Dogs and stupid pre-teens in groups are the reason I carry pepper spray. I really don't want to have to shoot a dog. I love dogs and if I can get away from one by showering it's nose/eyes in pepper spray and not have to shoot it all the better for me and it. I actually had a code orange once when we were in the park that had me unlock the top of my pepper spray and have it ready if needed. A large mixed breed dog came running fast at my kids and me in a silent manner I grabbed the can in the stroller pouch I keep it in and unlocked the top just in time to see an unhappy owner running after his errant dog. All was well and no one got hurt and the pepper spray was never in sight. The dog was actually very friendly once it was on leash.
