Said it works great, but you just have to be careful not to let it blow back in your face.

Mid 80's in Houston, I had this junk yard dog coming out and chasing me every morning and the owner knew it and ignored it. I sprayed water in it's face every time to keep it off. on a 30 degree morning, I took a tea pitcher of ice water and dumped it on his head. he never looked at me again.
I had a mail carrier, dog repellant bottle on the bike but squirting a water bottle in thier face always backs them off.
