My dog is on the other side of the size spectrum, but she get's attacked from time to time by smaller dogs that see her as a threat. She is extremely docile, but she can take care of herself for the most part. She is getting old and I do step in if it escalates to anything more than growling or wrestling. Pepper spray works well, but be carefull to get pepper spray rather than Mace. Mace just pisses dogs off. Aim for the eyes, it won't do any permanent damage, but stops them cold. In your case, I would have saved a squirt or two for the owner. I'd also call the police or animal control. I'd cut her some slack if she made an effort to control her dog, but that kind of attitude just sucks. A few trips to court is in her future, the sooner the better.
