Dogs are guards.
They either guard a teritory or a man, or even sheep and so on.
They are really bad suckers when you invade their turf, and they try to
keep you aout of it by intimidation.
But a dog on a road usually doesn't have anything to guard, and they
just bark to intimidate you, but they don't have any wish to fight a big
(or a small) man. They know that most of the time the odds are against
them.
So ignore them!
They are not so brave, but sometimes if they think they can get away
with it they will try to take a bite of your leg, so don't run.
Stop and you'll see them stopping too. Go theire way and they'll just go
away, and if you grab a stone they'll leave a trail of dust behind them!
Experience talks, I had severall encounters with those little (and big)
devils, and also had a dog of my own since I was 7 years old.
Once I was alone in a dirt road, 1700m alt with my bike and 3 cow
guarding BIG dogs. All the above worked just fine.
Only problem I had (no experience there...) is how the hell do you get a
big dumb lazy cow to get off the fu__ing road???!!???!!???
Ps1 Going after a big dog with a huge motorcycle SOUNDS like a good
idea, but it really isn't. It is ok with small (or even big) city dogs,
but it will only piss off seriously dangerous once, as I also found out
on a mountain once. Just stop the motorcycle, keep cool and reach for a
stone. That will do the trick
Ps2 take a look at that guys:
