How to Defend Yourself Against A Dog Attack: The Electronic Dog Repeller



I love dogs, the vast majority of them loyal, loving, kind and patient. I have had my trusty companion, Kody, a 9-year-old yellow Labrador retriever, since he was a puppy and he’s never shown the slightest hint of a mean streak in all of those years. This is quite an accomplishment when you consider the fact that I have two young children that treat the dog like a rented mule at times. If all dogs were like my Kody then we wouldn’t ever read about fatal dog attacks or have to worry about how to defend ourselves against such an attack. I would say that the majority of dogs that do attack do so because they were raised in wholly unstable environments with owners that should probably be in a prison cell somewhere. Unfortunately there are dogs that will attack, even without provocation, and because of this we need to be prepared to defend ourselves against such events, especially those of us that live in neighborhoods where there is a bit more of the criminal element about.

One of the best ways to prevent a dog attack is to not let one get near you in the first place. The best, safest and most humane way to accomplish this is with an electronic dog repeller. Electronic dog repellers work by emitting a sound of such high frequency that it is audible only to dogs. The sound emitted by the electronic dog repeller is extremely discomforting to dogs but not in any way harmful to the animal. Although the noise is not audible to humans it is very much audible to dogs and the electronic repeller has a range of at least 40 feet as the high frequency sound is coming at the dog at a whopping 135 decibels. In short the dog is going to want to vacate the premises (and get away from you) but it won’t feel any lasting side effects as a result of being exposed to the sound. The device also adds a second measure of security by coming equipped with a super bright LED flashing strobe light which works to confuse a dog, should it choose to attack. However, I don’t really see this strobe having to be used unless the dog in question is in fact deaf. There is even a training setting that allows the device to be used as an instrument for training dogs in a similarly humane fashion.

So if you live in an area where there may be some dogs of questionable intent please do yourself and your loved ones a favor and strongly consider carrying a device like the electronic dog repeller.
