Yeah, that's uh, that's great advice anon, thanks.

Well obviously don't stick around

I own a dog and as soon as I see somebody coming I put his leash back on. But then nothing pisses me off when other dog owners don't do this. They say "he's friendly" then I say well I'm not.

>-Is there any dog armguard equipment you can buy to protect against bites?

I wrap my arms with these, cost about $60. Designed for paramedic/hospital/police. Apparently people tend to bite quite a bit, and those bites lead to serious infections a majority of the time, so they offer products like these.

I bought anti-snake bite guards for my ankles, and those worked quite well, so I found some anti-bite guards for my wrists as well.

They're designed for human bites, but it says on their site that they will withstand dog bites as well.

I'll never forget this one time I was walking my dog and thought i was far enough away to take her off leash. She is a good dog and even if we saw people or another dog I would have plenty of time to call her over and put the leash on. Not a wanderer by any means either.

But there was this little girl who was hiking with her sister and older brother or something and just seeing the dog off the leash made her really anxious and angry, she told me to put my dog on the leash so i did, even though Zoe was tired and doing nothing but panting and standing by me.

What struck me was that I had no idea people could be that afraid of dogs, especially when they arent acting aggressive or even showing interest and I realized I was wrong for not putting her on leash as soon as I saw people. That little girl probably had a traumatic experience with a dog but either way you can never expect people to treat your animals the way you do, so it's best to keep them close until you know the person is cool or move on with leash on.

If i was in your position op I would have made them pay for the coat or call the police because that dog is out of control and those people obviously need a reality check.

Please don't punish dogs for shitty owners. Rabid dogs are a whole other issue but in most other cases, pumping a dog full of lead is incredibly stupid and ruthless.

I've encountered some pretty insane dogs while hiking and I dealt with it by being disarming and friendly with the dog. Hopefully you've been around dogs your whole life and you don't shit yourself at the sight of a chihuahua. If you stay relaxed and don't get amped up, it's pretty easy to calm the dog down by just patting it a bit and not freaking out. Don't get overly excited and friendly yourself though, otherwise the dog might get even more pumped up.

You overreacted for sure. If your sleeve was actually torn up, then you should've pointed it out to the dog owners, who should've immediately apologized profusely. If not, then that's grounds for a lawsuit.

The dog owners were retarded and they deserve 100% of the blame. Remember, dogs are domesticated, not docile, not wild. There are no shitty dogs, just shitty owners and unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about that sometimes. Killing an innocent dog won't fix anything.

>>622637
>Killing an innocent dog won't fix anything.

If it prevents you from getting viciously mauled, yes, it does fix something.

Dogs kill more people every year than Great White Sharks.

>>622637
>Please don't punish dogs for shitty owners.
So if the dogs owner is a POS and it reflects in the dogs behavior shouldn't we then punish the dog owners parents for raising an asshole who can't take care of a dog?

>>622532
I train my dog, he has a happy disposition and doesn't stray from my side unless I give him commands to chase small game.

This thread is now about Great White Shark bites.

My questions [sic] to /out/

What do *you* do when **you** encounter hostile sharks in these situations?

Should I include ***more*** asterisks for dramatic effect?

Is it affect or effect? (Actually I know).

Is there any shark armguard equipment you can buy to protect against bites?

Do you carry? Would you have drawn on a unknown shark that had candygram in site [sic]?

Did I overreact or underreact or nonreact or reactivity to this situation?

What should I do in the past?

ITT shit that never happened

A dog charging at me in a less than friendly manner without a leash, without anyone within five feet of the dog, is getting mag dumped.

/story

>>622532
>I realize it's unrealistic to leash a dog when you're jogging/cycling a trail
Why? It seems pretty realistic to me and quite easy to do.

Hey /out/, what is the best way to scare away dogs?

I'm a bicycle tourer and often even the most docile dogs go batshit insane when seeing a bike. I thought maybe pepper spray would help, but I don't want to hurt the dog. Any ideas?

>>622532
You should have stopped them ask asked that they pay for your jacket. You underreacted. If it were me I would have shot that dog as soon as he bit me.

Also, you have the wrong approach to dogs. Don't grab the neck. You've got to work the dog's own instincts/behavior in your favor. I've found raising your arms above, standing your ground, and when they dog doesn't back down from that you have to yell. And I mean somewhere between a growl and a yell telling the dog "NO" and "GET THE FUCK BACK" or whatever you choose. IF that doesn't work the dog is getting kicked in the face before I shoot it. Standing your ground and yelling are matters of who is the alpha. Most dogs will back down to a person towering over them. When they don't it's time to kill them. Raising your arms makes you suddenly appear bigger which is normally frightening to them.

>>622532
I fucking hate stupid ass dog owners that let their giant ass dogs run wild.

You should've pumped that dogs ass full of lead OP. Especially since the owners didn't even say sorry.

>>622532
Kicking them in face usual does the trick, not that I have any other option, can't carry guns here.

>>622835
Pussy.
They don't make dogs so big or scary that I can't take them down with virtually no risk of harm to myself. Also it seems that most hiking buddy dogs are medium small to medium sized.

>Killing an innocent dog won't fix anything.

It would fix the owner.

>>622532
I dont really believe your story. Even if the story is true, you are an idiot for putting your hand in front of a barking dogs face. You just keep walking without showing fear and kick it if it gets too close. You are a pussy. You cant even fend off a domesticated animal without resorting to using a gun. This is why most gunowners are pussies; they look for reasons to use their gun when they dont have to.

>>623014
Im with this guy. Where im from people arent retarded enough to let a dog that would attack someone for no reason off leash.

Also if u cant fend off a dog without a weapon then your pretty weak. Unless it was one of those russian bear dog fuckers a swift kick or push would keep it at bay until its owners caught up

>>622571
Has a snake attacked you while wearing your anti-snake bite guards? Are they worth it?

>>623014
>people in new and dangerous situations must act perfectly!

Fuck you man. He didn't even shoot the dog. Some people didn't have dogs around them growing up, and so they have less of a working knowledge of how they tick. He didn't behave perfectly, but did nothing that would cause a properly trained dog to attack anyone.

Next time it might be a little kid on the trail who gets their arm torn to bits and a fear of dogs for the rest of their life. The biggest mistake he made was not shooting a "domesticated" animal that showed it was perfectly capable of attacking a human with very little or no provocation.

