Canada Post is reporting an increased number of incidents involving dogs and mail carriers in Prince George.
Carriers must have access to mailboxes and front doors, Canada Post advises. "This is our No. 1 priority and responsibility as an employer to every employee."
Canada Post asks this of dog owners:
- Be careful when you answer the door, so your dog does not slip out.
- Keep your dog inside, in a fenced yard or tied up far from the front door or mailbox.
- Keep front doors and fence gates closed.
- Keep your dog away from the screen door, even if it is locked.
- Please ensure you have your dog on leash and under control when out walking.
