If you're riding, running or walking, and a dog chases you, stop, turn to face the charging beast and say in a loud, authoritative voice: "Stop!" or "Stay!" Usually the dog will hesitate long enough for you to beat a calm and dignified retreat. If you're continually harassed by the same dog, politely contact the owner and the local authorities. You might want to pack along a canister of pepper spray to teach the dog that chasing you isn't a smart idea.
