A friend of my lives in a rural part of Colorado way east of Denver. He's raced Leadville 100 several times. About 10 years ago he's taking a run from home on the many dirt roads in his area. A nasty dog runs out from one the neighboring properties and attacks him. He kicks the dog until the owner comes out grabs his dog. No apology. Nothing. My friend warns the dog owner if it happens again he's going to shoot the Effing dog. The dog owner didn't like that and started arguing with my friend. My friend leaves and finishes his run, but he's pissed. He doesn't like being attacked. So on the next run he brings a small .38 cal. revolver inside a fanny pack. Sure enough, same property, same dog, different result. When the attacking dog got real close my friend shot it until it quit moving. Of course the owner was really mad. Called the cops etc. The cops came and cited the dog owner. My friend? The cops told him to try have a nice day.
He killed a dog who was only being a dog and chasing and attacking an intruder? Kept shooting till ir was dead? Sick. Bring bear spray on your run. Will disable any dog and not cause permanent harm. And the dog won't do it again
