Dog Bite Prevention Training


St. Petersburg, FL, Midtown Station held a Dog Bite Awareness event to help ensure employees are prepared for the unexpected. 

The training involved letter carriers using targets and dog spray to perfect their aim, thereby lessening the chance of being bitten.

Letter Carrier and Safety Captain Dave Barnes (front, knelling) assisted in setting up the educational training.  Participants included Letter Carriers (L to R) Adam Obando, Victor Harris, Janice Pantoja, Dayron Alvarez Gonzales, and Gerardo Hernandez Cruz. Manager, Customer Service Operations (MCSO) Darrell Moore (second right) and National Association of Letter Carriers Branch #1477 President Joe Henschen (far right) were on hand to observe the training.

Great job!
