If you have a concealed weapons permit, more power to you. I could not hit a coyote with a pistol and doubt if my 22 hollow point rifle rounds would take one down. And walking with a Winchester type rifle with my pooch is probably not a good idea. And it takes two hands for a slingshot.
Aren't there bear alarms or some such that scare animals away? Of course, that would also terrify the dog you are walking.
I found this article.
