Every day, our Posties deliver to millions of homes across Australia —and too often, they’re met with aggressive dogs at the gate.

More than 1,150 dog-related incidents have been reported in just six months. So we’re stepping up safety.

By the end of July, every Postie will carry non-harmful citronella spray. It’s a last-resort deterrent and proved 80% effective in in preventing dog attacks in our Safety trial.

If you’re a dog owner, help protect your local Postie by following our three steps to PAWS for delivery:
🐾 Sit your dog in a safe spot before the Postie arrives
🐾 Stay with them or keep them behind a barrier
🐾 Secure them until the delivery is done
