Review on High Tech Pet Deterrent Repellent by Sarah Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works like a charm in repellent carpets

When a car drives by my house or a butterfly drives by a gas station in Bolivia, my extremely alert and ridiculously helpful 90 pound dog Humphrey warns us with hysterical barks and lunges on the furniture. As much as I appreciate his efforts, I've tried everything to deter him and protect the furniture - training, awards, slipcovers, those scratchy litter boxes, you name it. I wanted something that would push him away once and for all. My first consideration was litter mats, which are mildly shocking, but I knew I couldn't do that with a helpful dog like Humphrey. While I read good reviews about this product, I was very skeptical given our track record. The carpets arrived yesterday. I won't lie - they don't make a fashion statement. If you are looking for something invisible, these rugs are not for you. They won't become a fashion accessory on your furniture, but they work and won't harm the animal! I put the mats down as soon as they arrived. A few seconds later, a bumblebee set fire to a flowering bush outside the bay window in my living room, and Humphrey jumped onto a mat-covered chair to warn us. When the carpet squeaked, it immediately bounced off and hasn't even been able to get to the furniture since (I have one on the couch too). I can't believe how well they work for an extremely reactive dog. Fantastic product!
