As someone that has been caused much pain and suffering by a loose dog, I would recommend speaking to the owner of the dog. If there is a leash law in your state, the dog owner would be liable in the event of an accident caused by the dog. Many owners are just careless and/or ignorant and the possibility of a lawsuit or claim may open their eyes.
As for dealing with the dog, many people recommend squirting water on them and/or using "Go home" or "NO!" in an authoritative pack leader voice.
Good luck and be careful!
