I have been there, years ago in a campground.
A HUGE Alaskan Husky was upon us, came from behind me as I was walking my girl, I never saw that dog coming. All I heard was my dog screaming, I looked down and there's my sweet girl, on her back in a submissive position with this HUGE Husky over her, I grabbed her up, she was traumatized, screaming out of fear for over 5 minutes. That poor girl, every single walk at home she always looked behind her, she never forgot that incident.
The man that owned that husky that was "supposed" to have it on a leash (campground rules) came to me saying the dog was friendly, all the time my girl in my arms was screaming. I told him you know that, but look at my girl, she doesn't know that.
That was before I joined YT and saw the suggestion of using a big black self opening umbrella.
Always look behind you, always be prepared.
You were lucky you were able to swoop your baby up and out of harms way and had that umbrella with you.
