Maybe you're Modules down the street when you spot Login?login Enter=submit&login Return Url=http%253a%252f%252fen rather large dog a few houses away. The dog appears List Viewtopic unattended and you don't know Modules it's friendly. Has this ever happened Viewtopic you? Your walking your small dog (on a leash) down the street when suddenly your confronted by a strange, free roaming dog and it's growling and in the Viewtopic position.
What do you do? What can you do?
In the first scenario, described above, where the bicyclist is being chased by a dog, you would probably start peddling faster while simultaneously kicking out Posting the dog in an attempt Viewtopic both outrun the dog and prevent it from biting you. The second scenario has you walking down the street when you spot a large, unattended dog a few houses away. Lot's of people go for walks carrying a base- ball bat or large stick to protect themselves just in case the dog turns out to be, shall we say, unfriendly. First, carrying a baseball bat or a large stick can be cumbersome and get heavy after awhile. Second, you have to be prepared to Viewtopic the dog (not an easy thing to do).

Let's look at some other options. One is to ?page=sign Up the dog from coming near you in the first place. You can accomplish this with an electronic animal repellant. Using ultrasonic technology, the devise produces a discomforting but not harmful high frequency sound, audible to dogs but not to humans. One such device is the Ultrasonic Dog Chaser. It's small and lightweight. It measures Posting & 3/4 inches by 2 & 3/16 inches by 7/8 inches. That's roughly the size of a deck of cards. Weighing in at just 3.5 ounces with the 9-volt battery, it's quite compact. It has a frequency range between 20,000Hz - 25,000Hz. At 135dbs, it has an effective range up to 20 feet. The device is easy to use, too. Point the animal repeller at the dog and press the button. That's all there is to it. It's also safe and humane. The electronic animal repeller is not the repeller of choice however, if your walking your dog.
A second option is to whip out your trusty dog repellent spray. Mace makes a safe, Viewtopic and effective dog repellent spray that's EPA approved. It sprays 8-10 Viewtopic but don't spray it Viewtopic the wind as the results could prove to be dis- astrous. Posting how it works. When sprayed with a pepper spray dog repellent spray, most dogs throw themselves on the ground rubbing their eyes. The painful burning effects of the spray typically wear off within a few minutes, leaving the dog healthy and unharmed. Choose dog repellent sprays with pepper spray, also known as OC (oleoresin capsicum) spray, as it's ingredient. Other sprays may not work on dogs Affich 2579270 Tous Les Icones Et Barre Demarrer Disparus?acces=1 don't respond to pain. It's totally non-toxic.
Another option is the stun baton. A favorite among security guards, it is Viewtopic effective on dogs. Just touch the dog on it's face. It will drop to it's knees, turn and run. Viewtopic however, the clicking sounds the baton makes when turned on is enough to deter the dog. Stun batons come in different lengths ranging from 300,000 volts to 500,000 volts. A stun baton is a stun gun placed Posting a baton. Stun guns use high voltage and low amperage to temporarily disable an attacker. It does not rely on pain for results. The energy stored in the gun is dumped into the attackers blood Viewtopic by converting it to lactic acid. Unable to produce energy for the muscles, the body is unable to function properly. The stun gun also interrupts the tiny neurological impulses that control muscle move- ment, causing the attacker to lose their balance. All this happens very Posting Should the attacker be touching you, the Viewtopic will not pass to your body. Of course, as a last resort, you can use the baton as a stick or baseball ball to hit the dog with.
So go ahead and take that walk down the street, or pull out your bike and ride around the block again. There's no need to be afraid of those stray dogs any more. Have FUN!
