Dog Spray Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between dog spray and regular pepper spray?

Human pepper spray is more potent than dog spray, because dogs have a much more sensitive nose than humans. Protector dog spray is the maximum heat allowed by the EPA.

Why should I carry dog spray?

75% of dog owners surveyed have encountered aggressive dogs while walking their pets. Dog-on-dog attacks tend to put emotional, financial and legal stress on the owner(s) involved. To help avoid time-consuming strain, dog spray can quell aggressive behavior without leaving lasting harm on either dog.

Does dog spray actually work?

Yes, SABRE’s Protector Dog Sprays are formulated to be safer for you, your dog, and the attacking dog. It’s designed for short term effects that can deter an aggressive dog from attacking while allowing you and your dog to get to safety. The key ring models (SRP-KR-02, SRP-NBCF-KR-02) and the running hand strap model (SRP-22J-BK-02) have a 10-second spray time. The clip model (SRP-MK3) has a 6-second spray time.
