I've never been chased by a dog on my bike, though I've been bitten by one when off the bike (stupid Jack Russell Terrier and stupid owner).

When I was a kid we also had a greyhound/German shepherd mix. Extremely docile dog, but there was no way we could outrun him on foot or bike.

Jack Russell's attitude's usually reflect the owners.. so stupid owner more fits. Sorry to hear.

There are some Catahoula cattle dogs in the area. They work in a pack of three and man are they fast. Can't outrun them as they can see you coming and are waiting in the ditch. They are ranch dogs so not viscious but they love to herd anything that moves. I've walked my bike out of their territory a couple of times which diappoints the hell out of them. They follow along at a slow lope for a while then loose interest and wander home. I've mentioned before about a semi-ferral collie up north that pops up anywhere over several miles of various roads in the area. PITA and rather viscious. I don't trust that one at all and avoid him at all costs. I've had to outrun him twice and it ain't easy. One of the few animals I'd pepper spray.

A Collie, surprisingly enough, was the fastest dog to ever chase me. I was descending a winding road, and that dog was keeping up pretty good.

Border Collies like to go from dusk to dawn and you need a friend with a greyhound to wear them out.

Collies can be pretty fast. I had one that wanted to race me down a hill and was a sore loser, once I pulled ahead, it starting a high pitch yapping bark as it ran its heart out. It did this a few times and now it just trots along as I climb the hill and does not try to race me down the other side.

There's a black lab that likes to race me on one of my rides. I can usually pull away around 30mph. If I'm tired, it runs on ahead and waits for me.
I am currently having problems with an agressive dog on a stretch where outriding it will not work. Don't know how this one will end. If it keeps it up, I will be having words with the owner.