>>622901
nice, i really don't think people have a right to fucking shoot dogs before they try everything else.
try to dissuade the dog, kick it smack it if it's not convinced then shoot it.
not just "o my god that dog looks scary *magdump intensifies*"

>>623014
i ran into a dog as i came down a hill it was 3am i was surprised wtf the dog does there it had no collar no owner in sight.
i was like "hello dogy we are not gonna have a problem are we?"
dog walks past me then suddenly maybe caught my scent and starts to act tough.
i'm like turn around and "excuse me sir!?" then he shut the fuck up and we all went our separate ways.
i didn't even reach for my belt knife i was a bit annoyed tho that a fucking mutt tries to impress me in the middle of nowhere.

>>623137
It's more like
>This animal just attacked me and is capable of causing serious injury or death to me. My life is more valuable, so I must regrettably shoot it

And
>If this dog gets away, it will probably do the same to someone else who may be much younger or older than me and be easily maimed or killed by the encounter

A dog that attacks humans without aa very good reason (unprovoked attack of dog or owner, intruder into property it has been trained to protect, for example) is a walking hazard and liability and most places in the world will mandate that such a dog be put down anyway.

Douche move op. Should have shot it. now some poor kid will get bitten and its all your fault.

I've had to shoot two dogs while out hiking just for charging me aggressively. Thank god for leash laws you get off Scott free and as a bonus the owner cried like a bitch

>>623155
one day you will get shot tho you self entitled little bitch
for reasons

>>623161
>entitled

Yep. Entitled not to be bitten by dogs or their faggot owners. Maybe I will get shot but until then I will remove as many shitty dogs and their owners as Allah will permit. PBUH

>>623102
There are discrepancies in the story. I dont believe it actually happened. He says he "put his arm up to the dogs neck to push it away"..how the fuck do you do that without either being a midget or fighting off a six foot tall dog. Did op get on his knees to push the dog sway? The dog was chewing on his arm and instead of immediately kicking it he unholstered a pistol and "waited for a clear shot". The story is made up, it is bullshit

I had to pepper spray a threatening dog once. Dog owners are ALWAYS clueless and fail to control their animal.

Remember, if you get injured, you can't sue a dog, but it's owners are another story. File a police report for documentation and take pics of injuries.

>>623169
That fact that OP hasn't responded at all pretty much confirms it's fake as far as I'm concerned.

Obvious troll is obvious

Nonetheless, if someone shoots my dog I will murder them without question. Now my dog stays on a leash and would never bite anyone, but he is big and potentially scary.

Still, kill him and I will have to kill you. Just like if my son tried to rob you or beat you up and you shot him - it doesn't even matter who is in the right at that point. Revenge is pretty black and white.

>>623250
>Just like if my son tried to rob you or beat you up and you shot him

Then you're not part of the problem. Stop being a tough guy faggot. You wouldn't go to prison for murder no matter how much you love your dog.

I wouldn't have waited but I hope you got ID and pressed charges. Its owners have failed it and it needs to be destroyed. It is demonstrably a danger to others without provocation. It will hurt someone else.
>-Is there any dog arm guard equipment you can buy to protect against bites?

I can't really believe it was content just to thrash around on your arm or that you would let it though.

>>623041
>>623371
I wear snake gaiters when I'm hunting on the desert side. They're warmer than necessary and entirely precautionary but worth the piece of mind that time of year. I haven't even been bit but I have definitely startled snakes before and once it gets colder they don't seem to make near as much warning noise. Sometimes drunkenly striking and missing without warning.

>>622890
Think of it this way anon, the pepper spray doesn't hurt them, they hurt themselves.
That's capsaicin science nigger, look it up. Inflammation occurs because the nerves think they are hurting but that is the only potential for tissue damage. Dogs love to chase but if they're ballsy enough to get close enough to nip, especially with you just rolling down the public road and commanding them to fuck off, fuck em. If you're worried, maybe use foam instead of spray so their dipshit owners can tell they got sprayed with something.

I know this isn't the right thread but I am desperately in love with the Swedish elkhound (Jämthund) only problem is that I live in America and cannot find any puppies for sale. I will be forever in debt to the anon that helps me find where to buy one

Kick the mother fucking attacking dog in the throat, end of story. I've yet to see a dog not back down when I've taken an alpha "yell at it" stance but I would not hesitate to take it out.

It's unleashed, untrained, attacking. Easy decision.

Otherwise dogs are great when they are someone else's. I don't need a barking shit machine. I like to be able to up and go on a whim. Dogs require you taking them or leaving them and arranging care.

Jogger here. If your dog comes within range I will kick it. The base of my shoe in the snout. I've done it before, I'll do it again.

I can not tell the difference between a friendly dog and a shit dog. Therefore I assume all dogs are shit. An owner telling me otherwise does not change the situation.

>tfw my dog is well-behaved off leash and avoids getting into touching range of strangers but I have to leash her just about everywhere because cunts like OPs

I haven't had any dogs attack me, but I've seen and heard of dumb as shit owners walking dogs on dog-free walking trails. Pretty annoying when you have a mentally impaired person who is scared of them walking with you.

>>623553
>my dog is well behaved but I have to keep it on a leash in case it runs at someone half a mile away, well out of my control, barking and snarling, then bites them when they freak out

Sure thing buddy, shitty dog owners are like shitty parents, theirs is always "well behaved" and a "good boy" who dindu nuffin. If your dog was well behaved then it wouldn't do what OP described and if you were a good owner you wouldn't let it get that far away.

OP was morally and legally OK to shoot that dog, and he didn't when he saw the owners out of some kind of decency, and somehow he's the problem? Get a grip.

Every time we have a thread about this kind of thing on /out/, there's always the kind of people who seem to think that the burden of safety lies on the person encountering the dog and not the owner. If your dog is such a pathetically trained animal that something as simple as what OP did is enough to cause it to bite then you have no business owning one.

These people will make excuses, saying things like "you're an idiot, everyone knows not to do that! You know nothing about dogs! Stop being a beta!" This is fucking stupid, because
a. not everyone grew up around dogs, and so many people do not understand how the body language works
b. often these people are under stress, due to the fact that a large predatory animal is running at them threateningly
c. it disregards children and people of smaller stature
d. it does not work for all dogs, especially poorly trained ones
e. it assumes that the dog will respond properly to an unknown human
f. if it doesn't work, you've let the dog get you in a very dangerous position

My biggest fear is c, because kids are very easily killed by what would normally be considered a small dog. If your dog is going to do what OP described to an adult, then what do you think it would do to a scared, irrational child in the time it takes for their parents to come to the rescue?

>>623540
I don't work security. If your dog touches me I will break it's neck.
You're a pussy if you need a dog to do your job for you.

I've got this half chessie, half lab that I want to do out doors stuff with. I would never let him off leash because I actually care about my dog.

But then i remembered I want to fetch with him off docks and stuff. I don't hunt, but all this four month old puppy wants to do is fetch, all day long, so I'm at a loss about how to have safe outdoor fun times.

