I love dogs but.........

Living in Boston very seldom see a dog running free. I have noticed though when I am out running if a dog is free and I am running they will chase after me but if I see a free dog and slow down to a walk they ignore me. Is this normal behavior for dogs?

Yes, it is. One of the first things told to someone with a fear of dogs is, don’t run. They will either see it an invitation to play, or it will prompt their hunting instincts, and they will give chase.

They are attracted to quick movement because of prey drive. I'm pretty sure.

Totally normal. Just slowdown and talk to them.
