I'm curious - did this happen recently? A few months back there was an older couple (in their 50s or 60s) riding their bikes in the same direction. A loose dog came out of a yard at full tilt barking and gearing to chase after them. The house happens to be at the top of a blind hill (its a blind hill when coming from the Kaloli side.) Just at that moment a car was coming in the opposite direction and hit the dog. I've since seen the dog (it lived) but have noticed that it no longer goes out into the street. At the time I stopped to talk to the cyclists and they said the dogs always chased them when they rode by. The person who hit the dog felt terrible but it was one of those fluke things. Anyhoo the loose dogs at that end of 28th are a definite issue.
Yes, it happened about 2-3 weeks ago. I was chased by four dogs running out of the same yard. I was heading from Shower towards Kaloli. The reason I chose that street was that it was the first paved street after turning off the highway.
