If I was them I'd say fuck it, if this person cared enough to put up a sign about their dog being a fur missile, why would you even bother to step foot past the fence? This person can get their package another way because I would mark it "unable to deliver" or throw it over the fence, if that was the only way available to attempt to make a delivery I'm not stepping foot into a marked viper pit |

Take your dog elsewhere if you can. What dog? There's more than one to skin a cat so to speak. If they order the dog put down they'll have to find it.
Or do nothing and see what happens. Guessing a lot of it will depend on where you live. |

It used to be that insurance would cover the 1st bite incident. But after that, if that dog ever bit anyone again, you'd have ZERO liability coverage. Someone sued you for a million dollars because your dog bites them ... you're on your own. I doubt the situation has become more lenient since then. |

I'm not even positive the drivers work for Amazon. I looked into being an Amazon contractor, but just like being a big truck fleet owner, my income/life would be in the hands of bottom of the barrel retards. Not to mention I'd have to buy/lease the Sprinters through Amazon. And that screams a bad deal. WC is probably through some Amazon deal too.

My wife's grandmothers dog bit a UPS guy. Little white Pomeranian never bit anyone before that. They filed their report with UPS,They filed with the county. County came and requested us to quarantine the dog for 30 or 40 days.

You might get a ticket also from the county dog warden if you have one ot someone that does it for the sheriff.
My dad got a ticket for like $200 in the late 80s for his dog supposedly biting a dude walking down a very rural road at 3 am. He ended up paying for the guys shoes(dog bit through them into his foot), and a small dr bill, and maybe $100 extra so he wouldnt push the issue further to make him whole, and a ticket. Also had to show a vaccinated record even back then for rabies. Luckily he had it done that year, my family was in the process of moving there from a state away. |

In NC there is pretty much a strict liability on dogs. My wife was bitten by a dog that she knew
and interacted with before. Bite was out of nowhere. Punctures in arm and she went to urgent care where she got a tetanus shot. She did not want the police or animal control in on it.  edit: the dog's owner was walking it on the road at the time. |

One thing I don't understand is why AG didn't have time to get behind the gate when he saw the dog running at him.
Is the dog that fast? Did AG not see the dog? Is the gate 6 feet from the front door? Did AG think the dog was coming for a treat and a pat on the head? |

OP,
If you have the chance to find a dog trainer I would recommend one that your vet recommends that has experience with reactivity. Beckman's Dog Training has several videos on it and it's fairly easy to work with you just need patience and the desire to make sure your dog knows that you are the dominant alpha in your home. I believe that dogs do this when they have a low threshold with reactivity and are not sure of their place in the pack in your home. I would put up an electric fence and also consider using E-Collar Training. If you have the fence up with the flags it is very obvious to people and is very defined line and will also tell delivery people not to cross into your yard. I wouldn't look at them as shock collars or that you are hurting your dog. The thresh hold for pain goes up with adrenaline rushes like that. Aussies aren't known for agonistic threshold being intense but they are highly biddable dogs so you should not have a problem redirecting the dog to a better task if you work on reactivity training. I believe their reactivity threshold will go down if you can get your dog adequate mental and physical exercise. If anyone tries to bring up that your dog is interently dangerous and needs to be put down look through this study on this Nurture vs Nature with dogs it should provide you with enough information to show someone that it isn't based on anything besides correcting socialization and reactivity. Technically your job which you are doing now. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abk0639 |

