[:]

A most useful and amusing chapter on handling dogs while cycling
appears in "Richard's Bicycle Book."  I haven't a copy with me, but
I have seen it in bookstores across the land.  Particularly
useful is advice that most dogs are trained to think twice when
someone shouts "NO!" at them, and I find this works.

There is also has a paragraph or two on fighting dogs, when necessary.
The last resort, as I recall, was to "shove your entire arm down the dog's
throat; he will choke and die.  Better your arm than your throat."

I'm sure others have recommended this useful and stylish book for 
its other contributions, as well.
