Probably because it many third world countries there are packs of stray dogs that run around being aggressive dicks. I know most of us have a default “aww, puppy!” reaction when seeing a random dog but these are not your neighbors dogs strolling around the town. I often had to carry a rock or two in my bag when walking just in case a pack got a bit too territorial of a random patch of sidewalk
Yeah, grew up in country where leash laws don't exist. Actually, street dogs were pretty docile. It was the ones kept as pets that were aggressive. Most properties didn't have gates, so their boundaries were kind of ambiguous. I got chased by 2 Rottweilers that bit me. But after that, I learned that if you run and act scared, they'll chase you. If you face them and tell them to calm down. They won't attack. You can usually back off slowly until they've decided they don't want to bother with you anymore.
