Product Description

Who knows more about dog attacks than 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.

OVER PRICED !!
The Post office buys this identical

Fig. it out = $9.00+ -incl shipping
is a bit of over-kill!!
~~Note: it will: stop a dog* for a bit.

Reviewer: Todd W. Anderson, Georgia, USA
Sprays only a couple feet, hard to handle on bike, top cracked - leaked all over.
Most of the 5-star reviews were written by the same copy writer.

Reviewer: L. Wick,
Most of the 5-star reviews were written by the same ad copy writer. This is shameful and amazon ought to stop it.
Former Meter Reader...

Reviewer: My Own Twin, Ottawa, IL USA
I was a meter reader for the local municipality for several years, and ALWAYS carried Halt with me. I had to use it a few times, and it worked each and every time, regardless of the attacking dog's size or disposition. Since I read meters in the same areas of town on a regular basis, I came across the same dogs on a regular basis as well. The dogs that had to sprayed with Halt, seemed to remember after the first incident, and would never try to attack again after that.

My only word of caution, is "try" to stand up-wind of the dog you're going to spray IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, due to the fact that the wind can blow a mist of the Halt back at you....and you'll experience the same discomfort to the eyes and nostrils as the pups do! Trust me, I know!!!

Reviewer: Judith H. Green,
This spray bottle is small enough too carry anywhere....and I do. I live in a rural area and take it with me when I go for my daily 2 mile walk. I feel safe knowing that if anyone or any animal were to approach me in a threatening way I can instantly reach the HALT and protect myself.
