Having lived at Ocean Beach for 12 years (some years ago) and being a dog owner for many of those years, I know how quickly the dog community can/will band together into a pack (pun intended). I've never seen a community activate faster than dog owners who sense a threat - in this case it was for off-leash access at OB and the whole Snowy Plover conundrum. Dog owners can be a strong enemy or an excellent ally.

While I don't think shit on your kite was much fun or deserved, I'd recommend choosing dog owners as allies, rather than the opposite...

Yeah, centrifecal force sucks. Not long ago I rode and I guess I hit some on that ride too and the trail tires tend to hold on to it for a bit, but some flew off and stuck to my shin. I was in my office later, smelled something and picked a piece of my shin and smelled it - sure enough, it was dogshit... Oh well, shit happens...
