Product Description Mace Brand Muzzle Dog Repellent Spray Dog repellents can keep away unwanted dogs while you are walking your own canine, running, jogging, biking or enjoying walk with your children. Unleashed, untrained, angry dogs can threaten you personal safety and dog pepper spray can give you added security against wild, vicious dogs. Dog sprays are made with the same active "hot" pepper ingredients as traditional pepper spray. This Muzzle defense spray product is just as strong and effective as traditional OC pepper spray, but is EPA-approved to be a humane way to stop a dog attack or vicious animal. Just a single spray to the dog's face will repel the angry animal humanely and effectively with a temporary (but intense) burning sensation. This 14 gram canine spray canister is easy to carry on a belt, waistband or attached to a set of keys. This MACE brand product features an easy flip-top safety cap that prevents unwanted use while being carried. If you do encounter a dog that violates your safety, this item also has a contoured finger grip to assist your aiming accuracy. This product is easily dispensed with a single flip-push motion using thumb for the best grip. Each unit fires about 10 one-second bursts Effective range 10-12 feet Every unit "test fired" before shipping by Mace Built-in belt clip and key chain Easy to follow instructions included Includes self-adhesive fastener for bicycle use

| Customer Reviews: Have used since 1994 with no problems August 1, 2010 BET (OKLAHOMA) What you are referring to is the percentage of Capsaicin in the spray not the % of Oleoresin Capsicum. Oleoresin Capsicum is the oil of the pepper and within that oil are capsacinoids that cause the inflammation. MUZZLE does have 10% Oleoresin Capsicum with .35% Major Capsaicinoids. If you look closely at bear spray (which is much hotter than regular pepper spray) it contains 10% Oleoresin Capsicum with 2.0% Major capsaicin content. A dog repellent spray only needs to have 0.20% Capsaicin to be effective and .35% Capsaicin is pretty hot. I have used MUZZLE since 1994 and have never had any problems with it. Replace it every few years and test it periodically. Also keep it out of the extreme cold as it can decrease the firing range. If you are running or biking in the cold keep it under your jacket. My unit sprays a red stream about 12 feet away. Its velcroed to my bike for riding and clipped on my waist for running and walking the dog.
Horrible defense against stray dogs May 25, 2010 Anonymous Speech (Los Angeles, California) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
When I was out of town my wife went for a walk with our large labradoodle (90 lbs) and our golden retriever (80 lbs). She usually carries this Mace Brand Muzzle Dog Repellent Spray because there are a lot of stray dogs in our neighborhood. The one day I wasn't with her a large aggressive pit-bull started following her and our dogs. She stopped and yelled at it to go away, reaching for the Mace. The dog approached anyway, and started growling at them. My wife fumbled with the Mace, trying to get it to spray. It took her a while to figure out the safety flap, costing them a couple seconds. The stray dog was now snarling and on top of our labradoodle. She sprayed it directly in the face from a close distance. It had absolutely no effect.
The only thing that saved her was her loud screaming. It's possible that the Mace kicked in minutes later and the dog gave up, but I would never trust her out on her own with this product as her only defense. I'm looking for much stronger stuff now.
Failure to spray March 28, 2010 Wendy Clark (California) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I was riding my horse and an off leash dog became aggressive with my horse. I pulled out my "muzzle repellent spray" and squirted the dog twice on the back. I went to press the button for a third squirt and the nozzle just fizzed with mist. I thought to myself that it was odd that the bottle was already empty and had barely been used. Luckily the first two squirts scared the dog away. I then squirted the bottle again to test it and it fired properly...squirted again and it fizzed. I shook the can and I could tell there was still liquid in the can. The spray action is not reliable. I have bought a different product and hopefully that will work.
sincerely, Wendy
Mace Dog spray January 7, 2010 Olefin (Hot Springs, AR) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I was very disappointed after I received this product and found it only contains .35% OC!! I've had to use Human pepper spray (10% OC) on pit bulldogs and other large dogs. And it worked! Also the human pepper spray containing 10% didn't cause any permanent harm to either of the dogs that I used it on.
I'm not too concerned with the humane aspect when I'm being charged by a large vicious dog. I want something that I KNOW will stop the dog! I doubt this stuff would slow down a large vicious dog.
I can't afford to take a chance for I take blood anti-coagulants.
Update on the above review.
Today, Jan. 1, 2010, I tried the product on a large dog. Lucky for me the dog wasn't too aggressive and the owner was near by.
First, there was very LITTLE pressure on the container, most of the spray ran out on the side of the container down on to my hand! It did produce a tiny stream that went out about 3 feet. That was not enough it get it on the dogs head. Then that was all that was in the container. The owner yelled at the dog and he came to get the dog.
I can only think of what might happen had the dog been aggressive. I rate this product poor.
The way it sprays is like a stream of rain October 12, 2009 Reader2008 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I wouldn't count on this spray to keep an AGGRESSIVE dog away. It sprays in a single LIGHT line and, thus, the dog has to be close for you to get it. I recommend the SABRE brand; the line it sprays is thicker, stronger, and the smell itself will keep an aggressive animal from you.
