I was hiking on my own in southern France. I wanted to walk up to the Tour de la Massane above Argelès-sur-Mer near Perpignan. I passed one farmhouse with two dogs trying to block my way and I passed them, feeling very uneasy doing so. About a kilometre further on, the road led past another farmhouse and this time it was four dogs that barricaded the my way. I didn’t dare to go back (because of the two I had already met) so I kept walking and the old guys were hanging back but the black one kept getting closer. I decided not to chance it and took the next turn back down towards where I had parked the car. He was friendly enough but followed me all the way back to my car, I guess he wanted to make sure that I really left.
