Dogs invade every sense (aside from taste, I guess) of the people around them. Ignoring them isn't an available option, unfortunately.
While I agree with you about Firefly . . . . a "curious" dog is just an excuse to let your dog rudely approach people you don't know . . . . . . you are also over-the-top on the other stuff.

The only hope you have is the extermination of roughly 90 million dogs in Canada/USA.

Since that isn't going to happen you'll need to either 1) become a family of hermits in the mountains or 2) make an accommodation with the dogs.

First step . . . . . come out to my place next Spring and help me pick up the 300 or so piles of accumulated winter dog poop that are emerging from the snow courtesy of two Golden Retrievers.
