Thanks, everybody. I especially appreciate the suggestions. One of the reasons I was so thorough in my explanation on the blog is I see this as a problem all of us face. As KJC says, we all really do need a plan because it could happen to any of us who walk our dogs in public. I was hoping for ideas and delighted I got some.

I'll definitely be giving it some more thought.

Thanks again for the kind words.
