As I rode away from the border entering Bulgaria an alsatian raced at me and grabbed my leg. However with the help of proper bike boots and an accelerating 1200GS there was no injury.
In Morocco the most scary animal I came across was a cow standing in the middle of the road. I stopped, it stood and stared at me for a minute or so before loping off. In hindsight I would stop earlier and not get so close, so I had more escape options as reverse is not practical.
But riding a bike around north west Africa has a number of risks greater than being attacked by a dog. Enjoy your trip!
