The collar works for the most part, but it has two large flaws, One is that the collar itself is fragile, lasting less than a year before falling apart and becoming unusable. The plastic cracks, the charging port loosens, and the signal port loses it's cover somehow, so that water gets in and kills it. This happened with two different collars.
But the worst flaw is that the static correction is not strong enough for a strong dog. My dog just runs through the fence and goes on merry adventures. I can correct him multiple times, but he'll only come back when he feels like it. The collar might work for a more sensitive dog, but my dog is clearly willing to pay the price of a few mild shocks to go where he wants.
We moved to rural Ontario, Canada in 2021 to 3.3 acres of flat and wooded land. We tried almost all of the things - other than an underground "invisible" fence. We did tractive, we did static collars, we did tractive WITH static collars. The tractive and static collars worked fine, except you'd have to constantly be looking at the tractive app to see where they were AND then call them back by feedback or static. Let's face it - who has time for that?
7 months ago, we finally took the jump, when a very angry/aggressive man, who claimed to be our neighbor (we have never seen him before in the entire time we've been living here) said that our dogs were in his yard "again", and he threatened us on our doorbell camera, "tie your dogs up or lose them". So, of course we got the authorities involved, but we also got the Halo collars to keep our dogs SAFE. I am finally ready to properly rate the collars.
Can I just tell you the amount of PEACE and PEACE OF MIND the collars have given us. These collars have literally changed everything for us. We can see our dogs at all times (on the app) we are notified of warnings and feedback. We are no longer worried about threats to our dogs.
I do want to caveat that these collars instantly worked for us because we had previously trained our dogs on the static collars. So, our girls were well aware what the static/touch meant and instantly determined boundaries with no issues.
I am so thankful for Halo for keeping our girls safe and giving us piece of mind.
Halo Collar serves as an effective solution that delivers significant reassurance through GPS tracking, virtual fences, and training functionalities. Nonetheless, the subscription fee, sporadic app issues, and battery duration are noteworthy factors to keep in mind.
Amazingly overpriced for a collar that hardly functions. The feedback features are inaccurate based off your dog’s location, the battery is unreliable, and the feedback options themselves are insufficient for dogs with any sort of working drive/prey drive. I live in a rural area & trained my dog on leash with this, only to see firsthand the inconsistent feedback being provided to my dog (when well within property lines) & the inadequate feedback response when at my marked boundary lines. The battery was extremely poor & I was unable to trust this collar. I effectively used my membership for 1 month when we had some pretty major life events, so forgot to reach out about this waste of money. When I did reach out, customer service did not even look into refunding any of my subscription (I paid for a year), nor did they offer to cancel my subscription on my behalf. The collar is nonreturnable at this point & it’s clear that this company does not give a damn about customer satisfaction. I would save your money & not buy this collar. There are better ways to ensure your dog’s safety. I am not a fan of Cesar, but gave this a shot to help with my dog’s acclimating to our new home, about $700 later, I have now learned my lesson & doubled down on my dislike of Cesar/his “brand” overall.
I just had the best customer support ever, so I'm writing a review about it. At first, the collar I had stopped working. It was within the limited warranty, and they upheld their end of the deal, and low and behold -- we got our probably refurbished but that's okay Halo Collar!Then -- gasp -- someone steals it. Someone literally stole it right off of my dog when I wasn't looking. Or, it fell off, and someone snatched it. I don't know. But someone else has it.So I'm thinking, I have to buy a new collar, right? And I'm looking into options, and then -- WABAM -- Halo Collar writes back that they will replace the stolen collar -- WITHOUT a catch!WABAM!Love the company. Hate the dude (or dudett) who stole my collar.
The Halo collar is better than I ever imagined. On our small farm we are able to set up the boundaries of our entire property. We would never have been able to do that with electric fencing or standard fencing. In addition, we can check where she is at any time. It creates a no stress situation for us. It's so simple to use and all you need is the collar and your phone. It's a dream come true for a dog and her family.
The Halo 5 is much more streamlined that my previous Halo 3. The battery life is also longer and it is easier to charge. I did have one day that I got a low battery warning for no known reason. Perhaps I didn't get it charged completely the night before? It only happened the once. I can't imagine having a dog without a Halo collar and the Halo 5 is the best yet.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Major Upgrade from the Halo 3!Our dog Bleu was a proud tester for the Halo 5 collar, and we’ve been absolutely thrilled with it. The size and comfort are perfect, the battery life is phenomenal, and the GPS accuracy has been spot-on. We previously had the Halo 3, which we loved, but this new version is truly next level. Every improvement feels intentional, and it’s clear Halo listened to user feedback. Outstanding job!
