Increased attacks of stray dogs on residents of cities and towns are associated with the seasonal mating period of animals. At this time, dogs are especially aggressive and do not tolerate strangers in their territory, perceiving them as competitors. Will a simple gas can help in the event of an attack or is it better to purchase a special repeller?.
Effects of gas cartridges on dogs Available for free sale gas cartridges contain in their composition Algogen (dibenzoxazepine) or morpholide of pelargonic acid. Both drugs belong to the group of irritants, that is, they irritate the mucous membranes and skin. When exposed to dogs, the reaction is more pronounced in comparison with humans, since animals need less active ingredient.
Therefore, gas cartridges are a fairly effective means of protection against attacking dogs. If the pack attacks from one side, which is also leeward, one cannon will scare away all the dogs. In addition, with a gas canister you can fight back from the inadequate owner of a fighting dog, because often pets behave much better than their owners.
On the other hand, it is not possible to prevent aggression from dogs. And if in the street there is also a strong wind, to become on the windward side under constant attacks of an aggressive animal is quite problematic.
Effectiveness of dog scarifiers Unlike gas cartridges, ultrasonic dog repeller does not cause physical harm to animals and affects immediately all the flocks. At the same time, the range varies from 6 to 20 meters. Thus, to disperse dogs from their path can be from a distance, without being exposed to the danger of being bitten.
The strength of ultrasound is such that it knocks down an aggressive attitude even among the dogs that have been prepared for attack. For example, the Grom-125 model with a frequency of 25 000 kHz and a loudness of 150 dB operates at a distance of up to 20 m.
For maximum efficiency, it is recommended not to exceed 10 m.
The scarers have disadvantages. Not all dogs perceive ultrasound in the same way, so there is a probability of finding a dog that does not run away under its action. Specially trained dogs also will not get off course, but, fortunately, attacks of service dogs on ordinary citizens tend to zero.
