The attack and dog bite occurred Wednesday afternoon as the mail carrierwas making deliveries in the Shenendoah area of Miami.

Miami Fire Rescue reported that the dog leaped at the woman in front of a house. The mailwoman was able to push the dog away from her face, but it lunged at her and bit her in the chest area and also bit her on the hand.

Animal control officers took the dog away Wednesday evening.
