They were running so fast they couldn’t stop but made a wide turn away from me. It happened so fast I don’t think making a spray available would have worked. Now I am never without a handgun outside, especially on a walk or yard work.
I do keep a can of wasp spray handy (it sprays a stream about
20’)
Semper paratus
Does anyone have any info on how wasp spray worked on a large dog?

I know it works on wasps, as I've used it many times and never been stung.

But does it work quickly on a dog?

And does it poison the dog so it ends up dying later?

It is poison, after all.

Somehow I have a hard time thinking of poison as a self defense weapon.
