Shooting is not necessary.
On two occasions pitbull type dogs have attacked my dog and my dogs walking buddy of the same breed. I got in and hoisted the pitbull off the ground by the collar. They both went limp after about 10 or 15 seconds while I let the pack of border terriers tear strips off it. The little guy, Buzby wisely went for the pitbull's groin. On both occasions the owner started screaming that I had killed their dog so I dropped them and they came around pretty quickly and took off.
I'm a great believer in self defense and if the attacker loses the fight they deserve to get whatever is dealt out to them. But no guns. That brings the situation into a whole new legal situation.
