APack Membership Plan is required for every collar to activate and maintain GPS services and cellular data (just like your cell phone), and create, edit, and use wireless dog fences. Additional collars are added to your plan at a lower monthly rate.
Each dog needs their own Halo Collar, but all dogs can be managed through one account in the Halo Collar app. Each collar can use all Halo Fences that are created and can be turned on/off for each dog without affecting the other dog(s) on your account.
The Halo Collar will last for up to 24+ hours on a single charge, depending on factors such as having the most up-to-date firmware and how much time you are spending in the app. You should remove the Halo from your dog each night, and charge it overnight so you can start the next day with a full charge.
The Halo Collar's advanced GPS/GNSS system is extremely accurate. It uses the latest geolocation technology and is more accurate than your smart phone. Halo Fences are not created using a wire, so they can't be cut, damaged, and don't need to be installed underground. In addition, Halo Fence posts can be placed anywhere, and are not limited by geography or other obstacles that prevent the installation of a wire.
If your dog escapes beyond the three levels of protection provided inside your Halo Fences, there are multiple fail-safes outside of your fences that will help protect your dog. You will immediately be notified if your dog has escaped. In addition, with Cesar's expert guidance, you will train your dog to come right back home! Your dog's Halo Collar will use its advanced algorithms to intelligently determine which direction your dog is facing, so that they only receive prevention feedback if they keep running further away from safety, and so they'll never receive a correction while heading home!
When approaching a boundary, your dog will receive a customizable warning. This triggers your dog's associative memory, and your dog will learn that a warning means "keep away" from the boundary. Two more tiers of preventions are applied if your dog is distracted and ignores the boundary.
Create a Halo Fence in your app by placing fence posts with your finger, or by walking with your Halo Collar to use the collar's GPS. The GPS coordinates of the Halo Fence are automatically downloaded to the collar and remain there permanently (unless you edit or delete them). Halo Fences can't be cut, damaged, jumped over, dug under, and don't require any maintenance.
You can create an unlimited number of fences in your Halo app depending on your plan, and they can be created anywhere in the world. If you intend to go to a zero-coverage area, you can set up your Halo Fences before you leave, and it will work seamlessly. You can edit any fence, at any time (just be sure to practice this new boundary with your dog!). Each fence needs to include a minimum of 30x30 square feet for your dog to roam safely, and can accommodate a maximum of over one thousand square miles.
A plan is required to keep your collar active and access all your Halo collar has to offer. All Pack Membership Plans come with unlimited cellular data and automatic network switching on most cellular providers (AT&T, Verizon, T-mobile, and dozens more worldwide), so you can have continuous GPS with real-time location tracking and alerts. As long as your Plan remains active, Halo will provide all of your subscribed services and will also provide you with live support along the way.
Once your Plan is activated, some Plan changes can take effect immediately, while others can only be scheduled for the end of the current billing cycle. You will see this clearly stated, and be asked for confirmation, prior to making any change.
Yes! Not only do we offer a discount if you purchase two or more Halo Collars, but we also offer significant savings on your Pack Membership Plan for additional collars. If you have a Bronze level membership, an additional collar will only cost $3.99/month. If you have a Silver or Gold level membership, an additional collar will cost $4.99/month.
You can switch at any time from a Monthly billing cycle to an Annual billing cycle from your My Account page. This will immediately start you on an Annual plan. If you are already on an Annual plan, a change to Monthly will be scheduled for the end of the annual billing cycle.
You can cancel your plan for a refund for any reason prior to activating your first collar. Once you activate your first collar using the Halo app, your Plan will officially Activate, and will remain active through the end of the current billing cycle. You may cancel prior to Activation, or submit a cancellation request for the end of the current billing cycle, by logging into My Account, clicking on Account/Edit Account Settings/Membership, and following the cancellation procedures described there.
If you intend to go to a zero-coverage area, you can set up your Halo Fences before you leave, and it will work seamlessly. Halo Fences are stored in the collar's memory and won't be lost even if/when it loses power or an internet connection.
