I hate dogs!!

I thought I’d write a post about the nasty, mangy dogs that roam the streets around here. There are hundreds of stray, disgusting dogs around here. During the day it’s bad enough trying to avoid them all. They sleep in the middle of roads but at night it’s awful. They become a lot more vicious and protective of their areas. I have had quite a few bad experiences with them already!

I haven't taken pictures....I’m not getting close enough for long enough to get any pictures thanks!

When I was staying with friends’ at the beginning of June I was cycling back along their street late at night and there was a big white dog up ahead, so I deliberately avoided it but it cam chasing after me, barking at my heels. I was terrified! Riding the streets here after dark is certainly one way to get the adrenaline going.

A few of us went to their house last week for bible study, we got there safely. But the whole way home on the bikes we had to cycle on the wrong side of the road to avoid dogs and a few times groups of them chased after the bikes barking away. I was backing my friend on the bike which is normally hard work but I couldn’t make my legs go fast enough. We were trying to make noise going past all the dogs to scare them and in our hysterical panic Kara and I ended up singing/squealing out ‘the great escape’ which was actually quite apt for the situation! And this is a journey we’ll have to make every Thursday afternoon.....I would say these dogs are somewhat making me not want to go to bible study!
