This day I felt so terrified. I went to the seashore to jog but one dog chased me with teet ready to attack. I stopped and suddenly sat on sand and pick a handful of sand and peebles. The stupid dog understood and left. People here aren't animal friendly so doggies aren't also human friendly. I can't forget this day. Do you have the same occurrence as mine a dog chased you? I'm also afraid of snakes and rats. What about you? Image credit to Facebook gif

@florelway that also happens in the town where my sister lives in Opol. There are numerous stray dogs and when Mayor Seno was the mayor he ordered to impound all the dogs but no-one knows where they're impounded

@cacay1 We have laws as to astray dogs but we cannot implement because we have no impounding area. If ever we put an impounding area we need to maintain, who will feed the dogs, and what if no one claims the dog? Shall we keep the dog forever?

@allknowing, almost all of us are afraid of dogs. They can't be trusted. But there are also few dogs friendly to humans. We'll know it once they wag their tails.

@allknowing indeed wagging would also mean to attack once they sense a false move from us. They're also keen observer.

We do not have stray dogs here, dogs are closed in their gardens. Most of them bark when you walk in front of their gardens, I do not trust dogs.

@cacay1 While cats do not attack people if you let them alone, dogs may attack you for no reason.

@LadyDuck, that's safer to think, but here there are numerous stray dogs. We cannot trust dogs. They just attack and bite in a wrong timing

If the dogs gave chase, I would squat down pretending to pick up a large rock to scare them off.

@May2k8 that's also what people are doing here. On my case I sat on the sand to gain strength while holding the peebles.

@RasmaSandra, I also love cats they're not biting humans. They're sweet. Doggies are sweet too if they're your pet, It's good to have a pet cat.

Not much bothers me. You did the right thing with the dog not knowing it. While you were running you were acting like prey. When you stopped that changed

@wolfgirl569 that's true, the more you run the more a dog feels aggressive to attack without pity.
