I can say that I have never out of malice harmed any animal. As for dogs I have never sprayed a dog in an instance that I was not in fear of an imminent attack. I have had to physicaly fight off a rot wiler (forgive bad spelling) once. That was why I started carrying the spray. (4 rabies shots in 6 weeks, and antibiotics for the puncture wounds.) The dog jumped over a fnece, and attacked me. I was not carrying at the time due to a company policy.

Out of thousands of dogs incountered I have only had to spray 3. They were all 3 together in a pack, one was moving in to hamstring me. I love animals. I am a dog owner. Yet if I or my dog are facing attack I will spray a dog with pepper spray. If the spray does not work I will shoot it. No malice involved. Simple protection of myself, and my dog.
