What a waste of time. Placed this around the area that I didn't want the dogs going around. Next day they have been over and destroyed my plants. Few days later gave it another go, same results. What a waste of money. Does nothing. Dont waste your money on this product.

In the case of my two diggers, the product seems to be successful. The product is easy to apply and although repellant to dogs it is not obnoxious to humans. Was surprised the product continued working even after a fairly heavy rainfall. Will purchase again should the need arise. Read other reviews. It does not always work. Some dogs are not put off by the smell. I'm just glad irt worked for my two fur babies

This stuff did not work at all,, actually it seemed to attract the dogs to stop and releve themselves on my front yard. Way to expensive for what this is and I would not recommend,, just use vinegar or a common household product.

Got this to deter dog from digging.....didn't really work. Breed of dog is German shepherd and at the time she was under 1 year old. It's better to get your dog into a routine and/or get them interactive toys.Added bonus was we had less toads at the door while using this.

I don't have any dogs. However, a couple large neighborhood dogs kept using my perfectly manicured lawn in a territory marking competition, or in some kind of doggy communication system, which would inevitably stain and kill my lawn beyond repair with unsightly yellow spots. Once, a neighborhood dog owner left a physical brown package, of the poopy variety, to tell the other neighborhood dogs what kibbles that dog had yesterday for its breakfast. How rude. Anyways, I don't own a dog, so me and my perfectly manicured lawn were innocent victims in all this ridiculousness. So, I purchased this doggy Mace product to see what it could do, sprinkled it along in the front yard next to the sidewalk and poof... problem solved. For some reason, the smell of the ingredients in the doggy Mace turns off dogs to using the bathroom, and from my observations they move on to another yard to do their business somewhere else besides my front yard. No more NEW doggy yellow notes to each other or physical brown packages. Old ones still exist but will be using it next spring to ward off another doggy turf battle on my lawn which will again be perfectly manicured. From the comments I read previously, this product is not good at training your own dog, so I guess those disappointed purchasers need to look for other innovative ways in training their dog. This product worked great for my needs. 5 stars.

Looks, let's be real, unless you're going to jump out and chase away every dog, there is no magic way to stop dogs without a fence or other barrier. Anyway, like many on here, I have a problem where dogs will mark on certain spots, mainly the mailbox post. Since it is all grass, this of course ends up killing the grass due to the build up of nitrogen.I bought this product due to it being granules instead of a spray, as it seemed easier to apply. It's made up of various scents with the idea that dogs will in general either not like it, it will irritate their nose or maybe just overpower the other mark scents. Once a dogs marks a spot, various other dogs will now want to mark over it when they smell it, and it seems almost all dog owners do not bother to stop them, even if it's right up on a mailbox post (vs just peeing generally somewhere on the grass). Trying to change the behavior is mostly futile.So I have been spreading this around, and especially reapplying after heavy rains. At most I let it go 2 weeks before a reapplication. I don't smell anything when just standing there, but of course a dog will be right on the ground.To figure out if this is worth buying more, I have gone through camera footage from before and after, tallying up which dogs are marking there. And ultimately it does seem to work, but it's on a case-by-case basis. It seems to depend on the dog, ultimately. So what does that mean? Well, if your issue is with just one or two dogs, it's really going to be hit-or-miss on if this does anything for those particular dogs. But when you have a bunch of different dogs, it will at least reduce the occurrences across all the visitors. I plan to buy more in the end.

The effect lasted only a day and the same dog that uses the front yard as its personal bathroom walked right in and did its business.Did not appear to bother the dog. Only bothered the dog walkers the first few hours after application, but seemed to have no effect after 12-24 hours.

I almost never write reviews on products I get off of Amazon but I had to give my $0.02 on this. We have a St. Bernard puppy and he has been jumping one of our fences recently and I looked for a product that will keep him away from the side fences in our yard.I ordered Dog Mace yesterday. Opened it up tonight and spread it by the fences that the dog was leaping over. I had to run inside real quick to grab something and left the bag of the stuff on the patio thinking he would leave it alone. Wrong. He grabbed the bag and cam all over the yard with it. He tore the bag open and whipped his head back and forth. He spread what was left all around the lawn. I took a picture of what is left of the bag. Pretty safe to say this stuff doesn't work as he is still trying to jump over the fence. Man oh man did I want this to work. This was a waste of $24.17 and I doubt we can get our money back even though it says "100% satisfaction guaranteed" right on the bag.
