Yes, but pepper spray doesnt work on dogs....and its effect on people is overrated. Most cops dont trust pepper spray, they have learned the hard way that it is often ineffective.Are UPS drivers allowed to carry pepper spray? I know my mailman does just in case he is attacked by a dog or any other situations which he may need it.
Sorry to debunk that myth, it does work. I do not trust pepper spray, but it has given me a 15 second delay to get to my car more than once.Yes, but pepper spray doesnt work on dogs....and its effect on people is overrated.

The exact reason I do not carry it. Ill take my chances rather than get it in my eyes and be laying on the ground to be used as a chew toy. Kinda like p***ing in the wind.When I was a teenager (when dinosaurs roamed) a girlfriend & I got some keyring-sized pepper spray for our personal protection. We were pulled into a market parking lot and got the scathingly brilliant idea to make sure that the darn things really sprayed.
We rolled down the car windows and pointed towards the outside when the wind shifted and we got spray right back at us. OMG !! That stuff was wicked!!
I still have some pepper spray today, and I am fully confident that it will spray if & when I need it.
You live & learn!