>>622532
My cousin was jogging and rounded a blind corner where a sorority girl had let her dog off the leash. The dog big him and he had to go to the hospital for stitches, antibiotics a a tetanus shot. When he later confronted her with the the $1000+ hospital bill she claimed that he could have been a rapist so the dog wasn't at fault and she had no financial responsibility. He sued her and won for payment of hospital bills, pain and suffering, loss of wages and legal fees. Mainly out of spite since she was in irresponsible, entitled cunt. Well over 10k in the end.
There was also a court petition to put the dog down but I don't know what became of that.

Moral of story: no one cares about your dog except you. No one trusts it except you. They can and are unpredictable despite them being your 'buddy'. Anyone is within their right to defend themselves against a potential or actual attack.

>>623540
Honest question, can't you jog with a dog on leash? Never had a dog, but looking to get one soon, have always wondered if it'd be difficult to do so

>all these idiots who hate guns and gun owners
>on an outdoor board

What the hell is wrong with you people?

And anybody here who would attack someone for defending themselves against a dog is a violent psychopath who needs help. if your dog gets shot for biting someone unprovoked it deserved it and there is no moral or rational way for you to claim otherwise.

>>623596
This. I hate all these fags saying they'd kill someone for defending themselves against an aggressive dog, enjoy life in jail or being killed along side your dog.

>>623137
>o my god that dog looks scary
No it's "Oh my god this dog is attacking me after dissuading it, therefore I am going to eliminate the threat" You didn't read my post.

>>623540
>unleashed if you have a mouth guard
I use a remote controlled electric collar(it also does vibrate and sound). I have full control of my dog without a leash when I run her. She's also VERY aware that humans are alpha to her because I've trained her as such. This is the main problem with dogs that are aggressive outside of their own property. I understand a dog being frightened, because my dog still does this without rhyme or reason. Generally she's friendly, but if she doesn't feel comfortable with someone she runs AWAY from them. She's never shown aggression toward people or dogs, she just doesn't let some people pet her. She's also 2.

>>623540
>>623553
If you are on public property, your dog goes on a leash, end of story. There is literally no defense against this.

>>623553
>being prepared to defend yourself makes you a cunt

Its a good thing not all dog owners are as stupid as you.

I don't hate dogs at all but dog owners can be cunts.

What i hate most is when you have to go into someones house and they have a dog. The dog is barking and growling at you, visibly pissed, and the owner is like "Oh don't mind Billy he's harmless!". Yeah right, it wants me dead.

The worst was when I had to help a neighbor who had locked themselves out. They wanted me to climb through a tiny window into the kitchen and unlock the door from the inside. I did it of course, but they had a dog, sat in the kitchen, barking at me like crazy for climbing through the window. The owner was saying it's fine and not serious. The Dog didn't attack but I'm pretty sure the only reason it didnt was because it was an old dog, about 13. It was a big rottweiler, i think I'd have been fucked if it was younger.

Can dog owners please take it more seriously that while their dog may be loving to them it isn't to everyone?

>>623651
Dog hater here. I don't care how friendly your dog is. I don't want to pet it and I don't want it touching me. I will never feel comfortable around dogs and I don't care to be.

>>622532
Here's what I would do (I work at a dog kennel and break up dog fights on a weekly basis)
First when you see the dog charging you don't stand there, be ready to knee the dog in the chest as he is running towards you. If he is still after you and hasn't went into submission shove you hand own it's throat then pull your hand out and bear hug the dog until the owner comes.
That is what I would have done

>>623535
So do you just go around kicking dogs in the face?
I'm surprised no one has beaten the shit out of you yet lol
>implying this isn't b8

>>623659
He was clearly talking about dogs that chase him while he's running you retard.

>>623660
Dogs will naturally chase you by instinct and it is easy to tell if they are being friendly or not, don't be stupid and pay attention to body language
Is everybody so afraid for their life that they beat the shit out of every possible threat?
It's a dog. A FUCKING DOG
DOGS ARENT THAT HARD TO HANDLE /OUT/

>>623662
If I'm in a public place, dogs should be on leashes, end of story. As a runner I have no problem giving a poorly trained dog a quick kick with my heel if he's getting to close to me.

>>623662
Oh look, its this stupid argument again.

Most people have little if any understand of dog body language, why does this continue to shock you people.

No better than the people who think a dog is somehow easy to stop and not a threat to an adult human despite the obvious fact they do injure or kill people.

>>623670
I've also noticed that the most irresponsible owners tend to go for the largest and most potentially dangerous breeds.

Nah he gets it now. Read the second paragraph:

>What struck me was that I had no idea people could be that afraid of dogs, especially when they arent acting aggressive or even showing interest and I realized I was wrong for not putting her on leash as soon as I saw people.

Turn and run. Dogs run much slower than people on account of their short legs, and get tired quicker because less lung capacity.

If you are tired from already jogging or if you're a smoker, then you can psych the dog out by looking it right in the eyes, baring your teeth and bringing your face close to the dog's to intimidate it. Growl loudly as well and tell it you will eat it's babies. If you have a penis, waggle it in the dog's face for extra humiliation to help break the dog's spirit.

The normal procedure of trying to get on top of the dog then sitting on it while holding its ears. Then see if I can spot its owners.
[spoiler]if I couldn't see any owners I'd take my knife out, depending on the distance to the truck I might wrap it in a tarp, throw it in the back and call animal control.[/spoiler]

>Do you carry? Would you have drawn on a unknown dog that had no master in site?
See above. I'd rather not waste a bullet unless I couldn't sit on the dog.

>Did I overreact or underreact to this situation?
You underreacted. Not saying you should've shot the dog but its owners deserved a lecture.

>What should I do in the future?
Idk, same as me I guess?

OP, whoever said to magdump the dog is a retard.

DO NOT shoot the dog. If the owner hears, he will be on his guard, weapon drawn. If he sees you first you're dead. Either stab the dog or choke it, place its corpse so it's easily visible, hide in the bushes.

Once the owner approaches the corpse, aim your gun at them, tell them to strip, if they do, tell them to turn around, approach them, and slit their throat.

If they do not strip, shoot them.

Remember, only shoot when there's no other option. Silence is your friend.

How fucking dumb are you? Do you really think two OC/CC'ers, one that happens to own a agressive dog, are gonna run into each other on the trail? And then the person happens to be dumb enough to let it off it's leash?

I really hope this is bait, murdering someone because there dog was a bit too jumpy.

And what after? Just leave? Yeah nah eat shit nigger

>>623596
Unless you're hunting, you dont need a gun. People try to find excuses to use their gun because they hop on any chance they can to play cowboy. I.e. george zimmerman, darren wilson, that cop in south carolina, everybody who posts on /k/, people who condone shooting domesticated animals, etc...

>>623815
Pretty much this, for both the dog and the guy but I doubt you'd get trouble from either

Get yourself a highpowered rifle and a thermal scope to pick off dogs/dog owning families. It can also be worth investing in your own predator drone station to clear hostile life in a much wider radius. Having said that the only guaranteed defence is a pre-emptive nuclear strike, so don't forget to dirty bomb anywhere you plan to be /out/ a few days before setting off.

If Zimmerman did not have a gun he would have been beaten to death, would you prefer that?

And domesticated animals kill people every day. But you apparently think its just fine for people to not train their dogs and cause injuries/deaths.

OP here again.

All these posts saying I should've kicked the dog in the throat or choke slammed it, I like dogs. I don't want to hurt somebody's dog, but from these comments here I have decided if a dog is coming at me, and it's more than 20 feet from it's owner, I'm shooting it.

I obviously fucked up by even allowing it to come into contact with me, it could've had rabies for fuck sake.

I fucked up again by not putting it down, because as the other anons have stated, now that poorly trained dog could go and attack some little kid who cannot defend themselves.

I fucked up /out/, I'm sorry. I will not take the dog owners feelings into consideration. I will just shoot the motherfucker, protect myself and others. peace

>>623908
I don't care. You would be dead. As if I'm not a quicker draw than some fucking nerd who would "magdump" an overly excited dog.

I might not even kill you then, just wing you and pull you deeper into the brush so I can mouthfuck you to death with my maglite.

Is that why the police use K9s to attack?
Is that why dog leashes are used to handle dogs?
Is that why there are 'behavioral schools' for dogs?

you're right; it is a fucking dog and you're the piece of shit owner

you're the kind of person that brings a screaming baby to a nice restaurant and gets mad when others give you a dirty look

OP if you are alone you must be ready to shoot first, shoot to kill, and you must be prepared to make a mistake of killing an innocent. Your life has value, OP, I can't stand the thought of you hurting, you must kill.

Park ranger here. I've run into quite a few agressive dogs, never actually been attacked because I have this tiny "noise gun" on my keychain that'll send out an ultrasonic noise. Works great.

>>624131
>Is that why the police use K9s to attack?
k9 dogs are sadly there to die instead of a human
also they are specifically selected and trained they are pretty much the equivalent of human kung-fu / whatever martial arts master among dogs. most dogs only knows how to fight other dogs.
>Is that why dog leashes are used to handle dogs?
dog leash is to protect the dog you moron
>Is that why there are 'behavioral schools' for dogs?
waht? the schools are because owners tend to be incompetent and don't know whit about dogs. they say it's the dog that goes to the school but really the owner that gets taught shit first hand.

The amount of stupid in here is amazing. The scenario isn't as black and white as people want to say it is.

>OP had an adrenaline rush and reality is probably different, classic with traumatic events.
>People who dislike dogs want an excuse to kill them and their owners.
>People who think they're the exception to the rules and can over power a dog unscathed without conflict.

OP, you indeed overreacted on your story telling but you didn't act enough in your situation.

If the dog presents any threat to you, shoot it. Most if not all US states (I'm assuming you're American, could be wrong) view dogs as property and as such laws of containment are in place to protect you and your right to defend yourself. Talk to a police officer or attorney, they can tell you better for your area. Just ask, don't hire one.

In my state if the owner had fired back at you or attacked you they would be arrested and liable for damages done by them and their dog(s). If they did nothing but call the police after you shot their uncontrolled animal the police would only really respond because you discharged a firearm on public land not designated for hunting. But as they found out why you did they'd get your statement and deem you the victim. Do NOT shoot the owner. Killing the dog is one thing, but if the owner poses no threat and didn't unleash the dog on you or attack and you shot him; that's murder.

That being said, you were tired and obviously don't own dogs. The dog was a out of control and made you uneasy but was probably playing and got carried away.

My wife has a friend who laughs and jokes when their dogs hump people. They also get pretty rough and their neighbors dog constantly gets out and charges people. We don't go to their house very often. I say that to say that most people don't deem some of the dogs behavior as unfit and don't see them as threatening. Obviously you did and so would the cops.

Some people are bad owners and sadly the dogs are the ones that pay for it.

My dog is hard to handle, even for me.
Got her free from a husky breeder who had given up on her. Serious nerve problems and attacks before she barks, so can be very unpredictable. Very few people, even experienced dog lovers, can read her body language properly.

She could eat you for breakfast anon.. but she won't, because I keep that threat on a leash.

>>624174
>This
Because you can never predict insane dog owners. And fuck guns.

>>623647
Except for taking responsibility and being accountable for the actions of your dog when it is off the leash. I run my dog off leash on public roads all the time because she knows what to do when we're out running. If she bites someone I'll accept the consequences. I expect the same of everyone else.

>>625072
Insert the repetative "all dog owners think their dog is a good dog".

You are willing to have your dog put down because you don't bother to stay safe?

even if you know and trust your dogs behaviour you can never predict the behavior of random strangers on the trail. If they provoke the dog the dog will still be blamed for biteys, and if they get scared and harm the dog it is your fault that she gets injured.

you will not feel the consequences, the dog will feel the consequences.

Haven't read all the replies yet, but there are a fuck load of people saying "shoot the dog".
Which sorry, but thats some total bullshit, if you need a gun to defend yourself from a dog, you're weak.
I'm from the UK, we don't have guns (and 99.9% of us don't have knives either) you know what we do when we encounter a dog like that?
1) make ourselves big, and make a lot of noise, thats normally enough to get a dog to fuck off. If that doesn't work
2) kick it. That will make it fuck off.
We don't kill someones pet just because it charged at us.
Plus OP, you did everything wrong, the dog was probably just greeting you. The moment you put your hand on it's neck, you fucked up, at that point the dog thought YOU were aggresive.

I dunno man. I OC/CC but don't see it as being a first option sort of thing. If the dog isn't gonna fuck off after I drive my cowboy boot into it's chest or deck it in it's head, then it's gotta go.

Then again, I dunno, I've never been attacked. Maybe I'll puss out and draw first. I can't say. I'd rather not unless I absolutely have to, however.

>>625088
>the dog will still be blamed for biteys
Yeah. I'm going to punish her before she ever gets to the legal system. I have complete control over my dog, she wears an electric collar that stops her dead in her tracks when I need it to- I rarely have to shock her anymore. It's all about having control of your dog and being held responsible when you don't. A leash is just a way for a bystander to feel that the owner has control. I've seen plenty of dogs walking their owners while they were leashed. I've had to move my dog (off leash) when a leashed dog was dragging the owner toward her. A leash is a sense that the owner is in control.

