Shinto Buddhism and Native Beliefs, yes.
Behind a fence or not, a growling dog may be acting in defense. A human waving a gun around usually, isn't.
Your points are true. Add to that the strength of them in a pack, and it's scary. Down here in the desert we have packs of them, they have indeed killed kids and I believe a couple adults. I used to work out there, we heard them every day. The Mexican workers would befriend them, and the dogs would pay little mind.
I find that with the attacks I've dealt with, had I shot the animal before it got to me, I never would have known that it could have been easily scared off. Forgive me for feeling that one should take no life without reasonable cause, human or animal. It's not religious, it's not political. It is as what we all wish to defend, life.
