I have heard of the squirting the dog with the water bottle trick. Also, just yelling at them with authority and scaring THEM instead of the other way around. I was chased once and I ended up simply pushing hard and fast to get away, but was scared that it wasn't going to be enough and didn't know how long he'd keep chasing. Luckily his owner called him back and all was well. I hadn't heard of the water bottle trick at that time.

I MUST know what this being chased by a horse thread is all about!!! I love horses and my daughters have one they compete with. I can't imagine being chased by a horse!
