It never dawned on me that cows might attack until Lacey woofed at a “pack” of them w/ calfs yesterday. The giant cow was PISSED & wouldn’t let us pass. She came right up to us & bristled & huffed like a bull. We froze. 😳 1/ 
Every time we took a step forward, the giant cow bristled. I seriously don’t know what we would have done if another larger group of people hadn’t come along. We were able to blend in with them and walk past the cows to our car. Who knew? I did not. 2/
I read later that if this happens you should let go of your dog bc the cow will chase the dog instead of you. But what if you love your dog? And it was only a few woofs. 3/
We even tried to walk as far away from the cows as possible, up a hill on the other side of the path. The giant cow hustled over there as soon as we did, stared us down & did that huffing thing. It seems that cows do sometimes attack people. I had never ever heard this. 4/
The photo in post 1 is before things got scary. That’s the cow though. 5/
It was a beautiful hike, but we will not be going back, at least not with Lacey. 6/
12/ Yes, herd, sorry. Bulls?!

13/ Correction post 1: herd, not pack. I said pack bc it seemed more apt given what happened.
