U.S. Postal Service Releases
Dog Attack National Rankings

BROOKLYN, NY — The number of postal employees attacked by dogs nationwide fell to 5,714 in 2018 — more than 500 fewer than in 2017 and more than 1,000 fewer since 2016. Today, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) highlights technology that likely helps to reduce potential attacks while releasing its annual list of cities with the most recorded dog attacks. The organization also highlights safety initiatives to help protect its employees and offers tips to pet owners.

“Our employees have been great at taking preventative measures against dog attacks, but they need help from our customers, too,” said USPS Safety Director Linda DeCarlo. “We are confident we can keep moving the trends of attacks downward, and ramping up overall awareness for everyone is the best way to do that.”

Tips and Technology

DeCarlo was in Brooklyn, NY today to kick off National Dog Bite Prevention Week, which runs Sunday, April 14, through Saturday, April 20. According to her, technology supports carrier safety in at least two ways: Mobile Delivery Devices, or scanners, used by carriers to confirm customer delivery, include a feature to indicate the presence of a dog at an individual address. And the Package Pickup application asks customers to indicate if dogs are at their address when they schedule package pickups, which allows USPS to send alerts to those carriers.

The Postal Service offers the following safety tips:

  • When a letter carrier delivers mail or packages to your front door, place your dog in a separate room and close that door before opening the front door. Dogs have been known to burst through screen doors or plate glass windows to attack visitors.
  • Parents should remind children and other family members not to take mail directly from letter carriers in the presence of the family pet. The dog may view the letter carrier handing mail to a family member as a threatening gesture.
  • If a letter carrier feels threatened by a dog, or if a dog is loose or unleashed, the owner may be asked to pick up mail at a Post Office or another facility until the letter carrier is assured the pet has been restrained. If the dog is roaming the neighborhood, the pet owner’s neighbors also may be asked to pick up their mail at the area’s Post Office.

Poster’s Comment;

From here:
As our readers know, police officers killing dogs in the Land of the Free is such a common occurrence that it has its own terminology: puppycide. Despite postal workers, delivery drivers and pizza personnel coming into contact with dogs on a much more regular basis, it’s the police who are in the news because they can kill them with impunity.

Postal workers should be allowed to armed in order to shoot dogs that attack them.

DOJ: Police Shooting Family Dogs has Become ‘Epidemic’

I had to go out and find the story.

In doing that, I found out that the DOJ did NOT state that – The DOJ definitely did not.

What the author did was find one single little individual in the backroom of the “Department of Justice’s (“DOJ”) community-oriented program services office” somewhere who for whatever personal reason made that statement. He was not speaking for the DOJ and making an authorized statement for publication.

Then author then concives a click-bait attention getting headline to transition into his rant. And then he did – a long one.

Chicanery …

Don’t believe things you read on the Internet.

Sucker …

How you and Deckard can ever so easily be deceived and constantly fooled by these yellow journalism articles boggles the mind.

Well – Not really …

You two just read a headline and it says WHAT you WANT to BELIEVE and then lickety-split you run with it.

Amazing …

Oh, but you keep on trying – And I am going to keep on having fun with you.