>>623915
A report from a weapon being fired is normally very loud and should scare the animal. I would fire into the ground first in an attempt to scare the animal. If that didn't work, RIP Fido.

>>625656

I never said this. I don't hit my dog. Hitting a dog only confuses them. It is far more effective when I scold her and assert dominance by pushing her head to the ground, etc.

I shock her when I need to stop her immediately, like when I first took her off the leash and she tried to go play with the unleashed dogs wandering the neighborhood.

>>625673
>I shock her when I need to stop her immediately,

A spray in the face from a water bottle is very effective. I carry two bottles when I bike down this one road with a dog that chases, so I have plenty of ammo. My grandpa said he used to put some ammonia in with his water, but that never seemed necessary to me.

Trying to kick an aggressive dog is a good way to get bit in the leg. The only dogs slow enough to let you kick them are the ones not serious about biting anyway. Dogs should be on a leash.

you can smack around any dog as you like the dumb fucker will not even know what hit him. i used to be a boxer humans (including all martial artists) can't defend from a good punch once it's underway and they dropped a hand just a bit too low dogs are like sloths in this regard.

>>622532
NEVER kill a dog, even if it's attacking you or your spawn. That is a living creature with feelings and emotions and you should not end its life for upsetting it and causing it to defend itself.

Who is this guy? I see him everywhere. Have the elderly found /out/?

Yosemite National Park, 6 years ago
On a rim trail between North Dome and Upper Yosemite Falls, end of October
Been out for 5 days, alone having a great time
On trail hear noise, thinking bear maybe, large German Shepherd comes around bend, stops, head goes down, growls start, full bore run at me, can't get my pack off, dog leaps, I put up my left arm, he hits me, about 120 pounds, latches onto my forearm and over we go, breaks my forearm, bits my upper arm, thigh, and face, I am screaming, manage to get my knife off my strap, start stabbing, I am blind from blood in my eyes, get knife in dogs chest from the side, bear hug him and roll to use my weight to keep him down, just kept stabbing, he stops moving, I stop stabbing
He is dead, I felt dead, looks like a horror film, two people show up, man and woman, French tourists, not their dog, help me, arm gets a tourniquet, lots of blood, they pulled the dogs collar and tags, and we start toward the Upper Falls.
Lots of help from people at top of falls, couple of nurses and an EMT, somone starts down for rangers, group starts me down, meet up with rangers, some help me down others head for attack location
Ended up in hospital for two weeks, nerve damage to my face, and arm, lost 3/4 use of my left arm, scars all over.
Owners were found at the lodge, went on falls trail hike, dog took off, they were tired, went back to room for rest, figured dog would come back, not their problem, dog loves kids, never aggressive, was trained as a guard dog
Two years to sue, get judgement, they claim bankruptcy, I get shit, they sued me for killing dog, jury says I owe $1500.
Park service gave them a $50 fine for unleased dog.
Keep your damm dogs leashed, voice control is uncontroled, leash your fucking dogs.

>>622637
Hippie cunt

Unless your hand is on your gun at all times (and your an idiot if it is) you're more likely to shoot your leg when the dog hits you than you are to stop the dog.

If you really want to stop the dog, grab it by the lower jaw and get your knuckles into the roof of its mouth. This is going to suck, you will get cut unless you do it perfectly, but you can force it onto its back and elbow it with your other arm until it stops fighting. When you let go it is very unlikely to bite again.

>>630198
wow someone else on this board know how to fight canines! i didn't expect this.

>>622637
lmfao. you've prob never been around a truly aggressive dog.

I've worked with dogs for years and there are some that are literally impossible to calm down/coax/avoid them ripping your ass apart.
Almost always a genetic issue or stupid fucking cunt owners (looks to be the owners fault in this scenario)

Don't be so presumptuous when it sounds like you have no experience with canines past the doggies you meet out n about and ur friends pooches and the occasional dog you've owned.
Trust me, that's not very much experience.

>>622901
>matters of who is the alpha

stop. don't use animal planet as a reliable resource of canine behavior.
Dogs aren't trying to be an "alpha"

just no.

>>622939
u my friend have not been around very many dogs.

>>623169
my 40lb dog can jump high enough to be in grown mans face, nbd. That's not that hard to believe.
and then i have a mastiff that can stand on his hind legs and is taller than some grown men.

>>623471
>alpha
plz stop

>>630198
where did you learn this? This sounds terrible.
Even if you do it "perfectly" your hand is still in the dogs fucking mouth.

imagine a 90lb dog grabs your hand and shakes their head violently. You're going to have nerve damage.

>>630382
it's fine i have done it, you should have gloves on tho their teeth is sharp.
they can't exert much force with their lower jaw what you are grabbing (must not slip this is important) and they can't properly close on if you knuckles rest on their roof of mouth.

basically you not only disable the dogs only weapon but take perfect control of the dog.

or get your fingers bit off if you fuck it up.

>>630395
one more note you must really squeeze the lower jaw and force it downwards. also the canines are useless unless the dog can pull on them it's this shaking and pulling motion you can stop by grabbing the dog with your other hand and pushing and twisting the jaw down.
then you can grab an opposite leg and easily turn over the biggest strongest dog on it's back, a knee in the neck till it passes out of just break the ribcage and kill it.

There is a technique for controling a dog that doesnt involve shooting them... a few in fact... if a dog has a piece of you like your hand or something narrow you push it down the dogs throat. theyll choke and let go...

If the dog has your arm lunge at the dog and tackle it. once youre on top you have the weight advantage and the dog cant move. take your other hand and push it into the dogs throat. this will make the dog release...

if you are responding to a dog attack then straddle the dog and squeeze your legs together. the dog doesnt have enough leverage between you and the other person to wiggle free. if you own a dog then try this next time you need to give them eyedrops or something like that... after you have control of the dog between your legs get it in a headlock with one hand and push into its throat with the other hand. this will stop the dog biting you once its free and itll let go of the other person.

In my city about 1 in 3 dog owners has their dog off leash in public places. Big dogs like German Shepherds, Huskies, and even a Great Dane have all dashed at me sans owner, leaving me maybe a second or two to decide if he's friendly or not before he's on top of me. I like dogs, I like animals, but mostly I like dogs. I don't know if I could live with myself if I shot someone's pet without being 100% certain I was about to be severely mauled.

That said, fuck you if you let your dog off leash in public areas like the lobby of an apartment or a busy city park. No one is required to first be bitten by an attacking dog (or other large animal) before using lethal force. Humans get to defend themselves from wild animals, that's part of being on top of the food chain.

