The key issue is the fact that my dog is on a leash but the other ones aren't. Therefore we are at a distinct disadvantage. I can only control my dog, but the other dog can still "get at us" as he is unrestrained. In the 10 secs or so it's gonna take for the owner to come over and control their dog, I need to make sure that we are ok.

The only time my dog is off the leash is at the park where all the dogs are off leash.

So, yes, I do have leash and voice command of MY dog, but it's the other dog I'm worried about. That's why I'm looking into back up, like mace or a taser. I think it's more humane than me kicking the other dog and breaking ribs. I also don't want to be bit either.

I will try the no and all the other suggestions but in case it doesn't work, I don't want to be writing a new thread that's a RIP for my doggie.

Thanks you guys for the help.
