I'm sorry, but I don't believe killing the dogs is the only solution, nor do I think it's worth the risk.
You can tell me how great a shot you are, but I have a .40 as well, and I don't think for a minute that you can hit a moving target with a .40 from a bicycle.

I've watched (and love) Top Shot. I saw pro marksmen miss dog-sized targets moving at constant speed across their field of fire while they stood stationary. I saw the same pro marksmen miss dog-sized targets that were stationary while they moved in various ways. In all cases, they had both hands on their weapon and were braced for follow-ups. When in a moving truck (closest example I can think of to what you propose), the hit rate was well below 50% WITH A RIFLE. And in no case that I recall were the shooters moving while the targets also moved randomly and reacted to the noise of gunshots.
Whether you plan to shoot one-handed while steering, or two handed without holding the bike for balance, I have trouble believing you'll succeed. Now I'll grant you that the dogs will be much closer than the above examples. And you always have the option to stop, put a food down, and properly aim, assuming the first shot startles them enough to stop chasing you. But I think you're asking a lot of your skills, however good they might be. Please don't take this as a slight of your shooting. It would be a very difficult task for anyone. It was smart to discuss this with the police beforehand, so you know they won't take your gun. But I'd still buy or borrow something with less recoil to make the task easier.
I will say, without any sarcasm, good luck to you. I really mean that. If you shoot the dogs, please have someone video tape your marksmanship. If you can do what you claim, I bet you'll make the cut of Top Shot next season (if there is a next season).

Take a video of the dogs coming out of the house. If the dogs come out of a house they must live there. The dogs having collars will confirm that they were not just in the house as strays, but actually belong there.

Let me explain something to y'all. Those guys on top shot aren't that great and master trained. Have you seriously watched that? There is people who have owned food stores and have normal jobs that are on there. And yes some military personnel. There not pros that shoot everyday.

And for those with a .40 caliber pistol who can't shoot with one hand, get some time with it. If you need it for protection one day your gonna be up s*** creek. Whether its a dog are a human breaking in your house you better know how to handle that weapon. I'm surprised that some of you couldn't hit a medium sized dog two foot away from your leg while riding a bike. Id feel embarrassed to admit that.

I'm not trying to pick on you. You're clearly a better shooter than I'll ever be. But as I said, I don't think it's just a matter of shooting skill. I can't stop thinking about what the likely outcome would be, given the unpredictable nature of a number of dogs running around in close range to you on a moving bicycle, while you shoot at them with a "snappy" DAO pistol. Every scenario I mentally run through ends up with you on the ground, likely with a gunshot wound in your leg.
I sincerely hope it works out for you. I'm hoping you pull it off unscathed. Please report back.

FACT: the dogs are loose.
FACT: the dogs are owned by the guy, and he pretty much admitted to such when he supplied you with the pepper spray
FACT: the law says that the dogs must be leashed or behind a fence.
The police need to come in and take away the dogs, fine the owner, and get things safe for people passing by. If the local police are refusing to do anything, then you need to talk to someone higher up. He's breaking the law and the police don't want to enforce it.
Shooting the dogs is not a solution and will only cause more trouble for you.

Moving target vs moving target is a horrible idea, let's not even get into revenge/shooting some poor dogs........imagine having to reload?
Have you tried the bear spray yet?? At least give um that before you smoke um

Ill definitely report back the out come. Tomorrow morning will see what happens. Like I said, ill use his spray that he bought.
I also thought about calling the sheriffs office to meet me on the road before the guys house and have the deputy follow me and witness what's happening. And take it from there. Then the deputy can report back to my buddy (the road captain) at the sheriffs office and see what he advises me to do.

I'm not trying to claim myself as a perfect marksman but shooting a pistol on a bike is not that hard of a task for me.
Guys I'm not trying to get ugly are be a d*** but im just frustrated with this and tired of it. Y'all have no idea how aggravating it is to keep fighting with these dogs.

