    For real though OP- get an air horn. The cheap aerosol kind. The next time the dog rushes you, blast them with the air horn. It'll turn em around or at least stop em dead AND get their owner's attention in a hurry!


    And you don't have to get bear spray in your eyes either which is always nice.

    Wrong, big stick. I've seen plenty of dogs ignore airhorns and other loud, shrill noises when their hackles are up. Very few ignore getting thumped on the head and back a few times with a 5 foot length of 2x4. Like everyone else has said, you don't want to kill the thing...yet, but you do want to make it fear you and show it that you are not to be fucked with. Beatings do just that.

    Sometimes you need to think like a dog. Show that dog who's dominant by humping it. Problem solved.

    Never actually tried it yet (see the disclaimer below), though the lab down the street would be a candidate. I've been watching a lot of Caesar Milan lately and you need to think like a dog.

    It's like TGR in a way, someone would post something and then someone like Rog would come in and hump the post a bit.

    Bear spray is messy. Squirtgun filled with ammonia works too, and won't go where you don't want it to go.

    Buy two cans of bear spray. Go out somewhere and practice with one, so you know how it sprays, distance, spread pattern etc. They are more of a heavy stream than a mist like spray paint. Once you use a can, consider it junk and get another one.

    Jesus, people, the OP asked WWTPRD, and there is only one answer to that question: nuke it from orbit, behead the remains.

    Taking out your frustrations on the dog is choosing the wrong target. Get a pet porcupine adn walk that. Then the owner gets to spend his evenings pulling quills, the dog gets a taste of pain, and you and your dog get to laugh.

    Been there done that. Part of our bear safety training when I worked up north.
