Yesterday I met up with a usual gang of dogs about .75 miles into my run. They always bark and follow, but rarely closely. They acted pretty much the way they normally do at that time.

I live in México where I would guess 80% or more of the dogs running around are not owned by anyone. They may be fed regularly from the table scraps of the houses on their streets, but no one takes responsibility for them nor would be found to feed them enough to claim ownership. So, I won't be letting any bite me in hopes of finding an owner to sue. :) Today I ran through a new neighborhood and as the dogs got good and stirred up from me running through, a man on a bicycle was coming from the other direction. He saw the commotion and pulled out a long stick from his bag to be ready for the potential chasing he might get. Fortunately, nothing happened. I don't know what is going on. I have been running for almost 7 months here and the dogs have never been aggressive until this last week. Maybe there is something going on with the weather. Leash? Owners?

Here in Tennessee, we do have leash laws (not always followed) and some dogs are allowed to roam free. I was once chashed by a roup of small dogs during a 10 miler race when I missed a turn.
