HALT Dog Repellant Spray
Who knows more about dog attacks that the mailman. Letter carriers have had to deal with aggressive dogs since Claudius Polonius was delivering rolls of parchment to citizens of the Roman Empire. So what do the experts use to repel dog attacks. Well, the U.S. Postal Service has been using Halt! Since 1966. You might say they have been conducting field tests for over thirty years. Halt! Products use Capsaicin, a naturally occurring extract of peppers, which, when sprayed in a dog's face, causes only temporary, but extreme discomfort for the dog. Think of it as attitude re-adjustment. Halt! Stops him in his tracks, giving you time to move out of danger. Halt's pressurized spray is accurate up to 10 feet.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I did some research and this seems to be the most powerful. I'm not planning on using it (hopefully ever) but if I ever use it is because another dog is attacking my dog beyond anything I can help... so I'm not looking for the most humane way to stop the attack but the most effective.
I've never had any kind of problem but my wife was concern after hearing horror stories where the people around the attack couldn't do anything to separate the dogs after several minutes... this should help if that ever happens.
BTW some other brands compare their product VS pepper spray. That is just stupid because pepper spray doesn't do anything to repel dogs (and they know it) but they compare it anyway... that's just pure scamming. If you don't have a good/better product please don't scam people when their life or their dog life are in the line. Be honest!
The 4 stars instead of 5 is just because I haven't try the product... I'll update if I ever try it.
Stay safe! :)
Here is some advice. You need to walk with this in your hand. At first I had it clipped to me. I got charged by a dog that ran out of a door when the owner opened it. It happened so fast I could not grab it in time. Now I carefully wrap my 2nd dogs leash around my hand so I can carry it ready to spray. Good luck to all you dog walkers out there!
Update:
Got charged by two pugs the other day and they refused to be phased by my verbal commands. When the front one got within about 6 ft I sprayed it in the face. It slowed down or stopped then started advancing slowly. I sprayed it again making sure to hit the eye and nose. It stopped and the owner came out to get his dogs. I feel like this is a deterrent and carry a stick as a back up. Read you can use a stick to perhaps pry a dogs jaws apart as well. Luckily I haven't had to try out the stick yet...
Update 2:
Got charged from behind by some golden doodle looking dog loose in the neighborhood. Luckily someone called out to me just in time to boot that dog away and start spraying. Dog kept trying to engage my leashed reactive dog. I booted it away and continued to paint the dog orange while yelling at it to get back. I was ready to switch to the stick when the dog gave up and retreated. Still leaving 5 stars for now. I ordered 2 cans of EPA max 1% spray. If I need to use them I will update this review with a comparison.
A couple drops got on my dog and I carefully washed it off with some no water shampoo. My Wife said the dog was still a little spicy though 🙂
You could possibly get several uses out of the can but I always carry a fresh one.
REMEMBER THIS PRODUCT IS A DETERRENT!

This is the second time I've used a pepper spray on an attacking dog. I purchased the first from a gun store and was made aware then that dogs are less affected than humans. The first product cost twice as much as HALT was far less spray. I will purchase a replacement HALT or two.
From three dog attacks in an area with mandatory leash laws, I've learned this. Carry a camera or cell with camera. Set the camera to print the date on the print. Take photos first then spray when within 7 feet or so. Both products sprayed that far with a squirt gun like directed spray. Aim for the eyes. Do not spray your leashed dog. Do not intervene between the dogs unless you happen to like pepper spray. If your dog is unable to defend itself, carry a baton or stick too. Animal control folks, who do encounter this situation frequently, tell me that pepper spray will not be absolutely effective on a dog. It is a deterrent. A bullet is effective but not my preference, hopefully not yours either.
Ignore reviewers who confirm the spray did not stop an attack. HALT states "use this product to repel". It does not say it Will Stop. I bought. I used sooner than hoped. HALT held more that another similar product for half the price. It sprayed. We walked away. Aggressor caught. Veni Vidi Vici. What's not to rate as 5 stars here?
Side benefit: the red residue positively identifies the dog to animal control. Hard to see, perhaps, but the photo is of yesterday's loser. Red nose. Closed left eye. Now fed by taxpayers.
