Not on private property........ rural area, unimproved roads, trails, rail road tracks. Lots of cattle and healer dogs that keep a watch on cattle for coyotes, etc.
That was my first thought...... However, It would not be quite as alarming to a dog owner if the dog came home smelling like a skunk rather than smelling like pepper...
I tried that....... Some dogs would rather snarl and bark than eat.... A treat Works good with those big Black Labs.... LOL
I'm working that direction... That is one reason I came here with my questions....
Just FYI, railroad tracks and the surrounding easements are private property owned by the railroad. A lot of states have specific language in their criminal trespass laws to specifically include that fact, and allow LE to sign those trespass complaints. Probably nothing you’ll have to deal with (unless you’re doing something really stupid, you’ll likely be allowed to leave after some finger wagging), but better safe than sorry.

It should be fine with a quality kydex holster.I wouldn't suggest carrying a skunk as a deterrent.
Because HE fucking said it --"Conditions now do now warrant shooting the neighbor's dog" --that hard to understand?
. Then I’m going to eliminate that pack.
Seeing as how the S hasn't HTF yet... might I suggest you talk to someone at the county assessors office to see who owns the property in the AO. Maybe do a map recon. "Rural" area, doesn't always mean "public" area. A lot of hunters, and off roaders get themselves in hot water when they get caught on land they find out belongs to someone doesn't like surprises.
Sorry, shouldn't have come off as a dick. These urban commando threads get old though.I’m not slow to understand there, bud.
My point was that he was probably wrong. How does he know they’re pets, tags? If he’s out on public land and there are alarm dogs, aggressive dogs, heelers, labs, and “all of the above”. Doesn’t sound to me like a neighbor’s dog. Sounds like a “released into the country” pack, or a negligent owners pack. Either way those aren’t just destructive nuisances, they’re dangerous.
If you’re in the middle of the country and you’re being harassed by a full pack of dogs that would rather snarl at you than eat milkbones, then these aren’t your neighbors’ dogs. If that’s me, I’m going to think what if some kids come out here with their families, go off exploring on their own, and run into this pack
I am assuming you are near your home, which is pretty suburban as far as Montana goes. And somebody would have to be an idiot to use a heeler to guard livestock, unless they wanted their cows to be running back and forth all night. Every rancher I know out here uses Pyrenees, or a derivative, to keep predators at bay. Heelers will bark and screech like hell, though. That's for sure. But they don't run around in wild dog packs like around the rez.
It isn't. Where I live it sure as hell isn't. Where he lives is the closest to a leafy suburb we have.
Where did you live out here? He is in a town that gets written up in the Washington Post as the next great place to move.

Yeah, okay, so I'm not getting the feeling here he's dealing with packs of roaming dogs and he obviously hasn't felt the need to elaborate.
Same in NE. The worst part was the "last meal" --when the packs got too big and too unruly we'd have to put 'em down. They'd get whatever we had for dinner, then a .22 in the back of the head when finished. I fucking hated that shit. Rather feed that last meal to the fuckers that dropped 'em off to be honest.
And that is a topic I hope to discuss........... I have had Black Labs in my past as hunting dogs. I don't have a dog at this time.. With the rapid changes in my environment and my adapting I can see a need for a dog in the future.
