Aggressive Dog(s) = Pepper Spray?
Ok, before anyone starts blasting me for pepper spraying a dog then let me just I have not done it.
Here is the scenario I go through every other day: I have arrived back from college and I have started running regularly. Now I really enjoy running on the sidewalks in my town but there is a slight problem. Every time I go out and run I am confronted with aggressive dogs that usually come racing out barking and snarling their teeth at me. I honestly feel threatened and I have even taken several different routes to try and find one that doesn't have stupid dogs coming out into the road trying to bite me.
So my questions is should I try to find some pepper spray and carry it with me while I'm running or is there some other humane way to get these dogs to stop? Some lady at Wal-Mart told me that I cannot buy pepper spray in my county except at the police station, but she has used ammonia in a spray bottle to deter dogs while she walked. Any suggestions?
