Heel Virtual Dog LEash™
The best e-collar for keeping your dog close on the farm
Farming with a dog is great — until they're chasing cattle, disappearing into the tree line, or halfway across the county before you notice. The Roam 350™ keeps your dog in range (from 10ft to 750ft) the same way an adjustable leash would, just without one.
A direct radio signal connects your remote to the collar — no GPS, no cell service, no app.
The Roam 350™ is the ONLY E-collar on the market with a boundary that automatically moves with you. Automatic warnings and corrections keep your dog close completely hands-free so you can work while Heel™ keeps your pup in range.
Adjustable off-leash freedom made as easy as it gets.
Just set the distance. That's it.
No buried wires, no paid subscriptions, and no drawing property lines on an app required. Simply turn it on, set the off leash radius you want to give your dog around you, and they're off leash and in control.

Your dog stays close no matter where you're working.
Unlike GPS fences that lock a boundary to a piece of land, Heel™ creates an adjustable radius around you — so whether you're in the barn, out back splitting wood, or checking on the far end of the property, your dog's boundary moves with you. No setup, no remapping. Just set the radius and go to work.
Stop babysitting. Start working.
You're elbow-deep in a job and your dog is headed straight for the chickens. Heel™ corrects automatically the moment your dog hits the boundary, so you don't have to stop what you're doing. Your dog stays close to you. You stay on the job.
No fence. No problem.
Fencing acreage costs thousands. Tying your dog up defeats the purpose of having one on a farm. Heel™ gives your dog the run of the property without the fence bill, no GPS collar subscription fee — and without spending your day yelling their name into the tree line.
Your dog learns to stay close. Naturally.
Heel™ uses a tone warning before any correction — so your dog isn't just reacting to a zap, they're learning that staying near you is the right move. Less correction over time, more trust. That's the kind of farm dog you actually wanted.

FAQ's about using Heel™ around the farm
What if I just need an off leash solution to quickly let the dog out?
Heel™ makes it easier than ever. Turn it on, step outside, and your dog has the freedom to roam without you holding the leash. No leash, no chasing, no hassle.
Will it work in my wooded or oddly shaped backyard?
Yes. Unlike GPS fences that drift and lag under tree cover or in tricky terrain, Heel™ uses direct proximity sensing between the remote and collar — so dense tree canopies, slopes, and irregular lot shapes don't affect performance.
Does the boundary stay put if I go back inside?
Heel's boundary is always centered on whoever is holding the remote. If you step inside, bring the remote — or hand it to someone staying outside. It's a you-centered system, not a property-centered one.
Can I use the same collar at home and away from home?
Yes — same collar, same settings, works anywhere. Your backyard, a friend's house, an Airbnb, a park. No redrawing boundaries, no reconfiguring. Turn it on and it works.
Will my dog be confused if I adjust the boundary settings on them?
Heel™, like any e-collar, requires proper training. The goal with Heel™ is to train your dog to check in with you when they hear the tone or feel a correction rather than recognize a specific boundary on your property. Start by using the manual tone button at the same time that you call them back, and reward them when they come back to you. Within a few training sessions, they'll recognize that the tone and vibrate mean "check on my person", rather than "this is the edge of the boundary" as they might with an underground or GPS fence. Once your dog begins returning to you each time they hear a tone or feel a correction, you can introduce the AUTOPROX™ boundaries that move with you.
