I have a few questions because this is a subject I know nothing about. My niece is 13 years old and responsible, but as she gets older she is out of the house more often at her friends. We live in a development called Dove Mountain in Marana.
Recently, someone on one of the trails around here was attacked by a rabid Javelina. I know she walks those trails with her friends sometimes.
Also, she sometimes comes home after the sun has set.
So I was considering getting her some kind of spray. My questions are as follows:
Thanks.

So I was considering getting her some kind of spray. My questions are as follows:
- Does it makes sense to give a 13 year old pepper spray? I think she'd be fine with it, but I was just curious if anyone else has kids about that age that have it.
- Are there any laws about minors having it in the State of Arizona?
- I would like to get something relatively compact, so that she takes it everywhere (except school, obviously). I am not familiar with formulations. Can anyone make specific recommendations? Ideally the spray should be efficacious against humans and filthy beasts as well.
Thanks.
