There is no scientific data that says these sprays work. I assume that you are talking about spray attractants for housetraining a puppy. The best advice is to look at reviews on Amazon and choose one with the best reviews. Because veterinarians don't really study these kinds of things and most of the recommendations come from dog trainers based on personal experience with using them. Also if you ask top dog trainers they will not focus so much on the spray attractants, but instead will focus on consistent training methods to get your pet to use the potty on the pee pads only. Which involves close monitoring of your puppy, diligence to picking up your puppy and taking her to the puppy pad when she goes somewhere else, and crating your puppy when you cannot monitor her at all times.

Sport dog is a good brand with several levels of correction. This will not be effective for chewing unless you are always there to correct her. If she chews when you are not home there is no way to know or enforce or correct this. For any training you have to ask them to perform something they know, such as sit. If they do not do it you push the button. If they do well then you reward them. Keep them on a leash while training. When you ask them to come, you pull the leash. If there is no interest then you correct them. They will learn to associate the two things together quickly to respond

Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco. If this is a behavior that you would like to stop, I find that using a spray bottle filled with water and spraying a dog lightly in the face helps to correct the behavior. Also, using an empty can filled with coins and shaking it loudly can help as well. I used both techniques on my dog and it worked quite well. The can trick was by far the most effective in my case. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. Please remember to rate this answer as helpful or not. Thank you!

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! I’m sorry you are going through this. Some suggestions are 1) to keep calling the SPCA and police and reporting them. 2) Keep trash cans inside the garage. 3) fence your yard 4) take them yourself to the SPCA 5) get a motion detector noise deterrent. There are many places online. Below is an example. https://homeshielders.com/products/battery-powered-ultrasonic-animal-and-bird-repeller?gclid=EAIaIQobChMImNDu5p-f3gIVjaOzCh3uhAKxEAQYAyABEgKz8fD_BwE Good luck!

Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco! If the spray bottle technique does not work well, then leash training him and getting him trained with obedience commands is the next step. You need to train him to sit, stay, lie down, come, etc. This will give you better control over Blaze. I typically recommend having dogs like Blaze go to an obedience training course with a trainer to establish these commands. Once he learns these commands, you can command him to stop the behavior by distracting him with these commands. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions and I would be more than happy to help you further.
