Like a home security motion sensor - it depends on how you hang it (I like to hand them no lower than 4'). It detects motion in a wide horizontal radius, and not so much in a vertical one. Don't recall any dogs setting them off, but a wasp started making a nest in one and it drove me nuts until I realized what was happening and sprayed the sensor with wasp kill.
