb German Shepherd. We live on 7 acres that is mostly fenced with woven wire cattle fence. At our Previous home, our two labs were accustomed to an underground fence system, so it was no problem for them to convert to the Halo system. Our German Shepherd was trained using the halo collar system starting at about three months of age. He learned quickly because I worked with him daily to help him understand the differences in the different stimulations and tones.What’s nice about the product is that we always know where our dogs are using the Halo app on our iPhones. Keeps them off of the fence line and from engaging the other dogs or farm animals on the opposite side of the fence or digging under. If we need to call them back to the house it’s very easy to open the app, Select all dogs with the proper tone, and they know to return to the back door at the house. We also use it when we’re traveling to with our dogs to visit relatives. We can just set up a new boundary line, walk them around to identify the boundaries, and then let them go.Just like so many other products, you do run into problems that need to be resolved, and when we have encountered any problem, the Halo team has been very responsive to provide resolutions.We love the product!

Pretty good collar
TNhomesteader
I have had this for about a month now, I think it is good at what it does, but the quality of materials do not reflect the price, very cheaply made plastic collar and the charger did not even come with a port to plug it in, so I immediately had to go spend even more money even though I had just spent over $550 on the collar. It works as advertised, although there is some lag in response time sometimes. I like the movable boundaries as I have a large oddly shaped piece of property. But to be honest I would try something less expensive first if I were starting over and see if something less expensive would work for you first. Especially if you have a smaller yard/land or live in the city somewhere and a four corner shaped fence would work for you. I give this a 4 of 5 because the customer service is very good, and it does work as advertised, however the cheap materials and no charger even though it’s very expensive is a big turn off. I will use it as long as it lasts however I don’t have high hopes as I have a lsg dog who is out of the farm all the time and it is clearly made from very cheap plastic that cannot last long. If it lasts a long time (a few years) than I would consider it money well spent, if not than I will not get another one. I also dislike that you can’t use it at all without a subscription. I tell myself I paid for the tech not the materials. 🤷♀️
