People in Thailand (perhaps other places, as well) do that so as to alert people that their dogs are not strays to be scooped up and used as meat.

I bought a wee personal alarm with a very loud voice, also a wee can of colourant spray......bright red. Takes about a weeks scrubbing before it comes off, it's to let the police know who's the guilty party, I would have no worries giving someone a face full if they tried to get Dageus. Nothing at all harmful in it.
Am I taking all this too much to heart and going way OTT?
You do whatever you need to do to feel safe and to make Daegus safe, just remember that if you spray the wrong person, you could be the one charged. I would check with your local police authorities on the legalities of the face spray, Roxy.
Something to consider might be a personally mounted camera and harness. My BIL has one that he uses for mountain climbing. There are many available, but here is one:
