Is it normal for mailmen to carry pepper spray?

Yes

Bad luck. Mailman didn't do a thing to your son. If you want to be mad about

Thanks, mailmen have a tough job. They need as much empathy as they can get.

I can only imagine what they endure with dogs. Anyone who has gone door to door

Hard to blame the mailman for fearing such a beast.

Wait for him by your mailbox tomorrow. Pepper spray him.

I'm thinking of setting up a trap when he opens the mailbox it sprays out.

8man

Total joke, I'd never do that.

8man

The regular mail carrier? That seems very cruel

As a mailman I can say we are trained to spray any dog that comes at us.

Dogs have sharp teeth, and if it's unrestrained and barking and coming at you

How much of a dog bite is "OK"?

Eddie

No dog bite is okay. Look, if it were my dog I'd say pepper spay is justified

Mrs Featerbottom

Mission plus 3 summer of knocking doors, I get it. It sucks, I've been attacked

8man

8/20/18 9:06pm

You do realize that it is your responsibility to restrain your dog

thebruce

8/20/18 9:14pm

Of course I do. For the rare occasion that my dog gets out the front door I feel

8man

Mailman had great judgment.

The Post Office feels that all dog attacks are preventable...

100% on the owner.

If dogs are under control, there is never any decision the mailman has to make.

The problem I have the most is when I knock on a door and a kid answers and the dog runs out from behind them.

Holy Driver

8/21/18 2:27pm

He shouldn't have to run away from the dog either. (Or walk fastly)

ochobeeguy

8/20/18 9:38pm

I feel for mailmen. Door to door salesmen deserve to get bitten.

OpusX

Everyone’s job training includes nonsensical things so the company can CYA.

Mrs Featerbottom

Our mailman gives our old fat golden a treat every day.

Shame on the mailman for ignoring his training!

You should probably control your dog

Bummer, but you should be a more responsible pet owner.

I've been pepper sprayed in the face before.

Every dog is harmless, until they aren’t

Couldn't you say this about practically anything?

Blubook

8/20/18 10:02pm

As usual, thanks for all the different views and perspectives CB gives. I admit

8man

8/20/18 11:25pm

Making a mistake doesn’t justify a dumb decision by the mailman.

Mrs Featerbottom

8/20/18 11:34pm

Clueless. Did you follow this thread at all?

Tsisquan

8/20/18 11:38pm

Yeah I read most of the responses and think the mailman exercised poor judgment

Mrs Featerbottom

8/20/18 11:46pm

That calls your judgement into question

shakarocks

Agree.

8man

And I commend you for that.

Mrs Featerbottom

That was good of you to admit. I'm sure it wasn't easy. I'm not a dog person

I am a dog person. And I love my dog.

My dog is a Freaky scary breed. Doberman so my yard is fenced.

This is on you for letting your dog get too close to a mailman, bro. Sorry.
