[quote=Anonymous]I was walking my dog (on a leash) on my street and a much larger, loose dog was standing on a lawn (hill) above us.  I saw a woman ahead calling to the dog (the dog had apparently gotten loose, she wasn't walking it without a leash) and suddenly the dog lunged down the hill and leaped on top of my dog, who is smaller and still kind of a puppy (just turned 2).  I started yelling and pulled my dog loose, then kicked the dog in the side to move it away.  It came around and leaped on my dog again, and once again I pulled my dog free, kicked the other dog and by then the owner had run up and grabbed her dog.  She was appropriately concerned and apologetic - clearly upset for me and my dog.  Wondering, though, what else or different I could have done to rescue/protect my dog if something like that happens again?  I didn't want to get bit, but I didn't want to see my dog hurt, either.  Advice?

My dog is fine, by the way, no bites and seems like he's over it.  I am still a little shaken up![/quote]
