[Closed] Aggressive trail dogs

[#6980365]

Yesterday I was out at Cannock enjoying my easter Sunday with some race pace intervals, coming up that long draggy fire road climb on the monkey.
There were two people riding up ahead with a dog, so I slowed right down as I passed, said hello, then accelerated off again.
I heard some shouting behind, and then noticed this dog running next to me, right before it nipped my leg, grabbing hold of my leg warmer (good job I was wearing them) and staying clamped on for a few seconds.
I didn't stop, because I was in the middle of a good effort, and I didn't want this dog to have a second go.

Why the f*ck, would anyone bring a dog that shows any kind of aggressive behavior, to ride with them at a busy trail centre on a Sunday?

I went past an aggressive old dog on my ride today, although in this case it was the husband who was on the leash.

Do you only permit certain responses to your threads?

It was a grammar dog & it knew you wouldn't capitalise Easter. Retaliation in first...

Report to police on 101 just to get a record going or confirm an ongoing problem.

I just think that saying 'thread closed', in bold, is a little over the top.

The attack dogs are circling the poor bugger already.

At least the owners couldn't trot out the 'he doesn't like cyclists' line.

Perhaps he smelled faintly of Pedigree Chum?

Maybe I do, what's it to you? What I do in my leisure time is none of your busines. ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Now, you see, I'm starting to side with the dog here. Chum is cheaper than chamois cream, I'll give you that though.
