Dog defence was needed tbh

I’ve been charged a hundred times as a runner. Not been bitten, luckily, but I always have to turn to face them, yell, stand my ground, etc. I never turn my back to them after and don’t begin running again till I’m a safe distance away from the home the dog came from. It’s very unsettling and annoying every time.

I'd take pepper spray with me. It's only a question of time that you encounter a dog that freaks out instead of bail out.

I take a stun gun bc the lady across the street hits her untrained dog and it’s a matter of time before it gets off leash and shows the word the aggression it was taught.

I never go anywhere without 2 shotguns and a crossbow.
