OP---If you are telling the truth and this really happened--then you just killed a loved pet.....loved as much as you love your Lab....
How would you feel if a neighbor shot and killed your Lab under the same circumstances.....
Think about it, will ya.
The wife carries her Taurus Model 85 with confidence.
Although often I carry a Sig P6, somethimes like just 5 min. ago, while walking the dog in the dark, I carry a Rossi 677 357 Snubbie.
Two great guns. Can't go wrong with either.
Both are very accurate. Both are reliable.
The CZ is all steel. The Sig is Alum alloy frame--gotta keep the frame rails greased.
See which fits your hands better.
