I'm sorry but that won't work for truly aggressive dogs. They will just charge and blast right through that "barrier" but I guess it's useful for a standoff...
@mjfromga89 Your so right... Its just an option. You can also use it as a justification to strike or pepper spray the dog. "The dog was committed to attack, I had to strike the dog"
@k9bullet11 A dog attacked my dog, I had to strike my dog to break up the fight. I know there would not have been ANYTHING I could have done to prevent the fight. Two big alpha male dogs and tons of fury and he charged us. But your suggestion might be able to prevent a Chihuahua from going through with an attack that he is thinking about on your big dog or something. Overall, it WILL help people, it is just not useful for all situations. Thanks for replying :) I'll thumb this up!
@Ka80SS So you use the dog as a nail. I am sure you have a right to defend your dog (property) just be careful for unresponsible dog owners who may think you are using excessive force. People are unpredictable.
@Ka80SS Wise option. Two things to be concerned about. 1. Wind direction and if the dog really wants to bite your dog your going to make it more aggressive. I have learned the pepper spray works on dogs who are undecided. For the wind direction, if your going to spray use your weak hand to spray and block the wind with your other hand to your face. Also, your dog may get some mist. Stay safe
I have used the hammer so many times, peeople see me coming down the street and they call their dogs inside until I am out of sight. I live in a redneck Pit Bull area. I lost 4 dogs to Pit Bull attacks. Of course these losers always have more than one guttermutt. I sued one of them and won but its not about the money. My right hand was crushed and never did heal right. I am tired of playing games. One smash is all it takes with the hammer. Who cares about the wind.
@Ka80SS You would surley have my respect. And I understand your reason for going to such measures. To bad the people cant be held more accountable for their dogs. The dogs have to suffer for their owners. I have a video of police officers shooting a dog and it refused to die, a person comes with a hammer and finishes the dog. Your point is well taken. Stay safe.
@RiceKiller191 Well, I would suggest other means before exercising strikes. You dont want to esculate something that may not happen. Stay safe my friend.
@RiceKiller191 not really, sometimes they come running full force at you and leap for your face. You'd have to be Chuck Norris ready with a round house kick to survive that.
@drumcafe8 No not during a fight. To prevent it from occuring. If the dog is intended to fight then i would stop the windmill and do other things. You can see those other things on the other comments.
@k9bullet11 I wrote flight, sorry, not fight. What I meant was one dog charging another with purpose or 'intent'.. I would be making myself a holy f(*%g terror to the oncoming dog with my dog directly behind me. No? Even if my dog likes to fight, and very few actually do, then I STILL don't want him fighting. If he doesn't want to fight then I don't want him being attacked. I might still use that leash to wallop the oncoming dog in the face... if I really have to.
@drumcafe8 I agree absolutely that it is "just a further way to keep stray dogs away" as you said at the end of your video. It will not likely stop an attack though.
@catnap24 You could or your could use other options before you join in. Options: Walk with a walking stick, Know where to strike a dog for max results, Pepper spray but becareful you dont spray your dog or yourself and if you have to, grasp the other dog by its hind legs and pull and if you have to lift and slam dog on a hard surface. As a last resort exercise lethal force.
Carrying a pop-up umbrella also works. Pop the umbrella and use it as a shield to keep the strange dog from coming up to your dog. Breaks their angry eye contact too and diffuses the situation.
@pinoybalot5 While that may work with small dogs. Larger dogs may decide to take your foot with them. Try using an impact weapon, walking stick or flash light. However, know your state laws on animal cruelty and self defense before deciding to strike a dog. Most states only allow you to strike a dog in a face of a threat once the threat is gone, if you do contunie to strike the dog it may be considered animal cruelty. Stay safe and alert.
Thanks I've been searching for ways to try and stop stray dogs from going after my german shepard and vice versa. I don't know where they come from but I've had Routties, Boxers and even the occational Chihuahua around my house.
@Lidia101 Build more confidence in your Shepherd for starters and it will happen less and less as fewer dogs make the choice to visit. Your dog will be less upset by the occasional visits the more confident he is, too. Use your best, angriest outdoor voice and carry a really good water gun to fire at them if they DO decide to mess with you. If we're talking actual fights that's a different story.
