Neighbour dogs roaming the Moobaan.

Befriend them by regularly giving dog treats. Encourage others to do the same. Don't show any fear. Be strong and in control. Never give treats while they're being aggressive. Ignore the replies below advocating poisoning and shooting, and don't carry a stick.

OK, I'll bite. What's wrong with carrying a stick? I have often found it to be an effective way to avoid actually harming a dog. Wave the stick, no problem, dogs stay away.

Did you forget to suggest, "lie down and expose your throat"?

As somebody who regularly walks a leashed dog I find carrying a stick ESSENTIAL. On each walk I am threatened by many on the loose dogs. A quick wave of my stick normally makes them back off but not stop barking. Only a few times have I actually met a dog that came close enough to make contact with the stick and they never try it again.

Befriend an 'out of control', 'on the loose' dog, NEVER. Feed them treats; NEVER. They are a menace and so are the people who allow them to be there.
