[QUOTE="Rita Flower, post: 1146080, member: 98525"] Sorry to say that people will post more of what didn’t work, scared or frustrated them in all areas (dogs, accommodations, people etc) than what was OK. Yes, there have been a a number of people bitten by dogs - out the thousands who walk all the Caminos. Then there have been many more posts about dogs that frightened people but did not bite. Last year I walked for a while with a man who had been frightened of dogs since childhood. . We were on a section of the Via where we were walking through someone’s property. There were a number of big dogs. We kept walking at the same pace while I chatted to the dogs in a low dog friendly voice. As we got to the last gate I turned around and the dog growled. It surprised me but I immediately realised the fog was saying - keep walking, no stopping here on this property. We just kept going and all was well. Then on the Sanabres there is a big black dog that belongs to the Oseira monastery that walks with pilgrims for about 5 Km. Very friendly. And I think on the Francés there are not that many dogs. The only ‘dog deterrent’ I know is dog friendly behaviour = keep walking - don’t make eye contact or confront - chat in a low calm voice - keep calm by using the breath. Buen Camino 🐕 [/QUOTE]
