I think these attacks are probably pretty rare. I delivered pizzas in HS/college, worked as a courier for a summer after college, and only had a couple sketchy situations with a dog ever. Most dogs are all bark and no bite. But I also carried mace and later pepper spray just in case. Never had to actually use the stuff, but it seemed like a good idea. |

Finding a new pitbull attack thread to read through is like pulling your jeans out of the dryer and discovering a ten dollar bill!

sure. Probably overkill though. Dogs, like bears, have many more times the receptors in their nasal cavities that a human has. Makes them much more sensitive to things like pepper spray, iirc. So regular pepper spray should be more than adequate. Cheaper too. The one advantage to bear spray, and you kind of touched on it, is the fact that the canister is much larger than normal, so if you are attacked by multiple dogs, you have more ammo, as it were. |
