I carry mace and always consider which way the wind is blowing. I also have a 45 and that doesn't care about wind.

leVieux,

2 things I would make certain of going the pepper spray route for self defense against attacking dogs: 1. Make certain the spray is highly effective, (max scoville units - I use to use Freeze Plus P) or Fox Labs, no off brand, hardware pepper store spray.

2. Be absolutely certain to buy some 'Sudecon Decontamination Wipes'. They're available at Amazon and elsewhere on the net. If you get some of the highly potent pepper spray accidentally on you, you'll be so glad you have it as it's works almost instantly...

On my bike, I used to average an absolute minimum of 25 miles a day about 5 days out of 7 and I was frequently attacked by dogs while cycling.

I used to buy Freeze Plus P pepper spray by the CASE in 4 oz. cans that I would put in holster (of sorts) and clip onto my gun belt.

Thanks for. the specific advice.

”There is a frequent pattern seen in pitbulls and thier owners”

AMEN to that !

They are out to prove that THEIR pitt bull is not ‘bad”; but always at the expense of some innocent.

As they say, ”There is no recall button on a bullet in flight”. Same with those dogs.

see:

Dog attack fatalities:

List of fatal dog attacks in the United States - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

note here that “bull terriier” is only #61 in popularity (frequency) of dog breeds:

Most Popular Dog Breeds of 2021 – American Kennel Club

Using registration statistics, the AKC has compiled the list of most popular dog breeds of 2021, from #1 through #197. Where does your dog rank?

www.akc.org

Taken together, these statistics reveal that serious dog attacks are many times more frequent from “Pitt Bull Terriers”, than from the much more numerous other breeds.

leVieux,

Some of the techniques I used (stream type spray) when attacked by dogs was to quickly aim above the eyes and do a Z pattern down, think Zorro.

This situation is when they're parallel with you, like next to your pedaling feet...

When I had a dog or dogs running to catch up with me - once they were in range, but still behind me, I'd hold the can upside down behind my back and do a wide 'Zig - Zag' spray pattern.

Most of the time (in my experience) 'most' dogs would stop and often roll on the ground smearing their eyes into the grass.

Pepper spray does not injure the dog, but it temporarily hurts like a bastard, so they forget all about chasing and perhaps biting you...maybe to death.

The most dogs I've ever had come after me was 3 big mixed breed, perhaps 80lbs or more and coming without barking... It's terrifying, but you must control your fear. Keep pedaling and have your spray in your hand ready to deploy it when it'll do the most good.

As Candcallen pointed out, not ALL dogs will stop, but MOST will.

Those that won't and if you're quick to access your pistol will maybe save you...maybe.

More people are shot than dogs by people trying to shoot dogs in residential areas. I might be exaggerating a tiny bit but think about that.

Rick O'shey will get your ass if you are shooting a dog on an area full of concrete and hard surfaces. It won't take you 10 seconds to find stories of people shot by someone trying to shoot a dog.

Bullets Bounce.

You better be right ontop of that dog all most at contact range to be justified and to not miss. You better be aware of what's behind the dog and better assume it will go through the hit the surface and bounce if that surface is hard.

Also consider where you are at and how to get the phuck out and now cause you might have pissed of owners to deal with and you gotta still call the po po.

Absolutely the last resort. Decision.
