‘warning-level feedback.’ Quickly, your dog will respond to just the audible or tactile warning as its primary feedback. However, based on your dog(s)’ energy level, even a well-trained dog may get distracted and ignore a warning; the static feedback will overcome even significant distractions and may save your dog’s life. To select the correct contact tips, consider your dog's coat.
4 Wiggle the Halo Collar to work the contact tips through your dog's coat. NOTE: The contact tips must have contact with your dog's skin to be effective. Modifying or Replacing the Halo Collar Strap If you wish to replace the strap with a ‘belt-buckle style’ strap, follow these instructions: 1 Unscrew and remove – but keep - the Halo Collar’s installed contact tips.
. Charging the Halo Collar NOTICE To prevent corrosion, thoroughly dry the USB-C port on the Halo Collar and the surrounding area before plugging in the charging cord Unplug the charging cord before you fasten the Halo Collar to your dog. You should fully charge the battery before you use the Halo Collar for the first time. Charging a fully depleted battery takes about two hours. The Halo Collar does not charge when outside the temperature range of 0° to 40°C (32° to 104°F).

Managing Multiple Halo Collars As you add each dog to your Halo app and assign a Halo Collar to each one, your dogs will appear as icons on the Map View on the MyMap tab.
Each user of the app (each member of the family) is strongly encouraged to take the Halo User Training course. Once at least one family member has completed Halo User Training, he/she may begin training each individual dog using the introductory Halo Pet Training program. Training is designed to be fun for you and your dog(s). You should train one dog at a time.
Sometimes dogs will vocalize due to the surprise of the electrical stimulation. If your dog vocalizes more than once, the intensity level is too high. The intensity level that causes a slight but recognizable reaction is your dog's baseline level for beginning collar training. Do not run this test again. After you begin training, your dog’s performance guides your intensity selection. As your dog advances in training, you may need to ch ange the level depending upon the training results.
Positive Feedback: If your dog starts to return to the safety of the fence, the Halo Collar applies your configured Positive feedback, including the Whistle. Lost Mode: If your dog leaves the fence area by over 100m (~300ft), it will no longer receive Emergency Feedback; instead, the Halo Collar will attempt to direct your dog back to the safety of your fence using Positive feedback, including the Whistle, Good Behavior and Heading Home.
