I was told by animal control not to do this because of the possibility the dog may turn it's aggression on me. She told me to carry an umbrella, either to use as a club, or swiftly opening it to break a dogs focus and possibly stop an attack. Even open, I've still got the metal point as a weapon.

Body language should tell you whether it's friendly approach or not.
