California is a “ruff” place to deliver the mail, according to annual data from the U.S. Postal Service that shows the state leads the U.S. in dog attacks against mail carriers.in California, up from 656 in 2021 and 67% more than Texas, which ranked No. 2 with 404 bites in 2022. New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio rounded out the top five states, with 321, 313 and 311 bites against mail carriers, respectively., with 48 dog attacks on mail carriers. Houston claimed the top spot with 57 bites in 2022.
Mail carriers are instructed not to startle dogs or assume they’re friendly. If a dog attacks, postal workers are trained to “stand their ground and protect their body by placing something between them and the dog — such as a mail satchel — and to use dog repellent, if necessary,” the USPS said. Letter carriers also have tools to flag dogs along their routes, including an alert feature on their scanners and warning cards that can be inserted with sorted mail.
