    Two things

    Feral dogs are generally not dangerous, these are dogs who have people walk by them constantly, who are fed by random people, who eat from trashcans. Perhaps you mean dogs who have an owner but the owner lets them roam freely.
    And even if they seem aggressive, dogs often just want to bark at you untill they consider you have left their territory, not necessarily want to attack you.

    And what the russian said is true. If many neighbours hate a particular dog because it is dangerous, someone will probably poison it. You just have to throw something tasty to them with the poison inside.

    I don't trust people who hate dogs btw, I never met anyone like you

      I don't know about poison. They might just stone it or beat it to death with pipes or something.

        A man had a cougar (I mean Puma, mountain Lion) in his garden. Neighbours scared at the possibility of it escaping threw meat with pieces of broken glass. It killed the poor beast.
        Generally, if someone has a very dangerous animal who has attacked people many times, the way they kill it is throw in the middle of the night food mixed with poison or broken glass at the animal.

        I have never heard of stoning, when you can just shoot it. The food poison method is popular because generally no one finds out who did that.

          I totally get that, but throwing rocks or bludgeoning the animal seems more "Philly" to me.

            Albie does make Philly sound like Kurdistan. I pretend he exagerates or makes things up. I actually don'y believe he has had to jump fences to barely escape from dog attacks.

              He might be a resident neurotic who scares away from anything, a bit of an anti-Pekka.

                Sheesh, I used to do canvassing. It's just a threat display, albert. You need to get some dog handling lessons to learn how to act around them.

                  Why doesn´t he just buy and wear a traditional european stray dog bite protection suit?

                      I have never shrieked from a dog though I probably should to get attention from anyone nearby to my plight. And the dogs are always large dogs. Wolf-sized.

                          Ignoring the fact that an adult male wolf might be 100 lbs where as your average lab is ~40lbs. Oh, and the lab wouldn't know how to eat a rabbit much less how to catch one.

                              An average adult lab weighs more like 70lbs. Are you including puppies in that figure?

                                I said dogs attack me in the middle of the day. I've never been robbed by humans in the middle of the day. I would take other precautions if I had to travel at night so the threat level from humans is far lower than the threat level from dogs.

                                What is wrong with you that you can't understand why I said that?

                                And what the **** does a dog's training have to do with ****? It doesn't matter that a human 'made' the dog a vicious killer when the dog is jumping at your throat. How did you even think that was relevant?
                                I'm surprised you can't connect the comment to the original statement. Or maybe I'm not given your track record.
