Outside of the pitbull(s) what were they running for. At that point you may as well turn around and square up. One good punch and he gon start hollering and if that don’t work stomp his ass out. It is what it is. Most of them dogs were downright cute. You leave em off the leash you gonna watch em get the beats.
I had a friend in grade school used to hit a 4 flat just from a dawg howling behind a fence. Dawg was looking at me like he good? You running is only gonna make it worse. Dude ended up getting a dawg wild as hell, no training. That mofo would hump and slob on anything except him. Crazy how things go.
