Well, you get to decide what you're going to do. I think it'd be a pity, though, for 20 seconds of video to deter you from the TransAm route because of dogs.
Pete mentioned Halt! and I carried some on my TransAm trip. Rather than daily, on the worst part of the trip, I probably pulled the Halt! spray twice a week or less, and used it perhaps a half dozen times. There was half a can left at the end of my ride.
As for hills, I can't remember all the "contours of the land" quote -- perhaps someone can help me here? I relished conquering the contours of the Appalachians as an obese, middle aged, and overloaded man. If that sounds too tough, take the 2% maximum grade on the Eastern Express instead. (Or you could do it younger, slimmer, and less loaded, but where's the fun in THAT?)
