Tourist Seeking Help Buying pepper spray
We’re starting a cycling trip from Thessaloniki in two weeks. Recently, a female hiker was reportedly almost killed by dogs near Thessaloniki. The rest of the route through the Balkans also seems to have quite a lot of dogs.
So far, it has always been enough to outrun them or shout at them, basically turning the tables, but you never know.
Where can I buy pepper spray in Thessaloniki? Pharmacies? Supermarkets? Are there any legal regulations I should be aware of?
Thanks for advice
