Not terribly effective |
Product is supposed to work up to 10-12 feet, the spray actually reaches 2-3 feet. I was terrorized by a stray dog while trying to unlock my car. It didn't do anything until the dog was practically in my face and then the dog was back after I had entered my car but before I had the motor started.
Not what I paid for. |

Halt will repell that barkin' and chargin' dog |
I purchased Halt to offer some protection as I ride my mountain bike through the woods and onto a back road where several dogs like to chase me. I was bit once and the stupid animal control guy didn't even return my call. I decided to take "control" into my own hands. My first ride with Halt called for it's use, in that I was charged by this little monster that has threatened to bite me in the past. One spray sent this guy away in a hurry. He rolled in the dirt to stop the unpleasantness in his eyes etc. I did not spend the rest of the evening with him but I am trusting that the effects did not last too long. I felt kinda bad about doing it but I figured it was better than him taking a bite outta some little kid and needing to be put down. Hopefully, he will associate all cyclists with this unpleasant experience and will learn to not to charge humans (at least those on bikes).

Limited Range |
|
The spray kind of worked. I can usually discourage a dog by just pointing the can at them. However, when I had the opportunity to discharged the repellent, I was a little disapointed with the range. The stream range is actually less than the described 10 to 12 feet. The effective reach was more like 2 to 3 feet! Also for one dog, I had to literally "paint his face" to get him to react. |

I Feel Safe Now |
|
I feel much safer now with Halt! in my pocket when I walk my dogs. Sometimes we run into loose dogs in the neighborhood and I want to be prepared "just in case" something happens. Hopefully I will never have to use it but I feel much better knowing it's there. |

It really works! |
|
I walk my dog every day and have carried Halt for about one year. Until today I never had to use it. Today a rotweiller and two other larger dogs came after my dog and me. They were not snarling but they were not being friendly either. When they did not respond to me shouting "no" I pulled out my Halt and sprayed all three in the face. All three of them immediatly turned around and ran back the way they had come. I was amazed at how well and how quick Halt worked. I will never walk my dog without Halt in my back pocket. |
