Not to be anti-gun or anything; but would a snout full of pepper spray make a dog run off and stay afraid of you afterwards?
Sometimes, I just feel for the dog.

Naw. You just have to shoot it. lol

I guess I inherited my dads meanness.
I'd get an air bag off a wrecked car. Bury the thing about 4" under the dirt. Place some table scraps on top. Run some wire to the house. Have a 12volt battery ready.
Then blow that dogs a** straight in the air.
For the record, I was attacked in a rural neighborhood where the houses sit on at least 5 acres. They aren't bunched up like city houses. A big problem for me is that it's a dead end road of about 1 1/4 mile in length. Once I go by that house, there is no way out except the way I came. I swear those bastards see me ride down to the end then let the dogs loose before I come back. The big, black male that bit me has run up to me several more times since then but my ASP is always ready to knock the shxt out of him. I think dogs sense when you're dangerous and he has stopped short of jumping me.

I have an ace in the hole. None of the dogs have tags and the officers told him they'll cite him for every one of the untagged dogs if this keeps happening.
I don't fault the dog as much as I do the owner but the dog is going to pay the price. He won't survive biting me again. That owner is a low life SOB!

So, you would entice the dogs to come on your property in order to do them harm?
Where in the hell did you get "entice"???
Food on the ground or livestock in a pasture. If the dog wonders on my property to seek either....Thats not entice.
Its the owner of said dog that "enticed" the animal into leaving his control by not having it on a chain, in a fence, or just trained enough, not to venture out.
If I explode the dog into two, neat, bloodied, chunks of dog matter. I couldn't have done so without the negligence of the owner.
And I fully understand that dogs, cats and hamsters...get out of their containment. I wouldn't air bag a single one unless they attack my livestock, household pet, or kids.
Notice the word, "Attack". Meaning to me, the running of cattle, damage to chicken wire, chasing a turkey. Shows one tooth to my kids. And to air bag the critter would mean I would have to do it on his second trip on to my property. Meaning damage has already occurred and I didn't or couldn't stop it the first time. My yard isn't littered with air bag mines.
So the first trip for any animal onto my property is a freebee. What it did during that trip defines whats waiting for him on the second (unless he was caught in the act the first time and dispatched). I love animals. But I also understand the deference between a house pet and a uncontrolled, kid attacking, livestock killer.
If the animal shows no sign of aggression towards anything I own or family. He can sit on the porch with me all he wants. I enjoy the company of a good dog. Nothing better in the world. Ill even give him a few bites off my BBQ sandwich.
He shows any signs of being stupid to my property...he's getting air bagged, shot, trapped, drowned, straight gutted.
Could you not have made the decision to no longer go down this road & get "boxed" in, or am I misunderstanding the situation?
I live in a rural area so the traffic is very fast and the roads are narrow. We have a lot of dump druck traffic and they drive like maniacs! I ride the paved shoulder of the highway until it runs out. Then I ride the 5 residential dead end roads for a total of 16.5 miles. I don't have a lot of options unless I pack the bike up and haul it somewhere else....10 miles each way.
That being said....the correct solution for this problem is NOT to have them run me off! I should not be attacked by a dog that is known to be violent and willing to attack Humans. They have an obligation to keep their animals under control ESPECIALLY after one of them attacks and injures a person who was on the public road doing nothing wrong. These dogs are all running loose even though thay have a huge fenced in back yard.

baby ya got me i was scrolling fast had to comebackNaggers....
I had a problem with a dog that lived about 2blocks down the street from me and was always hanging around
because I had 3 female poodles that we bred . Her dog was always peeing on my bushes and trying to get in the back yard
so I took the dog back to its house and told the woman she needed to keep him tied in her yard , OH no I cant do that he is to high strung to be tied up.
Couple of days later here comes her dog , the wife takes the dog to the garage and paint's it a nice Highway Yellow and never saw that
dog again.

When I delivered newspapers on my bike as a kid I continually dealt with dogs that chased me for sport. I'm sure they were bullying me! After being bitten on ankle my dear Mother fixed up a concoction of amonia and water for be to put in my water pistol. One squirt in the snout of the offending dogs with that elixer did wonders and they actually started running away when they saw me the next day. If you use the water pistol with amonia trick, be sure to get one that DOES NOT leak if you're going to carry it in your pocket. Trust me on that tip.
heheh, gotta get a new serpa i guess - or do you prefer kangaroo?
Charlie....I think those are the elastic band holsters that go around the belly. (I'd need an XXL size....snicker)
