Next time I see your dog running freely, whether it jumps on me or not, I'm going to pepper spray it.

No, that is illegal. And cruel since it's not the dog's fault that its owner is an ass. [/quote]

If it's in an area where dogs are required to leash their dogs, no it is not illegal. The dog could be wild for all I know, and I'm not going to wait or hesitate until it does something to a person. You're right it's not the dog's fault, but I can't exactly communicate with the dog or pepper spray the owner.  Absolutely fed up with irresponsible dog owners blaming others. [/quote]

If the dog is off-leash and not interested in what you are doing, why would you need to do anything?[b] It's pretty obvious when a dog is going to attack[/b]. [/quote]

It is absolutely NOT obvious when a dog is going to attack, as they usually do so very rapidly and quickly, often snapping in an instant. In most places, it is illegal for you dog to be off leash, except in a private area, or a specifically sanctioned area like a dog park. Everybody else does not know your dog. Everybody else does not know what your dog is capable of, or has a history of, or how to predict the temperament of your specific dog. An owner or caretaker is solely responsible for the animal when you take it out in public, and they should always be kept on a short leash when there are other people around.[/quote]

Look. I have a dog and she is never off leash. But there are plenty of signs that a dog is going to attack. Stiff ears, tail position, etc. Get a grip.  [/quote]
