Dog Dazer II Ultrasonic Dog Deterrent

I live in an area with a lot of irresponsible dog owners. They constantly let their dogs off the lead, despite signs asking to keep them on leads. Unfortunately, i seem to be a magnet for all these dogs - running up right at me, and jumping up on me.Understandably, i do not want random, strange dogs, constantly running up very close to me, and jumping up at me - it feels very threatening to my safety.So, i decided to buy this product (nearly £50), and also buy a cheap imitator claiming to do the same thing (only £3), and conduct my own little experiment - as to which product seemed to work better.This product is definitely the best one, by far.Instead of having random, strange dogs take one look at me, and come running straight at me, and try to jump up - now, while using Dazer II, they still come running towards me, but STOP 1/2 metre away!This was very exciting and relieving for me - the first time it happened, and every single time it's happened since! Just delighted.Now, when pressing the Dazer II sturdy button, aiming in the direction of the dog - the approaching dog, stops nearby, and either stays there till i've passed, or the dog changes it's direction and goes past me, without any contact!What a joy! Since i've been using it, not a single dog has touched me, or brushed up against me, or run up and jumped at me!However, it seems to have a stronger effect on some dogs, and less on other dogs. Maybe this has to do with the dog's age and hearing ability?The only other slight drawback, is that when dogs are running towards you, zig-zagging, and changing direction (eg left to right) you have to swap hands quickly with the Dazer II - to use it in time, to work.To solve that problem, i shall be buying a second one - so i can have a Dazer II in each hand!There have also been a couple of dogs, who have visibly made a scrunched up face, and recoiled their heads, when the Dazer was used! Loved every second of that - for all the aggro i've had to put up these bad dogs with over the years harrassing me, before discovering this great product. Thank you Amazon for carrying this product!!In a perfect world, i would love to see dogs stop and physically run away in the opposite direction - but sadly the Dazer II is just not powerful enough for that.However, the Dazer II has consistently had a far greater and visible effect on dogs (compared to cheap imitator products), and is a far more discrete gray coloured product to have in your hand.Final verdict - totally worth £50, for the peace of mind, and relief, and feeling of safety you'll experience.If you are looking for a really great product, that has consistently worked in stopping random, strange dogs running up right at you, and jumping on you, buy the Dazer II - it's worth the extra money!Be sure to read and follow the instructions that come with it - for maximum benefit.

The device functions ok but has virtually no positive effect. I've tried it on over a dozen aggressive dogs over th last few months and only in one case has it caused the dog to back off. All the others have either paid no attention or just got more aggressive, no doubt interpreting the noise as a threat and causing them to get more vicious. Waste of money.

I bought this because we have recently moved to Puglia where there is a massive problem with stray/wild/feral dogs which roam the countryside unchecked. Our own dog is used to two walks a day and I was becoming increasingly reluctant to walk him outside our own property and constantly on the lookout for loose dogs. This device works brilliantly on unwelcome dogs, they stop in their tracks, turn around and just go away. However, it doesn't work on our own dog and we realised that this is because he had a lot of ear infections when he was younger which has obviously impaired his upper register hearing. My worry is that we will come across a stray dog with the same problem one of these days, but that is a small worry compared to being constantly frightened while out walking. On whole carrying the Dazer has made my dogwalks much more enjoyable and relaxed and I feel much safer while out walking.

Wow what a service! My Dazer II was despateched 3 hours after I placed my order and was delivered 36 hours later.It is of robust construction and comes with simple instructions which should be read before trying it out. The sensor, which ommits the sound, should not be touched but it does have a four pronged guard over it. I keep it in a pocket on its own so that no accidental damage can happen. It is not much bigger than a mobile phone so quite discrete in your hand.We have a problem with a neighbours dog who runs loose and barks and barks every time we go out of our door. The major problem is that he is fixated on 'going for' our dog when we pass - our dog is always on a lead. After a particularly scary incident we looked at deterrants to protect our dog and after reading many reviews decided on the DazerII as it was cheaper than a vets bill with good reviews.I've used it a few times now and it stops the next door dog in it's tracks and stops him barking. Hope this isn't beginners luck but I will update our usage. The only time it didn't work was when the dog got really close to me and was going towards our little dog with hackles up and teeth bared! I think he had got so close to our dog that he was determined to 'get him' regardless or I was in panic and didn't use the DazerII properly? I yelled and that sent him off but I was shaken by the experience. On the whole it works from quite a distance away. I press the button for 3 seconds repeating again and again if needed. I don't hold it down - do bursts as the instructions says.Although we didn't buy it for our dog we used it when kept barking at our old cat trying to get him to play. One click of the Dazer from about 4 meters stopped him. It caused him no fear or distress & he just stopped immediately. Peace for the cat! Not used it again on our own dog.If you come in contact with problem dogs then this gives you piece of mind and halting a dog in its tracks gives time to get more distance between you. Shame that the law isn't upheld - keep all dogs under control.

I purchased the Dog Dazer because we have a communal garden and neighbours have dogs that keep leaving poo's all over my area. The first dog I tried it on was in mid pooing, I pressed the daze button, which does work through glass and it took off like a bat out of hell! It only has to see me now and runs off, no more big dog poo's. The other two small dogs obviously heard the sound but just ignored it.
