Review: shoots 30' - works well on ...ICE 🤪 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Review: Won't leave home without it! - I took my dog to the nearby high school, as I often do, to run in the open fields and chase flying discs, and just walk the perimeter. The school does not mind dog visitors as long as folks clean up after their dogs! My dog is 7.5 months old (a large, medium Goldendoodle who thinks every human and dog wants to play). Before unleashing him, I make sure all the gates are closed and if there are other dogs present that they are with a human. This afternoon I spotted a guy with 4 unleashed dogs - small, medium, and large breeds) and nobody else was with him. I took my dog to where we usually play but did not unleash him. The guy with the dogs was approximately 1/2 football field away. But as my pup and I were making our way to where we usually play, one of the guy's dogs, a tall, black Doberman pincher-type dog, was making his way to us. I could hear the guy yelling, but had no idea what he was saying. I attempted to get my dog behind a gate and onto an empty baseball field, but my dog was excited and I presume thinking he was going to meet a new friend, which has happened several times at this school. I have my dog mace attached to the front loop of my jeans, so I had the canister in hand. As the dog approached, I could see that he was starting to growl, and then the other three dogs (much smaller) joined him. The owner was getting closer and yelling, "They're all friendly, they just want to play." I said, "Get your dogs, or they'll be maced!" Soon, the large black dog was towering over my pup, who had assumed a submissive position on his back on the ground. Then I heard my dog yelp in pain. I was behind the black dog, picked him up by the collar, swung him away from my dog and, unfortunately, had to mace the dog to get him to back off. It took a few seconds before the dog started to cough and retreat. The guy came to his dog, and I said I'd maced his dog with dog mace (human mace can be pretty harmful to dogs). The owner grabbed his dog and said he liked to play, but then the owner got a whiff of the mace and started to cough, too. I told the jerk that his dogs should not be off-leash unless he has control of them, and they will return to him when called. They would not listen to him. I told him he lacked control of his dog and had no business having him unleashed on a school property. He gathered his dogs, dragging the black one by his collar, and returned from whence he came. I was so upset that I sat down in the sun with my pup, who seemed just fine, and then I cried. I'm a 73-year-old woman in fairly good shape, but my dog weighs about 38 lbs, and the black dog was more muscle, so I must have had an adrenaline rush to pick up that black dog with one hand and mace him with the other. My dog and I stayed and played a short time longer, but we were both so upset that we left. I took my pup and got him a pup cup (ice cream). After we were home, my puppy kept coming to me, trying to lick my face and look at my face in a way he'd never done before. It made me realize he was most likely just as worried about me as I was about him. Thank God my dog trainer suggested I get dog mace and always carry it with me. I've carried police-grade mace for years since I would often be leaving hospitals in the middle of the night, but I didn't know about canine mace until the trainer told me. I fear what would have happened if I had not had that weapon with me and ready. The owner was too far away to get his dog off of my dog. Idiot.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this drive raccoons away from my home? They are getting comfy and closer to my dogs.**
A: Raccoons are a vector for rabies (and other things). If you come in contact, wash immediately. If bitten, you should consider yourself infected. Rabies is fatal to people if not treated timely. Raccoons should be afraid of humans, if not, have them removed unless you are a trained trapper or hunter who is familiar with how to properly trap or dispatch the animal and properly dispose. This spray may stop a rabid animal, it would definitely stop one that is not rabid. If you see any animal acting unnaturally, best to get away if possible and call someone that knows how to handle.

**Q: what is the shelf life? also, will this freeze if stored in a car during winter?**
A: The shelf life of Mace Brand Bear Spray (Model #80346) is three years. This is a mandate from the EPA for all Bear Sprays on the market. Mace Brand does not recommend storing Bear Spray at or below freezing temperatures and it should not be exposed or stored at or above 130 degrees F.

•	Storage Recommendation: Store your Pepper Spray in cool dry area away from heat, flame or strong light. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not store it in an environment where the temperature may exceed 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) such as an enclosed vehicle. The Pepper Spray cartridge may leak from over pressurization and fail to function properly as a result of excessively high temperatures. Do not store unit in a cold environment under 32 degrees F (0 degrees C). This may cause depressurization and the loss of effective range.

**Q: If i were to drive a 1995 dodge caravan through a hiking trail, how many coats should i apply to the paint to completely bear-proof it?**
A: Depends on the paint. If the paint is as old as the car, I assume it is rather faded and porous. If so, a single coat should do the trick, as this stuff will linger for days if it has something to seep into. If the paint is more glossy, definitely follow your capsaicinoid coat with a sealant afterward to keep it from washing off in the rain. However, your best bet to bear-proof your car is simply to lock your doors.

**Q: How tall is the can?**
A: The can is approximately 9 inches tall

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good spray with holder
*by A***R on October 26, 2025*

Bought this as a protective measure when hiking but thankfully haven't had to use it yet. Comes with a holster which is a nice addition and looks easy to use. Has a cap that makes it hard to accidentally spray it. Definitely worth the purchase for any hikers in common bear areas.
