(2) the desirability and urgency of avoiding the harm clearly outweigh, according to ordinary standards of reasonableness, the harm sought to be prevented by the law proscribing the conduct; and
(3) a legislative purpose to exclude the justification claimed for the conduct does not otherwise plainly appear.

Re: One more time (defense against animals)
There was once a specific law for dog attacks. Now "necessity" is your primary recourse.
I recommend Pepper Spray for most of those situations, but defending against large attacked trained dogs would be a deadly force situation.
