DirectStop is a humane and effective revolutionary citronella formula that interrupts the attacks by surprising and distracting animals with a powerful and unusual scent. This helps to give the user time to move to a safer place. DirectStop is highly effective for dealing with low to medium level aggression, both inter-dog and dog to human. Great to have at arm's length in shelters, training classes, kennels, or vet's offices. Easily fits in to the pockets of joggers, dog walkers, family members who take their pets to the park and more. When tested upon trained attack dogs, this citronella formula was found to be just as effective as 10% Pepper Spray without the harmful side effects of that spray. DirectStop does not cause pain. Thus aggression is not heightened. If there is "blow-back" during use, it will not hurt the user. DirectStop Testimonials: Testimonials from Industry Professionals, Pet Stores and Dog Owners for DirectStop® Animal Deterrent "We have an established daycare, and although we cater to a regular group of dogs, things can happen. We recently experienced a near-bite situation and now have adopted a policy which states that 'all staff members MUST wear DirectStop at all times.' The product is safe, effective and economical when you consider the costs of medical insurance and legal claims should a bite occur." -Ruth Ann Alrick, Owner, OH "We tested DirectStop's effectiveness in diverting an attack from a trained doberman. The dog went forward as usual, but immediately backed off the attack when sprayed with DirectStop. The command was repeated, but each approach by the dog was again arrested with DirectStop, and the dog never made contact with the bite target." -Diane Jessup, Canine Aggression Research Center, WA "I won't go on house calls without DirectStop. I once worked with a family whose feet were being routinely attacked by their Pit Bull. As the owner and I went into the yard to greet the dog, he charged at us. I sprayed the ground in front of the dog and averted the attack. The dog was not injured, and we were able to begin a modification program to change the dog's behavior." -Gary DeGeronimo, Four Paws Inn Behavior Modification & Management, AZ "We had great results using DirectStop in the shelter environment. In all cases except one, it halted the observed aggressive behavior immediately. In all the incidents, the display of the can was enough to deter a repeat performance of the unacceptable behavior." -Rick Blackwell, Supervising Animal Control Officer, CA All of these products are safe, ozone friendly, non-offensive to your family and harmless to your pets. Kit includes the spray and a belt clip.