I think we're all waiting with bated breath on the outcome. I hope it turns out for the better.
So long as you know and can accept the consequences, you have to do what you have to do. I'm the last person to support deadly force and am an animal supporter, but it seems to me that:
1) you have a dangerous situation (out of control dogs forcing you to make riding choices suddenly (e.g., into oncoming traffic, knocking you off your bike)).
2) the situation can escalate extremely quickly into a far more dangerous situation (e.g., mauling, grievous injury to limbs, infection (rabies), even death in severe cases).
3) the situation is even more dangerous than (2) because you have a pack - SEVEN dogs! - this is not an easily controlled situation.
4) the authorities are reluctant or unable to do anything proactive (until the first - and perhaps very deadly - bite happens).
5) you have tried to handle this from multiple perspectives, all to no avail.
What confounds me is the owner of the dogs: he seems reluctant, unable, or just too incompetent to do anything (seriously? build a better fence, gate, etc.). The solutions are not rocket science.
While I don't like the idea of deadly force, if you have no choice, you have no choice. Sprays, etc. are probably effective, but only if you have the circumstances to apply them effectively. This whole analogy reminds me of incidents in which police officers shoot (and sometimes kill) an aggressor, and then afterwards, you hear complaints such as, "Oh, couldn't they have shot the (assailant) in the leg or something?"
In violent, aggressive situations, you are unlikely to have to luxury to use more passive measures. A close friend of mine is an active police officer; you do not have the time or grace of space to be so discerning. My father was a nurse in a mental institution. A mental patient went berserk one day, and it took FOUR trained male nurses, including my father, to restrain and subdue the patient. Even with four people, my father still received a significant facial injury requiring plastic surgery. And I train and teach martial arts: the slow build up and the luxury of time and thought afforded to the "action" we seemed conditioned to from movies and TV are myths. If you have no choice, you act - and if you are in a dangerous situation, you put down your opponent - hard.
There are SEVEN, dare I say, "rabid" dogs. There will be no second chance if you are brought down.
Good luck. Hopefully it will not come down to the solution of last resort.

Thanks. I to, am against shooting them. I like dogs. I've had some in the past and they were good dogs. I also had them contained like I was suppose to also though. I don't know, I'm just gonna take it one day at a time. I have a feeling that I'm gonna give the guy a call soon and tell him that I've had enough though. But I still need to try the spray he bought before a weapon is brought into the situation.
According to various sources on the internet, a dog bite seems to range to several hundred pounds of pressure. But it's not just crushing damage - there will torn skin, ligaments, muscles, blood vessels and nerves - as well as the risk of infection. And we are not talking about a single bite, but potentially many multiple bites. We have seen the damage done by unrestrained dogs on people; I would not want to think what would happen with seven dogs.
I don't want to be a fear monger here, but I think the potential risk to life and limb is underestimated or underplayed.
... seven dogs? Egad.

Based on what you've described, the issue is with the owner. Sadly, I suspect that this owner will not realize just how serious the situation is until something serious happens to one or more of the dogs.

Your rite about infection and such. These dogs probably never had shots, who's to say there not carrying something. One of them really looks rough. One of his eyes is really messed up and he doesn't look really healthy. He's one of the three that's real aggressive. I try to watch for him the most when there at my ankles.

I would save the shooting until absolutely necessary, (you were bitten)... 1 Meatball with some "vitamin tabs" stuffed inside once a week, it would be a much more sensible/safer, from repercussions of the nutball owners, who I suspect would all of a sudden "start to care" about their dogs, if you started to shoot their dogs without at first getting bitten. JMO And yes, I do like dogs, but you have to draw a line somewhere...

I really don't need to...the whole idea is INSANE.its totally avoidable .there must be at least ten things you could try before shooting a dog that's just doing what it believes to be right.
I'm sorry for the name calling I did.that wasnt right at all.I'm an animal lover and perhaps i got a little emotional, and while i wouldnt consider myself a pacifist,I don't believe in violence as a means of dispute resolution.and I'm out with that.

Sorry, but that kind of attitude is ignorant.
You need to read the whole thread, and after that, argue much, much more convincingly how unrestrained dogs charging you in a pack of seven in a public place with an irresponsible/unresponsive owner is "right".
