I don't have all the facts, but I bet he will be slapped with jail time and/or a fine.
True he should have spoken with his supe(but I've actually heard of some having supervisors who tell them to perform the job's requirements or find another job). I don't know about jail time though since the dog was loose. They may put him on leave, desk work, give him a different route(worst possible option), or something like that. In my experience most don't lose their jobs when they shout "self defense" and the animal actually wasn't adequately contained. There really is no type of compensation for the owners but hopefully the mail company will make an attempt to somehow rectify the situation.