All dogs speak the same language! Halo will work anywhere. But to make changes or see real-time updates, you need Wi-Fi and/or cellular coverage. We are starting in the United States but will expand to other countries soon.
Fences provide privacy, screening, and containment. In some cases a fence may not be allowed, such as near a stream or other critical area and may be limited in height if a fence is in a front yard. Fences taller than eight feet require a building permit approval.
Generally, anywhere on your property. However, the fence location will determine its allowable height. It is not required to be set back from your property line unless your property contains a Protected Area (wetland, stream, steep slope) or is within the Shoreline Overlay District. In such cases, refer to Land Use Code (LUC) 20.25E and LUC 20.25H.
Fences in a required front-yard setback may not exceed 4 feet, 6 inches, except under certain circumstances discussed below. See LUC 20.20.010 for front-yard setback requirements for your district. See LUC 20.25A for Downtown zone setbacks and LUC 20.25D for Bel-Red zone setbacks.
Fences exceeding 4 feet, 6 inches, but no taller than 8 feet, may be located anywhere except within the required front-yard setback. Fences over 8 feet are permitted with a building permit but may not be located within any required front-, rear-, or side- yard setback.
A fence must not violate the sight-obstruction restrictions at street intersections. Those restrictions are found in Bellevue City Code (BCC) 14.60.240 and BCC 14.60.241 and vary by type of intersection. If your fence will be located near a driveway or street intersection, contact the Transportation Department for additional information on sight-obstruction restrictions.
Height is measured from the finished grade along the exterior side of the fence to the top of the fence. If a fence is built on top of a berm, the combined height of the fence and berm must not exceed the allowable fence height. On sloping ground the fence must follow the slope or step with the slope so as not to exceed the allowable height at any point along the fence.
Yes. And chain link security fences may be permitted in a front-yard setback in a CB, GC, or LI District or in commercial parking lots and storage areas if plans are approved by the Director of Development Services. The fence must not violate sight- obstruction restrictions nor stand in or in front of any required landscaping. Chain link fences may not be allowed in districts subject to design review.
Yes. But if used along a property boundary, it must be placed on top of a solid or chain link fence that is at least 6 feet high. Barbed wire fencing may not be allowed in districts subject to design review.
Electric fences are permitted. In residential districts, electrical fences require additional fencing or other barriers to prevent access to the electric fence by small children from adjacent properties.
Fences in a required front-yard setback may not exceed 4 feet, 6 inches, except under certain circumstances discussed below. Fences not located in a front-yard setback may exceed 4 feet, 6 inches. The required front-yard setback is measured from the property line, not from the paved part of the right of way. In residential areas it is common for the right of way to extend beyond the paved street or sidewalk. This area is typically landscaped and maintained by the property owner and may appear to be part of the lot, but is actually within the right of way.
A fence must not violate the sight-obstruction restrictions at street intersections or driveways. Those restrictions are found in Bellevue City Code (BCC) 14.60.240 and BCC 14.60.241, and vary by type of intersection or the specific conditions of a driveway. If your fence will be located near a street intersection or driveway, contact the City of Bellevue Transportation Department for additional information on sight-obstruction restrictions.
Height is measured from the finished grade along the exterior side of the fence to the top of the fence. If a fence is built on top of a berm or wall, the combined height of the fence and berm or wall must not exceed the allowable fence height. On sloping ground the fence must follow the slope or step with the slope so as not to exceed the allowable height at any point along the fence.
A wall that is not used for retention of soil or other engineering purposes and solely is a wall that prevent entry to an area of a property is considered a fence and subject to the fence requirements for placement. Walls are a different structure than a fence and a permit is required for a wall if it is taller than 48 inches.
I was very impressed with Tim and Dave. Their work ethic is outstanding. My yard presented several challenges for them, which they accepted without hesitation. They are a great team and Fences Unlimtied is very fortunate to have two such hardwaorking, knowledgeab;e and commited men working as part of their team.
