    Seconded about the dog warden.
    Bit obvious but have you had a tetanus jab for the bite? There's a surprising amount of bacterial horror growing on most dogs' teeth.

    Thats true - but talk to any doctor or nurse about the nastiest bites to treat... Answer is invariably "Human" (I guess this varies in places with large shark/crocodile/alligator/snake/big cat populations)
    Cannondale Synapse 105, Giant Defy 3, Giant Omnium, Giant Trance X2, EMC R1.0, Ridgeback Platinum, On One Il Pompino...

    The dogs only chase you because you're moving, usually biking away can make it worse.

    I get no end of dogs trying to bite me when I go around the local area, just stop, the dog then usually get worried what you're going to do and stops too, also that way if the dog is a total nutter you can hit it with the bike or your foot.

    I swung my bike at one little sh*t of a dog once, owner saw me from afar and thought he had a right to mouth because I was attacking his dog, I swiftly corrected the idiot in a pilot manner ;).
