    The barking dog spray sounds amazing – if you’d like a laugh, I thoroughly recommend reading the first review on Amazon.com. Made me laugh (discreetly!) in the office!

    • Belle says:

      The spray is amazing. We gave a can to our neighbor, who has a labradoodle puppy, and they would probably give us their first born if I asked for it, they were so grateful.
