In my opinion, a large, fast moving dog is a tough opponent and I would rather use a large knife (7" plus bowie) than a handgun. I've thought about this one before and considered the possibility of a miss to be pretty high.

Dorsai
Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal
weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the
monarch of all he surveys.
