Hmmm.  If I'm already going too slow to evade the beast, the best 
thing I've found is to stop dead, stick out a hand, and invite the
dog to come make friends.  Ten gets ya one it'll turn tail and run,
but if you're really persistent, you'll have it fawning all over you
in short order.  At this point you can gracefully bid it a fond
goodbye and ride away, leaving the owners of the aforementioned
pickup truck collecting their jaws off the ground.
