Don't make eye contact. Usually dogs get agressive when stared back at.
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

No. Run in a cat suit. Chase the dogs. Dogs love irony.

Makes you wonder why the website even offers an email.
Totally disagree. Look the dog in the eye. Stare it down. Stare it down as you walk away. Averting your eyes is a sign of weakness. You MUST play alpha dog. If you play weak, you are playing prey.
If you're in the street and a dog approaches you and its body language looks aggressive, be cautious. Stand your ground. Don't look the dog in the eyes but back away slowly.
* Never run away. Stay still and remain quiet. * Don't make any sudden movements with your hands. The dog will acknowledge this as a threat. * Avoid eye contact. * The dog will eventually let down his guard and back off. * At this point, you can slowly move away from the situation.
