When we first moved to NJ many years ago my husband decided to take his bike (pedaling kind, not like the kind Edwina is planning to learn to ride...hehe!) for a ride on one of the country roads near us. He came back huffing and puffing because he had been chased but a dog who was barking at him and trying to bite his feet as he pedaled. I don't know what kind of dog it was and honestly I don't think my hubby even cared! He just wanted to get out of there. Fortunately he was able to out-pedal the dog. That wouldn't be the case today! LOL!
