[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 5728739, member: 52978"] My worst bite in my career came while running a split off another drive. I delivered on the country suburbs. They gave me 10 stops in the 'hood on the way to my area. Large house on maybe 3 acres. Chain link fence and the house is sitting directly in the middle of the lot. My dog senses were tingling. I lay on my horn. Nothing. I walk up to the fence and rattle it as hard as I can for a full 30 seconds. Nothing. I get about 3/4 of the way to the house and I hear BIG barks and growling, coming from the back of the house. I immediately turn back toward the truck, but I'm too far away. 3 large angry dogs are heading my way. A German shepherd, a pit bull and a mixed bread looking dog. They surround me and take turns running at me, as I try and make it to the safety of the gate. I throw the package at the shepherd, hit him and he backs down. The pit sees the opening and bites me right below my ass. I break my clipboard over his head. He is stunned and lets go. I make it to the gate and sit down on the first step of my pc, digesting what just happened. A neighbor walks over from across the street and says "You ain't the regular boy that delivers here, are you? He knows better than to go in that yard." I said "why don't they have a beware of dog sign posted?" He says "They used to, but the dogs ate the sign." True story. I ended up going to the hospital and getting it treated. Feeders looked better and better. lol. [/QUOTE]
