I think if I was anticipating so many attacks on my safety from dogs, I would have a plan to use before shooting. Maybe carry some treats.
Shooting peoples' dogs, justified or not, is a great way to spread hate and discontent. For some unknown reason people seem to consider pets as part of their family and form strong bonds with them.
If I found out the man who shot my dog had been pointing his gun or shooting dogs around town every 6 months, I can't imagine it would make the situation better.
