Had a few dogs come after me. The difficult part is I would rather not hurt a dog, it is the owner who deserves a punch in the face.
Usually happens when I am on a bike which is a bit of an awkward position to respond to an ankle biter. I don’t want to run it over but I also don’t want to stop moving away. Of course if I had to I could flatten it with my bike.
Exactly! There’s also the significant point that you could get bit in the process of kicking away said dog, and the bite could give you an infection, which all comes back to why we (like most animals) will go very far to avoid a physical altercation.
Basically, fighting shit can be dangerous, even in situations where you easily come out on top 10/10 times. That doesn’t mean the fucking chihuahua has a chance.
I’ve never hesitated to kick at a dog chasing me on my bike. I love dogs, but if a dumbfuck owner lets it loose on the street, I will defend myself with all necessary force.

i just stop or slow down, and the dogs usually retreat
