I think the South in more rural. You need to get further from the cities in the north to get to truly rural agrarian areas.
Having said that, I have very little trouble with loose dogs. The two counties I regularly ride have good animal control folks and as there are a lot of club riders in the area, I suspect any problem dogs are quickly reported.
