Beware of this product - minus 5 stars
I’d give minus 5 stars if I could. I had slim hopes for this product, based on reviews. But I thought if it helps my 2 dogs do their business in a smaller area of my back yard I’d be happy. But the results were the opposite and really bad. My 2 dogs love to run and play in the back yard. They zoom around all over. When I received this product, I read the instructions (yes, I’m one of those people). I brought the dogs in from the back yard for dinner, out of sight, hearing or smell of the yard. While they were eating I sprayed one small area in my yard, about 5x5 ft. I didn’t drench it, but sprayed about 8 times. After dinner, a walk for the dogs. So they were away from the yard about 45 minutes. When we got home I put them back in the yard to resume play. They both immediately froze, crouch down, and started to sniff the air. They were visibly anxious. They wouldn’t move, just kept sniffing the air. After about 2 minutes they both bolted for the dog door to go inside. They were frightened by the smell enough that they now refuse to go into the back yard at all. We do not have wildlife in my neighborhood other than squirrels. I’ve spent the last 10 days hosing down the sprayed area (which is ~15 feet from the dog door), dousing it with other smells they ma be more used to (Febreze, Nature’s Miracle, etc). So far, no luck. Instead of attracting the dogs, this sprayed has scared the stuffing out of them. What’s in it? Mountain lion? Stay away from this spray!
