I typically wear steel toed shoes, so I would have booted that bastard square if the face. Hopefully I'd break a few teeth and or bones, but dogs are pretty damn tough. However the force of a steel plate smashing their face with the force of a soccer kick will probably make the dog rethink it's actions.

I don't think I'd resort to pulling out a knife or anything unless the thing is going crazy and starts pentrating skin b/c things can get really tricky (with the law and stuff )when a weapon is involved. With steel boots though, nobody knows the difference b/c they look like business shoes.

I'd probably call Animal Control as well b/c I have small kids around. I'd want it documented that the dog attacked me viciously.
You gonna get time to wind up for a soccer kick with a dog attacking you for real? You won't always have that luxury, bro.

kicking with your toes, steel covered or otherwise is going to set you up for some broken bones.

I don't know man. It's not like my toes are gonna smash into the front of the steel super hard. I can probably kick a hole through a wall and not hurt my foot with these things.

How long do you think it takes to me "wind up" for a kick? I can probably front snap kick in a fraction of a second.
