If a dog shows signs of aggression don't look into his eyes, the dog will take this as a challenge, never smile the dog could interpret this as you baring your teeth instead slowly back away and out of the dog's field of view. Don't run away as this triggers the dog's chase instinct. If several dogs are attacking you try to get somewhere high because dogs can't climb or raise your hands above your head and roar loudly to scare them away. Use things like sticks or a backpack to keep the dog from getting close enough to bite. But if you do start getting bitten focus on protecting your neck, face, chest and groin area. If you can wrap your forearm with clothing to get the dog to chew on that other tricks include falling on with your weight and striking it at the base of its skull. If you must attack the dog with a knife trying to stab it under its front leg or just above its shoulder. You can also try covering the dog's head with a coat which often subdues it or lifts the dog's hind legs up in the air which limits its ability to maneuver. If you have been bitten don't forget to get yourself checked out the hospital.