Well, all depends on the amazon guy.
If he does not report it to his managers they can deny any medical claim or terminate his job. As one mentioned, a "Beware of dog" sign can be asking for trouble. It displays you have a aggressive dog and have full knowledge of it. Yes some people put them up as a scare tactic, but it can also backfire on them. I do hope you hade no clue as to the delivery coming that day by the tracking. I watch my tracking when it says "out for delivery" to see when they delivered the package. If so you know someone is going to come to your house that day. Why would you not restrain/confine the dog? You say the front door was open, was it 100% open for dog to free roam in and out? Or was the inside door open and a screen/storm door closed to keep the dog confined to the house? These are things that can alter what way a insurance company or lawsuit may look/question liability. In their eyes, the sign, and open door can work against you. Coworkers sister was a Amazon delivery driver. She went up to a house to deliver to front door. A large Shepard mix came out bit her and she fell down 2 or 3 steps to the ground. Dog bit her again as she was on the ground. Local police cam did report, ambulance took her to the hospital. She was banged up from the fall and 2 or 3 bites. If I recall correctly he said the workers comp company went after home owner for all bills. Town police had dog quarantined 10 days, but it had to be at a veterinarian office for observation (more bills). Not sure what happened after that. My homeowners insurance has more or less a policy rule, "First bite is free, the next is on me"... As in if my dog bites someone, they will cover first incident, second bite i am liable for all damages and bills. They won't cover a second dog bite/attack.. I hope this is your dog's first incident, I also hope the guy is not looking for a payday. Unfortunately, in today's world most people want to get rich quick via a lawsuit. I am not a lawyer, Good luck. Oh, your pup is one cool ass looking dude... |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Dogsoldier03: "Beware of dog" doesn't imply the dog is dangerous, it is a warning and caution to people, to a possible dangerous situation. Most dogs are nice, but if you step into their yard as a stranger, they will typically react. Many dogs will bark aggressively, or move towards a stranger. Most dogs are all bark, no bite, but the warning is the same... not that the dog is knowingly dangerous, but that any stranger walking into a gated yard that has a dog should be warned, hence, "Beware of dog". Everytime I saw that sign, I took it as the property owner was informing me that their dog was aggressive |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Kiltakaze: In CO, he’ll likely go to the hospital or other clinic for care, medical staff in our state are required by law to report the bite to LE. It’ll be up to the delivery driver if he wants to pursue ownership of a dangerous dog charges, which he likely won’t. You will be expected to quarantine the dog for 10 days after the bite. That can generally happen at your house but some jurisdictions may take the dog to a holding facility Also here in CO a few years ago some friends of ours were at a local dog park when one of their little dogs bit a city worker there to empty trash. The worker told them they had nothing to worry about, but about ten minutes after he left a city supervisor showed up and told them they had to report the bite not just to LE but to local medical facilities too because of WC issues, or something along those lines. Their dog had to be quarantined for I think ten days, and they ended up being taken to court by the city. They had two court hearings, one to determine if the dog was vicious and the second one for restitution to the city. They got an anti dog judge for the first case, or so they were told, and he ended up declaring the dog a nuisance dog. He told them if it happened again he'd declare the dog a vicious dog and it would be put down. For the second hearing a few weeks later I guess the city didn't really push the issue and they didn't have to pay restitution. I know it's not exactly the same situation, but it wouldn't surprise me if things went in this direction. |

TIP for all members: if you have kids or friends with kids, once they get to be your age, would you be PROUD of them if they handled issues the way you do, or did in the past? if your honest answer is NO, then there still is hope for you, do what is right, "when there is doubt there is NO doubt" (movie Ronin) Were you under the impression modern conservatives held values? |

It will go through workers comp, I’d be surprised if you’re even contacted.
The what ifs and accusations in this thread are ridiculous, these bites happen non stop every day with delivery drivers inside gated properties. We already know what happens. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Scalped: Eh, probably nothing. My former coworker in a government position, was bit by a huge-ass GSD while in the field. Work took care of her. She didn't want to pursue the matter. A few years ago my old man's little dog bit the mail carrier. All USPS did was issue final warning and made him put a mail box up at the edge of his property. Personally, if a dog bit me while I was delivering a package on their property, I'd visit an injury lawyer asap. People really need to learn how to control their stupid dogs.

Let your homeowners insurance know immediately*. Their is liability coverage and med pay available for this. Their is also a “duty to defend” under the homeowners policy, meaning defend you against lawsuits and most likely duty to indemnify up to the limits of coverage. BUT your insurance company has a clause that coverage can be denied if you don’t notify them of the occurrence within a reasonable amount of time.
*What is immediately? You might wait a few days to see how it shakes out, but if it clearly is not resolved by Friday, I would let your agent know and let him advise you if he you should file a claim. |
