This week marks the beginning of National Dog Bite Awareness week for the United States Postal Service."Don't let your dog bite the hand that serves you." That's the motto for this year's National Dog Bite Awareness Week.
"I knew they had dogs, that's why I rattled the cage a bit to make my presence known. But when I knocked on the door, they came right at me," she recalled. She asks homeowners to be responsible for their pet's safety and the safety of anyone who might be knocking on their door.
