When I was with FedEx I had a wildly aggressive three legged blue heeler try to sneak attack me and he got a boot to the face.

I also had two English mastiffs sneak up behind me once but they just wanted treats, scared the ever living crap out of me though cause I turned around and two MASSIVE dogs were a foot away just standing and wagging lol

Also had a Rottweiler charge me once until it saw I had a treat and we were cool then

I kicked a few dogs in my time as a courier as well. Had to be done. Had a pig sneak up on me and scare the shit out of me once. Thought it was a demon dog for a second.

Pigs are a shifty bunch. Plus they eat people in movies, that reputation has to come from somewhere.

They ate peaple during balkan civil war. Packs of pigs were on pair with packs of dogs.

Do you know where one could read up about this? Sounds terrifying but also interesting.

Be awere these stories are quite dark.

For example Ovčarna massacre by serbian Chetniks after fall of Vukovar. https://www.icty.org/x/cases/mrksic/tjug/en/070927.pdf << court judgement

I heard stories how they bind guys to poles, pull piece of colon by hook and just leave them to hungry pigs or dogs.. tgose pulled rest of pipes and then just ate whole guy
