In central California, dog attacks on livestock are a growing problem. I also have experienced very aggressive farm and ranch dogs. I remember such encounters as a paperboy that ended by my sacrificing a few papers to be chewed up after having my bicycle bags, and one on occasion my pant cuff, being chewed.
I don't want it to be a problem for me, but I am thinking through likely threats and how to deal with them. Especially if I had to go cross-county in a bug out scenario, I would expect a dog encounter or two as I went through "their" territory.
An internet search provided the same kind of ideas already mentioned in this thread and links to various products:
