Unfortunately, a sad doggie story. Postal worker v. 10 pound Yorkie.

The postal worker was out of line injuring the dog. On his defence, though, and not knowing the character of the dog, I will say that generally the Yorkie owners I've seen (note: generally, so if you're a Yorkie owner who doesn't fit this profile, I do not mean you) do NOT control their dogs. They go around barking and howling and snapping and chasing which would not be tolerated in bigger dogs.

I don't know in this case so have no opinion on this particular case.

This indeed is a sad story. Postal carriers are required to carry mace for dog protection. A rock was unnecessary.
But on the other side, the dog should have been on a leash or in a fenced area. You do not let your dog run the neighborhood. For your protection and the dog.
