I used to yell those very same words at chasing dogs...... and rarely did the dog pay any attention to me. The a good friend taught me to yell, very sternly and calmly, "Stay!" Now I am not any kind of an expert on dog psychology or behavior. I've always been terrified of being chased by dogs while biking. (And don't they just sense that....) But so far, this has really worked. It seems to make the dog stop and think at least long enough for me to make my escape.
