A rural route mail carrier in Pennsylvania was trapped inside her car for almost two hours as dogs attacked her tires, flattening three of them.

The dogs not only attacked the mail Jeep but also the police car that responded to help.

Robin Barton was delivering a package to a Hanover home last week when she found herself face to face with a Rottweiler and Pit Bull. Barton gave the dogs a taste of pepper spray, but the animals would not back off.

Instead, they started biting the tires of her Jeep. The police came, and the dogs started to chew on the tires of the police car. As officers got ready to tranquilize the dogs, the owner came home and the dogs calmed down.

The owner thinks the dogs attacked the tires because she recently bought chew toys that look like a tire. She bought the mail carrier three new tires, and the carrier is back on her route.

You hit the nail on the head. I agree with every word....this day and time we have to have protection because of the useless crackheads that had rather kill and steal than work to supply their habbits. I have a pit and doberman we have breakins all around my neighborhood EXCEPT my house and my neighbor's house and my neighbor has thanked me often for having the dogs.
