Dog Horn XL – The Original Air Horn for Dogs! Stop Attacks! Scare Coyotes Bear & Wild Animals! Effective Training Tool & Outdoor Safety Alarm for Hiking, Biking, Camping, Boating, & More!

Works great. While on a walk with my dog, a dog came out of a house and charged us three times. The horn deterred him each time. After the third horn blast, he left us alone

Loud, easy to use. Has a clip on it also. Whatever you.... do not hold close to you when you discharge. The can says - point away from your ears. It is LOUD If you hold it close, your hearing will be very faint for a few minutes. 😂 I found that out when I tried it out. It took about 5+ minutes before my hearing came back 100% (And no, I did not read the can before I used it! lol) It is like a strong fog horn, but with a higher pitch. Loud & clear Having said that, absolutely worth it!!! Tryied it out in the house when the dogs bark at anything that passes by outside - The dogs freeze & stop immediately & actually move from the window. The cats run to another room. Now, I only have to hold up the can - silence from them. 🤗 If you live in the country, coyotes etc. it might be a good choice.

Loud enough to startle a dog or intruder

After an encounter with an off-leash German Shepherd some years ago, the personality of our Male Chi-Weenie (black one) changed drastically. He was no longer the happy-go-lucky, friendly, play with all dogs little guy anymore. He reacted in negative way to most dogs, no matter their size. Very sad to see this change, and no clue how to break him of this "get you before you get me". He also began fence fighting with neighbor's dog, when he used to ignore that dog prior to incident with the GSD. The neighbor's dogs are 40-50 lbs, or larger, and one of them even "pounds" up against the fence. About a year ago, her daughter moved in and she has a dog also. I NEVER let ours outside alone, but theirs are always out alone and they are VERY SLOW to react to any ruckus at the fence.The amount of incidents or encounters with off-leash dogs in our area has increased, and it's out of control. We have a strict Leash Law here that is being ignored - especially on the Walking Trails. Add to that the stormy weather damaging fencing and/or knocking it down; pets escape. Neighbors on a message board recommended this DOG HORN, so I decided to give a try.I have used the XL once during a walk on the nearby trail. There's a home with 2 large GSD's behind a chain-link fence and my little guy knows the area and gets all amped-up and we aren't even close to them yet. As soon as one of the dogs began barking, I gave a SHORT quick press and EVERY DOG was QUIET. It was LOUD! Oh my goodness. I will wear ear plugs in the future. It was also amazing that ALL 4 DOGS shut up. I think our Female (tan one) will return to her "better self" quicker than our stubborn Male. She's the more sensitive of the two. During this walk, we did not encounter a loose or off-leash dog. I will be carrying the XL with me in the future.As far as the fence fighting at home goes, have only used it once so far. Like the trail experience, all the dogs stopped the incessant barking/fighting at the fence. The day before, I let my neighbor know that I had this device and she said, "Good. Maybe my dogs will learn a thing or two and stop." I told her it's very loud but that I only use a single short burst.Now that I know the XL is getting a response from our dogs, I will probably order a Refill Set. Glad this product is available in a refill style.

Works great

It is loud. It works against wondering dogs.

Good very high pitched horn to deter aggressive dogs (or people), without deafening yourself or hurting anyone. Too many folks let their dogs run loose on paths shared with bicyclists; many dogs instinctively chase and bite.

This has worked to get my Coonhound to stop baying at the dog on the other side of the fence when she wouldn't listen.However, today my mother and I were walking her in our neighborhood and saw a loose pit bull type dog and an American Bulldog type dog. They came charging at us. My Coonhound is not very good with dogs approaching her, and a fight can easily break out.I told my mother to take her back a few feet and I used this air horn, along with my voice, against the charging dogs. It took a number of blasts but the American Bulldog turned tail and ran. However, it only seemed to agitate the Pit Bull looking dog and he kept advancing and barking at me. It was pretty scary. I backed off and he left, only to turn around and try to take a couple of more runs at us then turn around and head home as we, in the distance, tried to run up to nieghbors for help.It was altogether scary. I think this thing is fine for a lot of dogs, but just be aware, it might agitate the rare dog. ** Also, most pit bulls are sweet in my experience, but this one scared me. Never good to see two loose bully breeds charging you and your dog.I will now use this along with a small gel pepper spray thing that I will wear on my hand. It's for runners and I just bought it tonight here. I definitely would have felt better in this instance with pepper spray.Also, against the roaring traffic of the nearby busy road, the air horn didn't sound that loud. But at least one dog left after four blasts.