>>630485
anon if you can't ell a dog is attacking you or not you need glasses. especially if you had dog you said you liked dogs.
the problem is sometimes a dog apparently doesn't notice you or want any shit from you as it passes you catches your scent and he is behind you when he decides he wants to have a bone with you. so keep an eye on dogs do not ever get scared of them no running no little girl screams and stuff. just plant your feet and tell him "no".
i have had dogs bit me in the ass after passing me by like minding their business, but it was partially my fault i didn't keep an eye on them.

>>623913

>>622939
Are you serious?

You've probably only seen dogs that sit around the house and then their owners bring them to their cabin or to the dog park for a couple of days every other month.

Hunting dogs, or even dogs that get walked on the daily are giant things of muscle.

>>622901
Do you know anything about dogs? If you challenge an aggressive dog it will bite you. Especially if its because of fear, which is most of the time the reason why a dog is being aggressive.

>>623250
>Nonetheless, if someone shoots my dog I will murder them without question. Now my dog stays on a leash and would never bite anyone, but he is big and potentially scary.
^^this.
I have a pit and a malamute. they are both excellent off leash , and they are extremely friendly, but because they are "scary", im prepared to mag dump on anyone who harms them.

>>630595
hardest or not you can break it. you can break any bone of a dog.
well at least i can.

>>630417
>this will make the dog release...
a pit will not release tho you got to crush the windpipe unless there is help like someone with a prybar.

>>630647
>they are both excellent off leash

This has been covered over and over. It does not matter how good you think your dogs are. If you are on public property, keep them leashed at all times. Doing otherwise is completely irresponsible.

>>626816
Sorry, I've just never liked dogs. I find them to be noisy and stupid. I'm not going to go out of the way to hurt your dogs, I just don't want them to be anywhere near me.

>>630417
for normal dogs not crazy one like pits
it usually work is you stick your fingers in their nostril and pull back to open their mouth
sticking your hand in a dogs mouth to get an other dog or person free usually not ends well. i got my fingers bit in bone deep once.

>>630661
i agree tho chihuahuas are not the same as big breed.

>>630508
Did I say I couldn't tell if a dog was friendly or not, or did I say when a dog is dashing at me I have only a second or two to decide if he is friendly or not? If a dog runs up to me off leash and I think it's going to attack, I'm shooting it, it's that simple. I'm not playing stare-down with a dog, I'm not sticking my hand near it's mouth, and I'm not going to be mauled because I'm hesitant about it's owner's feelings or hoping it's going to be a small bite vs a big chomp. Even though I very much like dogs (like I said before), but I would sleep sound if I shot one while truly fearing for my safety. Leave your dog on leash when in public areas so everyone can just have a nice, quiet day.

>I'm shooting it, it's that simple.

My dog/puppy and I were attacked 2 days ago. Mine was on a leash and theirs wasn't. The dog and owners where walking the opposite direction when it charged us. I tried to put myself between the dog and my dog but that didn't work. Their dog pinned my dog down and wasn't doing the "alpha pin the dog down til it offers neck and stop" thing, it was biting my dog hard. I kicked it as hard as I could while drawing my pistol and I tried to kick it away from my dog so I wouldn't accidentally shoot my dog. The last kick hurt it and it stopped so I just ran off a few yards. I got the licence plate of the car and turned them over to animal control and they are going to ticket the owner. My dog had a puncture wound on its leg.

After seeing what that dog did and hearing my dog scream never again. I'm with you. Your dog comes at me and my dog in anger and it's gonna die.

>>630722
shows you what you should do in a scenario rather than pulling a gun just give it a good kick
seriously carry-fags try to solve everything in life with their gun.

>>630731
Being attacked by a large dog is lethal force. Shooting with a gun is lethal force. I see no problem with proportioning your defense to the severity of attack. If the dog wants to squirt me with a supersoaker I'll gladly grab my garden hose, but an attacking dog wants to sink it's teeth into you and shake until you die.

>>630722
i noticed something tho when we still had dogs
when my dog was on a leash it always tried to rip into every fucking male dog
when i let him go it usually only got to a little posturing and pissing contest

>>630731
I kicked it as hard as I could about 5 times as it was biting and attacking my dog. Next time it doesn't get that far. And as usual I'm yelling "call off your dog" and they did nothing.

>>630735
>Being attacked by a large dog is lethal force.
if you are a 3yo little girl that is. you see this is where i must beg to differ. dogs are dogs they are not rambos with rocket launchers. i can't even count how many times i had to handle an aggressive dog or break up a fight. never occurred to me to kill the dog i just wanted to kill the owner a few times.

>>630740
Half of all dog attack fatalities were full grown adults in 2014. 22 of 42.

http://www.dogsbite.org/dog-bite-statistics-fatalities.php

>>630742
you mean elderly and children mostly. also there is a huge difference between one dog and two dogs i must admit i would not like to tango with more than one.

>>630744
Elderly is included in that number but not children. Of the 20 who were not adults, 1 was a teenager and 19 were children. Old people don't deserve dead by dog attack, neither do young people. In fact, any human life is worth more than that of an animal.

>>630744
>>630747
>36-years old, was killed by a pack of pit bulls belonging to John Chester Smith, the owner of C.J.'s Garage. Johnson had driven to the business to have his car serviced. When he exited his vehicle, seven pit bulls tore through the bottom of the garage's front gate and savagely attacked him.
in this scenario or anything like it you shoot the dogs and nobody bats an eye. a pack of dogs especially fighting breeds that is lethal.
a fucking husky acting tough on your dog is not.

>>630749
My dog is not going to be injured or die because someone else is a shit dog owner and let their dog off leash to let it attack my smaller dog. I have a responsibility to my pet to protect it. The other dog is going to get shot, and it's the owner's fault.

>>630750
and i tell you you are a whiny little bitch for saying that. accidents happen you must assume the other guy is in good faith and unless he cheers on his dog for ripping into yours you must assume he did not cause the attack on purpose. just handle the fucking dog before it reaches yours it's your responsibility as an owner to protect your dog and don't be a pussy. if you don't think you can handle a dog barehanded which is really not recommended just buy a spray pepper/cs mix is best i hear.
dogs are sometimes ticked on for no good reason doesn't mean they should be put down.
i had this dog once that wanted to kill every dog and despite his size (he was a dachshund) he did try it often enough. then it was up to me to save his stupid ass. i was a kid too weighted half of what i weight now.

>>630756
>he was a dachshund

I can't stand those things. Every single one I've encountered has been a vicious little cunt.

>>630879
yeah i seen a few normal ones they are the exception tho. we got him as an adult he already had this personality. he had the heart of a lion and the body of a tiny tiny pup.

ha had enemies he kept scores and he tried to settle all the time. he never attacked a human tho.

we had a female dachs mix that was all protective instinct if a dog attacked one of our cats went batshit crazy and went for the balls every time.

