When I lived in Paris, TX, some guys wanted to put together a gravel route so they scouted some roads. Lots of dogs on gravel country roads, a bike is a novelty to them. A couple of riders went out with bear spray and each dog that left the driveway to charge them got a blast. They did it two days in a row, probably over the top, but on all the following group rides the dogs would just bark from the driveway. I think they were lucky some bubba didn't take exception to their dog being sprayed.
