Dog Repellents - Yeah or Nay?

My audible dog repellant that has served me well on several occasions is a loud "G'wan home!" and a well-timed sprint when the dog slows up his charge in surprise.

I also use "Gwan n git" or "Hay Puppy dawg" and I do usually slow or speed up.

more than once i have gotten off my bike and with the bike between me and the dog told it sternly to go home. (bad dog! NO!)
