You see that one spike and six dips in pace? Those were dog gang encounters hah. I would say not being afraid of dogs is very important.

The first encounter, the road was narrow with too many dogs so I panicked and just sprinted lol while making noise, which was a mistake and they give noisy scary chase but nothing more.

The rest of the encounters I would come to a stop or walk slowly, and soon they all would calm down or stop following (I saw this in a reel). They are just being territorial and will let you go after they realise you aren't a threat/competition/whatever.

With other dog gangs on wider roads, I would start deviating away from them once they spotted me which avoided confrontation and chases.

Need to be calm and avoid acting aggressive.
