    There are plenty of stray mutts everywhere around here,I see the same ones every day when taking the kid to school,most of them don't even bother to move if your on a bike!
    When in the pick up I drive at them,they either move or a 2.ton truck will flatten them. They shouldn't be on the roads!

    I had a dog I eventually had to put down because he was snapping at the kids. The breed seems to be a mean one because I have had problems with this breed owned by others as well. Someone came to the house and gave the dog a free rabies shot. Dangerous job. The dog went from stupid, happy, domesticated dog look to pissed off, I'm going to kill you look the instant the needle went in.

    I agree that it is the responsibility of the owner to keep their dogs off the streets, properly fed and immunized would go a long way as well. I've seen some local dogs that do not leave their "yard" but most are just running wild. I'm a dog owner/lover as well but if dogs can not be taken care of then I am all for dog catchers to capture and cull (too bad you can't do that to the irresponsible owners).

    Glad nobody was injured! I have had similar experiences in PI it's not just a Duma problem.

    Once riding down Perimeter road in Angeles city a local came screaming past me probably going 100kmh as we neared the turnoff for VFW Post 2485 and a dog came running out into the street the local slammed on the brakes to avoid the dog but just fishtailed right into the large dog with such force it catapulted him off the bike and unfortunately right into a concrete telephone pole head first. Needless to say he was not wearing a helmet and died immediately. As for the dog the bike hit it squarely in the middle of the back and severed it's spine and it was trying to run away but only had use of his front legs and was just making horrible noises and going in circles until another local came out and put the dog out of it's misery. Very sobering incident to say the least. Since then I ride very defensively and at speeds safe for road conditions only.
