....and a lawsuit.I have had this said to me many o' times but this past Friday as I was being told that precious Fido wouldnt bite me the dog was simultaneously chewing on my a%*!!!! Really??? So for the past few days Ive have a sore rear-end and a new hatred for Rottweilers....
Your better off just letting him finish.This one place on my route has a mega huge lab golden retriever mix. I used to have to go into the yard really quiet and fast because this dog would latch onto me and hump me if he got the chance. I wasent he only driver. Everyone else who used to go there would be like what the hell is up with that dog that goes balls out and tried to hump you. Wtf
Of all the dogs there are, I trust heelers the least. They are sneeky conniving little bastards. At least with a Rott or a Pit or a Shepard, they will stand there and stare you in the face. A heeler will sneek up and attack from behind.The only dog that has got me good was a blue heeler that crawled under my truck and hid behind my tire. When I went to climb in the little bastard nipped my leg.
i fed and petted a bull mastiff from a pup.when he turned 2 he became aggressive and territorial.he bit a{small kid} member of the owners family,. in the face{cant imagine the scar,this dog is HUGE}.i now leave all packages with a relative next door.the dog has a shock collar to keep him in the yard.its like he changed over night.i assume all dogs bite and take such precautions.

I have a house that I deliver to that is owned by a well-known Atlanta TV news personality that recently retired. Her husband is in law enforcement and thinks its a good idea to have their German Shepherd trained to attack people. I usually don't do this, but I started carrying Milkbone dog treats and I would throw them over the fence to make friends with the dog. She laughed and was fine with it when I told her. The other day, he was standing at their gate with the dog when I pulled up to a stop. The dog started pacing back and forth and was looking for his treat. The guy got all ticked off when I told him that his dog was only wanting a treat, he said "Now I have to send him off for re-training now". He was pretty ticked off, I'm surprised he didn't call in a complaint. If that dog does bite me, it will be the first and only time.

Heelers are a nuisance, but they generally only nip at you because of their herding instincts. The two breeds I distrust the most are German Shepherds and Chows. They are big dogs and I have a hard time reading their body language, and Chows in particular tend to not be very people friendly. Pitbulls, rotties and dobies are all big and can be intimidating, but I can read their body language like a book and tell just by looking whether or not they are going to be a problem.

I had a customer tell me not to worry, her 'dog didn't bite', as the dog was latched onto the upper-heel area of my boot.
I looked at the lady, looked at the dog, set the package down on the spot and walked away (thank you Union-made, -kicking Carolina boots!).
Ankle-biters are the worst, it's like they have something to prove...
