Re: defending your dog

Yep.. In Texas animals are considered property, so legally you cannot justify using force (IANAL), especially deadly force against another person for that or another dog. Now if the dog is coming towards your dog and YOU, then you might be in fear for you life. And if the rocks are flying in your direction and hitting close then you might be in danger. And if you were in danger you could defend yourself as both a rock and a decent size dog can seriously injure or kill you. But as usual, avoidance is best and if you have other force options such as pepper spray/OP, then those could be used.
