The spray bottle or air horn, only temporarily stops the behaviour for the moment, it doesn't correct it.

It also associates the owner with what has to be a painful sound to a dog with the hearing capabilities they have and it may actually INCREASE the dog's growling at the handler or ANYONE who goes buy. I'd be throwing a dog growling at me treats through the slats of the kennell.
