I was advised to get one of these by a dog behaviourist i used, to deal with our over exuberant dog. Our problem was barking and jumping up at visitors to the home. After advice on how to use it effectively, it worked a treat and a truly think our dog is relieved that she doesn't have to be so dramatic when people arrive. Our golden rule was to use a key word down with our dog, and after 10 seconds if she hadn't done as asked, a blast of the corrector into the air (not on the dog) soon rienforced the command. We still use as a reminder sometimes, but the household is more relaxed these days. I would reccommend this product.

Works well for us..stopped a terror of a terrier from jumping up and nipping at our elbows used it four times now we just show him the can and he backs off, and it also helped stop a neighbours year old dog from bouncing up and nipping them after a few uses it's well worth a try but like all things it may not work for all dogs..depends on the dog..and the person training the dog..
