Good advice, also against tough melee enemies like armored njerps, bears, or wolfpacks i find the best option is to keep the dogs leashed and back into a corner or a wall of trees so that enemies can only approach from the front. the dogs in front will act as a screen, allowing you to step out from behind and deal damage, then back away again. The enemy will be forced to split its attention between you and the dogs, either way they will be getting attacked from multiple dogs at once. I do this with 3 dogs (i find any more and it gets a little hard to manage) and I have never lost a fight.
For hunting, 3 dogs will also pretty much always tire out any large game. It's as easy as finding the animal, unleashing the dogs, order them to attack, and follow the barking/running tracks. Then just walk up and club the breathless animal to death. Voila, instant pelt and meat every time.
