Harish, I have checked on amazon and all the ultrasonic devices I found had very poor reviews.

Subject: Re: [AI] Physically-challenged girl mauled to death by dogs Hi Pranav I guess, dog whistle is used for calling them and notfor repelling them. Probably, some ultrasonic device should work as their hearing range is far superior than ours. Should be much better than using spray's.

Subject: Re: [AI] Physically-challenged girl mauled to death by dogs Hi all, I am curious, does the use of a cane provide any defense in the case of dog attacks? In addition, do we get anti-dog sprays etc that we could wear to repel dogs? I have seen a number of such products on amazon.com but most appear to be for spraying around areas such as gardens so that dogs do not come. I have heard of people using dog whistles to repel but have not had the opportunity to research this.

Subject: Re: [AI] Physically-challenged girl mauled to death by dogs This is indeed a menace. Dogs and monkeys have been in recent times playing havoc in many parts of our country. Be it in residencial colonies, school/college campuses, temples and so on. Animal lovers have over the years blocked any kind of action. In JNU and Du there are a number of visually impaired students who have been attacked by dogs. The authorities do nothing about this . -----Original Message----- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Timy Sebastian Sent: 22 July 2014 08:33 To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning the disabled. Subject: [AI] Physically-challenged girl mauled to death by dogs if this is the case, I don't no, how we visually impaired people will escape from streat dogs, specially in banglore and other places. please read the news from below and understand how cruel it is. Physically-challenged girl mauled to death by dogs Special Correspondent In a gruesome incident, a 17-year-old mentally and physically-challenged girl was mauled to death by a pack of six stray dogs at Kotha Venkojipalem in the city on Monday morning. The deceased was identified as Mary alias Nookaratnam, daughter of Appala Reddy and Lakshmi. Apart from being mentally and physically challenged, she was both speech and hearing impaired. Because of all the illness, the girl was very thin, just about three-feet tall and was totally immobile. While her father works as a security guard, mother adds to the family income by serving as a domestic help. It was the duty of the couple to feed the girl in the morning and leave her in a makeshift cradle in the verandah of their hut, before going to work. At about 10.30 a.m. on Monday, six stray dogs attacked and mauled her to death. The pathetic thing was that she was neither able to fight back nor scream for help. They even pulled her down from the cradle and tried to drag her into the bushes, adjoining the hutment. According to a neighbour, Ramalakshmi, “Whenever, she would feel hungry, the girl would cry. When I heard her cry, I thought that she was hungry. But when it continued for some time, I came and out and saw six dogs dragging her away. I tried to chase the dogs away, but they attacked me also. I called for help, and a few others joined in chasing the dogs away. But by that time Mary was dead and her body was torn open at various places.” According to Appalanaidu, a neighbour, the dog menace has increased in the hutment located on the hill slopes after GVMC let loose some dogs in the neighbouring cremation ground, about a month ago. “The dogs returned to lick the blood even after the body was taken away by the police for post-mortem. We are afraid, since we have small children,” he said.
