Another loose pooch on Anglesberger Rd., small home on the left, before the left turn onto Wilhide. Dog is a small white breed that chased us for almost 1/4 mile (we were riding back towards Lewistown). Owners were outside, heard us yell but no response and let the dog run.
A member reports a dog encounter at the corner of Yeagertown and Boyers Mill near New Market. The dog took off after the cyclist as a car was passing, knocked him into the drainage ditch on the side of the road. He reports that he had no injuries or broken parts.
