During my run this morning, I went on a trail that passed by two backyards. One had an aggressive dog and it was between medium and small in size (it was shiba inu, so it wasn't tiny like chihuahuas, but big enough to cause concern if it was actually out and running loose). Even though it didn't bother me because it was in the backyard and it wouldn't ever figure out how to get out of it, I used my stun gun (for the noise only) to see if it worked and made the dog stop barking and snarling at me and my dog. I even put my stun gun really close to the fence. The dog did not back off or run away! Now I'm worried that my stun gun won't work on a really big, really aggressive dog that is out running loose! I think if I actually have to use it on a dog (zapping electricity into it), it is too late and the dog will most likely bite me or my dog because stun guns are meant for very close range...within arm's reach. I have to find pepperspray and hope that the wind doesn't use it against me! I think I'm more afraid of an aggressive dog than an aggressive coyote because I have almost been chased down by a very big, very aggressive dog (stray/homeless) before. I just got lucky that two city workers in separate trucks were randomly driving around at the right time and saw me trying to get away.
