Also, a gun is easier to maintain than a dog. Even if she is an animal lover and maintaining a dog isn't a big deal, you also don't have to train the gun or constantly worry about it attacking innocent people or house guests.
Finally, you can actually take a gun out of the house, leave it at home when you're away, get rid of it easily if you don't feel like you want it anymore, etc. Buying a dog that's trained to maim attackers requires far, far greater commitment than getting a gun. I don't see how anyone could even seriously suggest it for home defense to be honest, unless you have people dedicated to the dog's care or you're an insane militant moutaineer who thinks the government is constantly out to get you.
