"Good purchase. Bought this for when my dogs play on my apt rooftop dog park. They always leave smelling of saturated urine. I rub this in all over and they don’t smell like pee at all afterward. Will def purchase again."

"Basically I bought a can of pressure. Very noisy,comes out in a small cloud of liquid. Not enough to put on a paw. Dogs are terrified of the sound. Disappointed"
