If they attack, then kill them, it's that simple.

That's the way I look at it. While I start with non-lethal non-harmful whistles and yelling, by the time I'm yelling, I am directing any fear into anger/determination that if you bite me you die. I believe this is a good method. So far, the dogs have sensed this and backed off. If I see the owner, I'm very vocal with my threat to the dog. I want the owner to see the downside of their dog harassing people on public roads. Fortunately, I've never had to follow through with the determination to harm a vicious dog, I really don't have any desire to harm them, but a vicious loose dog is just not something that will end well.

Good, but I think by the time you start yelling and whistling, the angry dog will have already done his job (biting). So in my opinion, it's better to act quickly and resort to lethal measure.