>>630756
>responsibility

It's the dog owners responsibility to keep their pet on a leash. If I think their dog is going to hurt me or mine, it's my responsibility to stop it. I can't use pepper spray or bear spray because I am a asthmatic. I'm not stupid enough to put my hand near it's mouth or play intersperses alpha leader, I'm going to shoot it, dead. Fuck you if you let your dog off a leash and someone is forced to shoot it. Responsibility begins with yourself and by keeping your own pet on a leash.

How there can be people defending fucking dogs ffs. This is /out/

I wish all dogs would fuckng die

>>630370
I'll take my experience over your feckless opinion.
>>630639
Few dogs are actually aggressive, and when you let them know they won't win the fight they'll back down.

>>631091
most owners with dogs like that LIKE IT WHEN THEY DO WHAT THEY DID TO YOU. It makes them feel safe and protected from people that they literally want to die than be on the same sidewalk let alone path as them. Same as people praising their dog for barking at you on command.

It's not the dogs fault, its the bloody owners fault. Power-tripping and shit, welcome to humanity.

I'm not the other replying anom

The dog won't thrash unless it has a very good reason to want you dead(rabies/you just killed its owner/you just stepped on a puppy). When on their back dogs assume that shaking will get their throats bitten as part of regular dominance.

As for putting your hand in a dogs mouth, yes, if you just let a dog tear into you it will destroy your hand. What you're actually doing though is catching the lower jaw - which is way more narrow than you'd think - behind the canines. As long as your hand is clenching around the jaw the teeth can't get a straight cut into your hand and you hand meat is protecting your tendons and nerves. This will work for most dogs, particularly well on narrow snout dogs like german shepherds. It works poorly on wide jawed dogs like retrievers and very large breeds; like 110 and up big. So unless a newfoundland is attacking it's likely the better move. If you have a chill dog test this out, just without the elbowing part.

The dog usually, Usually, will give up and let go or loosen after it realizes it lost. You can let go of it without reprisal at that point.

>>622532

>-What do *you* do when you encounter hostile dogs in these situations?
avoid pretty much. I actually just stare the dog down.

>-Is there any dog armguard equipment you can buy to protect against bites?
no, you should have just shot it

>-Do you carry? Would you have drawn on a unknown dog that had no master in site?
no. sometimes rifles and shotguns but rarely. Handguns are not something you can carry in Canada. It would be nice to be able to in my area though.

>-Did I overreact or underreact to this situation?
the dog attacked you so maybe you were right. I figure the line is when it was causing more pain than inconvenience. I blame bad dogs on owners who don't take more care. I mean a dog can just be mean but still the owner should be training the dog to not run up to people and tear their sleeve off.

>-What should I do in the future?
shoot the owners. they sound like real assholes.

>>622637
>There are no shitty dogs, just shitty owners

Fucking kek

>>630947
>>631338
now my reply might seem offhanded i did not have time to elaborate, but basically the situation is like this. if my dogs need shooting i will tell you so or shoot it myself. if i don't tell you you can shoot my dog you will not shoot it or you will get rekt. if not right there and then then later doesn't matter how many guns you have there really won't save you.

there might be situations where it's okay: rule of thumb, it's okay to shoot a dog if it would be put down as a consequence later anyways.

also your dog is not as helpless as you make it out to be let go of the leash it can run away, it can also fight for his life giving you or me time to intervene.

a dog menacing an other dog or you is not good enough reason to shoot it. out of a 100 such occasion there is only like 1 that results in any injury. i had innumerably incidents when an unleashed dog came at mine there were even times i couldn't break up the fight before it happened. it's just in their nature. sometimes accidents happen too like one of my dog got his eye popped out of socket by an other dogs teeth. but they are very rare most of the time not even blood flew just a few fluff of hairs.

>>631406
do you think his tight boypussy would stop the gun from properly cycling?

>>631338

If I have to shoot your dog and then you try to assault me, you're a special kind of stupid. Let's not turn the unfortunate situation of me having to ventilate your dog into one where you go to jail afterwards too.

>>631919
i know it surprises you but dogs can be off leash in public legally. if i think my dog possess no danger and not in danger and it's legal to let it go i will most likely. so fuck you.

>>631942
They can be off leash in designated areas. If you're letting them off leash in non-designated areas, then you're a shitty pet owner and part of the problem.

>>631940
no worries dude there will be no telling tales if you shoot my dog.
>>631943
sure thing, mostly ture. but like i said if you meet my dog unleashed you have to assume it was by accident and i will handle it and not shoot it otherwise i fucking murder you. that is all i'm trying to say in this thread.

>>631947
I'm not saying I'll shoot your dog. I'm just saying follow the rules in the area that you're in. All off-leash parks in my city are fenced in areas anyway and I'd imagine most other places are similar.

>>631951
to be honest the designated areas where i live are all shit and dangerous.
so there are places where people de facto let their dogs run and play with each other off the leash and even tho it's technically illegal it works out pretty well.

that is why i said mostly you are right. dogs are much more balanced off the leash and aggressive behavior is more rare and the owner is there and watching the dog play.

>>631953
It's too bad your area doesn't have nicer off-leash parks. I really do like dogs but I'd just like to enjoy running through my local parks in peace without worrying about being chased.

>>631947
You would really make me shoot you and your pet because you're a shitty pet owner and would attack me after you let your dog attack me? I would sleep so sound in bed that night.

>>631973
don't worry you wouldn't see it coming it's not like in your jack bauer fantasies. i will kill you whenever i will get away with it clean. if it's there then it's there if there are witnesses or you are on guard and see me, then later. after all i know where you live where you walk your dog.

just don't shoot my dog it will be better for everyone involved.

>>622588
My brother was bit by a dog when he was about 8-9, he was small enough that it managed to get him on the ground by the neck/shoulder. luckily my Dad manged to wrestle it off him and broke a few of its ribs so it backed off. When the owner came round my borther was still laying on the floor bleeding from the neck and back where it scratched him. The owner's response when they walked up "oh no he's a good dog he'd never bite anyone. You must be mistaken." He's still scared of large dogs off their leash. Dog owners go full retard when it comes to denying that their fuzzy cuddlebuddy can actually be fairly dangerous.

>>631985
that's really stupid tho, if you know anything about dogs you must acknowledge their nature. they can be set of by unexpected things, but an owner that knows his dog will see it coming in time. most dogs don't just walk up to people wagging tails and grinning and then rip their face off. there are signals telegraphed well before. dogs do have personality and tendencies but all dogs can become violent in the right circumstances. of course it's entirely possible your story was just rough play not a real attack.

