Subject: RE: Dog protection while running I usually carry a thing of mace I got at Target, esp if i'm going on a certain trail- there aren't very many people on it but it seems popular with people who walk big dogs without leashes. I'm kind of nervous around dogs and it makes me feel better.
I often take out the mace if I see a dog that makes me nervous. The owners are always like "He won't hurt you" but it encourages them to keep the dog close.
It is a pain, though, with most running shorts. |
