I picked up a Spitfire and a Sabre pepper spray. I saw that there was one that was meant for just canines.
Should I have gotten that instead, or is the regular pepper spray just as, or more, eff. for canines also, or should it not be used for canines
Thanks
MTA: I asked because there was one that was for canines, and others didn't, unless it was just for marketing purposes. |

I'm sure there's a scientific answer to your question, but unfortunately I don't have it.
I have had formal training where the instructor told us pepper spray was good for both dogs and people, but I don't know how he learned that. I didn't ask. I was busy trying not to spray myself.
Good for you with the pepper spray. I think everyone should carry it, where legal, of course.  |

| The "normal" pepper spray you can buy in most stores is 6% capsaicin (sp?), and works on both humans and dogs. It doesn't have to be labeled for dogs specifically - there's no special ingredient for them. There is also a bear pepper spray you can get from hunting / fishing / outdoor stores. It's anywhere from 10-15% capsaicin, and comes in a more pressurized container so it will spray farther. Check with your state DEP / DNR to see if it is legal in your state. |

| I have heard that mace is not effective against dogs, so you must use pepper spray. I'll try it out on my dogs and let you know. . |

| I've heard that you have to spray them in the mouth because that's where the more delicate skin is--not much of an impact on the fur. |