>>631987
Me my dad and brother were running along the canal in a race to the nearest lock. Rounded a corner and we must have startled it. If you saw the way it went straight for the neck and pushed him over there was no way you could misconstrue that as "rough play"

>>631982
>internet tough guy-ing this hard

Keep your dog on leash in public and you'll never have to worry about someone shooting it because it's attacking them. I know you love your pet, but I love my life and health. Neither you nor your dog will deprive me of either.

If you cried after I shot your dog, I would feel remorse. If you attack me after I shot your dog, I would feel vindicated that I emancipated a shit pet from a shit owner.

>>631993
actually that's not true either. i have had friends who got their dog shot on the leash in the woods by fucktard hunters. dog had high visibility vest and ribbons and was dropped 6 feet from the owner.
>If you attack me after I shot your dog, I would feel vindicated that I emancipated a shit pet from a shit owner.
lol you wouldn't stand a chance you little pussy i tell you. if someone wants to kill you and you have no idea you have no chance in hell to defend yourself nada. especially up close against a knife. especially if you are a sissy little faggot that feels he has to shoot every fucking dog cause they are so scary and dangerous. your little boipussy would be rammed with a knife till you bleed to death while you beg crying for me to stop.

>>632007
Assuming your story is true, did your friends sue the hunters?

>>632009
one friend called the cops other started running in their direction to give them something to think about.
the fuckers got into a jeep or something like that and took off.
hunting company in charge of area said there was no hunt and no hunters they know of in the woods that time so police did nada.

>>631985
>denying that their fuzzy cuddlebuddy can actually be fairly dangerous.
This is how these dogs end up biting people. ANY dog can turn aggressive and you have to address any behavior that can lead to that immediately. Claiming issues, humping little kids, jumping up on you when you get home. These can all turn into aggression issues.

Anticipating what will happen when a kid grab's a dog's tail can only be mediated by grabbing the dog's tail yourself. Etc, etc.

>>632036
there is no 100% guarantees but the incidence rate is way over exaggerated by media. see every time a dog that got his tail pulled and not attacked would make the news there would be nothing else on television and we would never catch up.
my experience with dogs says that anything can happen true but usually nothing happens. and even when shit goes down it's mostly controlled warning bites that barely break skin. i have been bit by a lot of dogs but the only one that really left a mark was my own dog that bit my by mistake i tried to take an other dog out of his mouth and my finger got in the wrong place.
that was when i really lost it and pushed my fingers up in their nose that was the end of that fight.

This is going to get buried in here... but here is some advice on if a dog attacks you.

If you got the distance before the attack... take off a jacket or even your shirt if needed and hold it out away from your body stiffly with both arms.

Position it low enough so that the dumb fuck wants to bite that and not have to jump at it.
Make it easy for them.

Dogs are pretty stupid and in their brain they just want to bite anything that is YOU.

So hopefully they bite down on this shirt or whatever you are holding... soon as they do..
lift up and just start kicking the shit out of the dog with your feet.

Eventually, the dog will realize its mistake and if you did a good enough job kicking it will fuck off away from you.

If its owners are there, you already know they cant control it or else it wouldnt be attacking you

>>623687

some dogs are good though

obviously some people say the dog is good when it isnt, but some dogs are genuinley under control

my uncles dog is a big huge gundog retriever- I wouldnt take it out because it ignores me but when its with him he can keep it at his heel without a leash for hours, make it ignore food even its hungry, it is a good dog

>no-one has ever been attacked by a dog
>therefore this must be bait

btw a similar thing happened to me, if I had a gun I would of shot, even though the 20 year girl who owned the thing was about two feet away trying to soothe it with her voice

Have you only ever seen poodles or something?

SAS operatives spend literally hours and hours training to kill dogs and even then dogs kill them if theyre taken by surprise

this might be the stupidest thing ive ever read

>>623019

why do people think dogs are easy to keep at bay? even a Labrador could literally savage you to death in seconds if it wanted to

My dog is a lab and literally never attacked anything bar this- one time an agressive dog bit its bollock and my dog snapped so quick and just fucking savaged the thing, it was a bloodbath, ive never seen anything like it

dogs are dangerous! you cannot just bat the off like a moth

>>623161

you are wrong he is right

agressive dogs literally kill, they should be put down

>>623193

dog owners arnt always useless, although i`ll give you that that the number of useless ones does seem to be higher recently

>>623250

wow your so tough! I feel a swoon coming on!

>actually youre not youre a bitch faggot

>>623662

If a dog attacks you you can literally be killed

If you really think dogs are so easy to control youve watched to many movies

>>623694

dog are infinitely faster than a human

>>625150

that isnt true

I'm agreeing with the sentiment that people who deny that their dog could ever be aggressive (from a puppy) are more likely to end up with aggressive dogs. People who know this and address it during training are going to have the safest dogs around. Unfortunately we still have ignorant idiots.

I run my dog off leash because she hates the leash. I live in a neighborhood with public streets. I'm far more concerned about someone speeding through certain streets than her attacking someone. When we're running it's like she has blinders on. Squirrels will move not ten yards away and she ignores them. Children that she's played with before (and she LOVES little kids) will be ignored if we're running. She has her own reflective vest and I keep her on a remote controlled electric collar just in case. She ignores other dogs when we're running. I've had to chase off several dogs coming into the road to investigate because she won't do anything about it. This is the level of training I expect from her, so when I say my dog isn't going to bite you without good reason, I mean it. If she's scared of you she'll run away, and she's still hit or miss with people occasionally because she's a teenager in dog years. But she would have to be cornered to act aggressively. She barks to let you know she's scared while she's hiding under the bed.

this is the saddest, most pathetic thing iv ever read

>>632443
any dog can attack people if they think that their owner is being menaced.
we had this happen before the sweetest dog that wouldn't bit you if you kicked her got batshit mad and charged teeth bared when somebody pushed my brother.

>>632447
well for me it's these

So, why are you people afraid of dogs?
99% of dogs are no real threat to a grown man.
Just give it a decent kick and it will probably think better of it.

>>632515
because they are sissy little insecure faggots that's why
seems self evident to me

>>632469
Come back when someone shoots your dog so I can laugh in your face pls.

>>632757
not gonna happen i won't have an other dog ever
i had to put down 3 i had enough

>>622637
This is amazingly awful advice, next are you going to tell me to just go up to a polar bear and pet it when it want's to make a meal out of me?

>>633487
polar bears are total bros if you share your seal with them

>>622532
i don't think leashing the dog would be unrealistic at all.
i would explain to them what the dog did, show them your sleeve, and tell them that you honestly thought the dog was rabid, and that some people in the area carry guns and may try to shoot it (don't let them know you have a gun, though, that may just make things worse)
