Having had my share of run-ins with dogs, I know that a big issue is attitude. This is a cliche, but dogs can really sense fear...
Every time I've been attacked, I was scared _before_ it happened.
I'm curious, how is your brother around dogs? Maybe you could look into getting him comfortable/confident around dogs. That combined with a weapon would be better than a weapon alone. If your brother can control his emotions it'll get him farther than just taking out his spray whenever a dog eyes him funny.
