You can expunge a misdemeanor and some felony charges. When you are convicted, stay out of trouble for a couple years. After some time has passed, go to the Superior Court of the county where you were convicted. Ask them for expungement forms. You can take these home and fill them out.

When you turn in the forms it is a good idea to have:

If you are out of town, you can contact the courthouse, located in the county of your conviction, and ask them to mail the forms to you.

Do stun guns work on dogs?

I have sold many stun guns for defense against dogs. They actually work in two ways in regards to dogs. The sound that the stun gun makes when triggered in the air is very effective. Dogs hate the sound. It really scares them. This almost always works but if you do need to stun the dog, the stun gun will not kill them or damage them though it may leave a couple burn marks where it made contact. The stun gun needs to be a minimum of 500,000 volts.

It is recommended to use more humane items, such as Mace Muzzle pepper spray. Muzzle is specifically made for canines. Or use a high frequency alarm such as the Ultrasonic Dog Chaser / Repeller. Dogs shy away from the sound, even though YOU don't hear it.
