As part of the USPS 2024 National Dog Bite Awareness Campaign, the organization is offering crucial information on how dog owners can be good stewards for safe mail delivery and ensure the safety of our employees.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prni_dvprnejpg1099left\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"width: 100%; text-align: left;\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"prnejpg1099left\" title=\"Linthicum Heights, MD, letter carrier T.J.

This year&#8217;s theme is &#8220;Don&#8217;t let your dog bite the hand that serves you.&#8221;\u00a0Spread the news of the campaign with the hashtag<b> #dogbiteawareness<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Letter carriers are exposed to potential hazards every day, none more prevalent than a canine encounter. All it takes is one interaction for a letter carrier to possibly suffer an injury,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Leeann Theriault<\/span>, USPS Manager, Employee Safety and Health Awareness. &#8220;The U.S. Postal Service consistently encourages responsible pet ownership. The national dog bite campaign is an effort to promote dog bite awareness to keep our customers, their dogs, and letter carriers safe while delivering the mail.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Dog Owners Can Help With Safe Mail Delivery<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Letter carriers know all dogs can bite, even those perceived as nonaggressive. Dogs are generally protective of their turf and dog owners have an important responsibility to control them to ensure safe mail delivery.<\/p>\n<p>Most people know the approximate time their letter carrier arrives every day. Securing your dog before the carrier approaches your property will minimize any potentially dangerous interactions.<\/p>\n<p>When a letter carrier comes to your home, keep dogs:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Inside the house or behind a fence;<\/li>\n<li>Away from the door or in another room; or<\/li>\n<li>On a leash.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pet owners also should remind children not to take mail directly from a letter carrier as the dog may view the carrier as a threat to the child.<\/p>\n<p><b>Stay Informed, See the Mail Before It Arrives<\/b><\/p>\n<p>By using Informed Delivery, a free USPS service, customers can digitally preview incoming mail and packages from a computer, tablet or mobile device. More than 52 million customers have enrolled since the service was launched in 2017. Sign up is at <i><a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4177105-1&amp;h=2470824513&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Finformeddelivery.usps.com%2Fbox%2Fpages%2Fintro%2Fstart.action&amp;a=informeddelivery.usps.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">informeddelivery.usps.com<\/a><\/i>. This service can help dog owners anticipate when their carrier will arrive.<\/p>\n<p><b>Consequences of a Dog Attack<\/b><\/p>\n<p>According to the most recent information available from the Insurance Information Institute, the average cost per insurance claim for a dog bite is <span class=\"xn-money\">$64,555<\/span>. When a postal employee suffers an injury, the owner could be responsible for medical bills, lost wages, uniform replacement costs, and pain and suffering for the employee.<\/p>\n<p><b>Staying Focused on Delivering<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Letter carriers are trained to observe an area where they know dogs may be present. They are taught to be alert for potentially dangerous conditions and to respect a dog&#8217;s territory.<\/p>\n<p>Letter carriers are trained to:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Make a non-threatening noise or rattle a fence to alert a dog if entering a yard;<\/li>\n<li>Never startle a dog;<\/li>\n<li>Keep their eyes on any dog;<\/li>\n<li>Never assume a dog will not bite;<\/li>\n<li>Never attempt to pet or feed a dog; and<\/li>\n<li>Place their foot against an outward swinging door to prevent a dog from escaping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If a dog attacks, carriers are also trained to stand their ground and protect their body by placing something between them and the dog \u2014 such as a mail satchel \u2014 and to use dog repellent, if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Even though a customer&#8217;s dog is friendly to most people, it can always have a bad day,&#8221; said letter carrier <span class=\"xn-person\">Tara Snyder<\/span>. &#8220;I know, from experience, even when a dog is in the house, customers need to make sure their door is secure so their dog can&#8217;t push it open and bite the letter carrier.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Letter carriers have tools to alert them to dogs on their routes. A dog alert feature on carriers&#8217; handheld scanners can remind them of a possible dog hazard, and dog warning cards must be used during mail sorting to alert carriers to addresses where a dog may interfere with delivery.<\/p>\n<p><b>Holding the Mail<\/b><\/p>\n<p>When a carrier feels unsafe, mail service can be stopped. Until the carrier feels safe enough to restart delivery, the mail will have to be picked up at the dog owner&#8217;s local Post Office. If a carrier feels a house or neighborhood is unsafe to deliver the mail and there is no way to inform residents their mail service has been suspended, the residents would have to contact the supervisor at their local Post Office for more information. The residents would also have to pick up their mail at the Post Office until it is safe to resume delivery. If a dangerous dog issue is not resolved, owners can be required to rent a Post Office box to receive mail.<\/p>\n<p><b>2023 Dog Attack Rankings by City<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The top 20 ranking consists of 30 cities, as some cities reported the same number of attacks.
