Tips On How To Continue To Be Protected From Canines When Walking

By Tammy Wilson


My medical doctors have always encouraged me to exercise on a regular basis however what finally forced me into it was when I had a mild stroke around six months ago. I slowly started walking in my driveway and right after about 30 days I was walking around our block.

What I observed during those walks was that nearly all of my neighbors only came home at night and left their own pet dogs at home during the day. What happens if one of those pet dogs escaped? I then recalled one of my friends that utilized pepper spray on dogs and decided that I ought to bring one myself.

Dog pepper spray is different from the one for people. It's also non-lethal but the dog repellent only carries about fifty percent of the active component within pepper sprays for human beings.

Canines possess an extremely sensitive sense of smell so it wouldn't normally take a lot in order to stop their own attack. So, dog spray should not be utilized on people, and vice versa.

I was walking along 5th street one day and I noticed that a gate was ajar. Inside was a German shepherd and that he was barking on me. I got my very own self-defense spray just as the beast was about to charge.

The label on my own dog repellent said that it was helpful up to ten feet thus I sprayed him as soon as he was around 6 feet away and barking furiously. I was definitely afraid. The spray made the pet dog stop and also turn around, snorting and crying.

The owner went out and apologized. She revealed that her doggy seemed to be in pain all morning and was about to take him to the veterinarian. At the gate, she remembered her phone and went inside the house to obtain it. She didn't wish to move the dog but she forgot to close the gate.

Later, I called and found out that her dog had recovered from the defense spray in less than 1 hour. I am just glad that I obtained a canine repellent. Making use of pepper spray on dogs reduces the likelihood of injury for both canines and human beings.
