Some of the Best Ideas Are Born Out of the Greatest Need
The Peace of Mind You Deserve
We’re a team of technology and dog experts who have built the world’s most complete safety and training solution for dogs.
Roadside Safety
We put safety above everything else. Other “smart” fences notify you after your dog is unsafe. We’ve developed an advanced suite of smart solutions to protect and prevent safety issues.
Holistic Home Life
The Halo system uses next-gen communication technology and expert training to teach you to “speak dog” effectively and intuitively—with Cesar Millan leading the way.

Our Mission
We aim to build a bettter life for each Halo dog, and a better world for every dog, everywhere.
Roadside Safety
A staggering number of dogs are hit by cars in preventable accidents every year. We aim to eliminate that number for good. The Halo system was designed to work with your dog’s instincts to keep them inside their fences and out of harm’s way.
Holistic Home Life
Almost half of all dogs surrendered to shelters are given up because people think their behavior “problems” can’t be fixed. We want every dog to have their forever home, so we’ve developed a repeatable training program that will teach you how to rehabilitate problem behaviors.
No More Lost Dogs
Over 10 Million pets are lost every year; that’s 1 out of 3. Most make it back home, but many do not. Halo is the only system that can help guide your dog home if he or she gets lost. This protects your pup, and keeps them out of shelters.
Better Balance, Better Behavior
The Halo Collar provides automated and manual feedback, so that you won’t be associated with the rules, boundaries, and limitations you set. Halo teaches you to be a better pack leader, and gives your dog natural guidance—so pet parenting feels like second nature.
Live A Life Un-Leashed
Halo uses a holistic approach to help you teach your dog to respect boundaries using mental exercise, rather than physical discipline. Instead of the physical force of a leash on your dog’s neck (or on you), Halo uses natural, simple, profound communication to create better boundaries—and less worry.
Freedom Any Time, Anywhere
Halo’s installation-free Smart Fences make the best in safety accessible to pet owners everywhere—even if they aren’t homeowners. Whether in the yard, at the dog park, at the beach, or on an adventure, Halo provides freedom and safety in any location.
