There is a stray dog problem where I live too. I walk my smaller dog on a regular basis. The only dogs that have been real problems are littler ones as well. I will usually let them close if I dont think they are a problem but sometimes they get visious and I give them a good kick to the ribs/head/whatever. That has worked everytime for these small mutts.
Bigger ones I dont let get close. I put myself between my dog and it. Depeite what the experts say I stare the dog down right in the eyes. They say this can enrage the dogs as it is a challenge but it is also a way of establishing dominance as long as you are not the first to break off eye contact. Has always worked so far. If it charges I am protecting myself not my dog. I dont think it would matter either way in the eyes of the law.
