how to stop a strange dog from jumping on you (on a fitness walk)
Why are strange dogs jumping on you when you're outside? Is the dog a stray, or is the owner very irresponsible? Personally, if the dog is jumping on you and he/she has an owner, I'd write a complaint. If the dog is a stray, call Animal control to pick the dog up so they can try and find the owner or put the dog up for adoption.
When I used to walk to school and back I had this one dog that used to run out at me, barking and going mad, it scared me to no end. Unfortunately there isn't much you can do, at least I don't think you can. Perhaps take a different route on your fitness walk and avoid the dog! Good luck :)
which ever side the dog approaches from lift your knee up in front of you so he clunks his head when he comes up thats how to train even known dogs to stay down only takes a few times its not cruel to the dog just a little inconvenient
wear spikes on your pants lol!!
just stay away from it
