The latest entry on Postal Posts, the USPS blog, features an employee’s first-hand account of surviving a dog attack.
The post was written by Susan Ezrol, a Vienna, VA, letter carrier who was bitten by a dog on her route.
“The dog’s owners left their front door open to bring in groceries at the same time as I was delivering their mail. That’s all it took. Before I knew it, their dog had its teeth clamped on my leg,” Ezrol writes.
The post is part of USPS National Dog Bite Awareness Week, which concludes Sunday, June 9.
