Long gone are the days when dogs were every postman's worst nightmare. If 'UPS dogs' is anything to go by, it seems we have gone full circle and they are now best of friends! And it's not just dogs your friendly delivery guy encounters on his route.
There are alpacas, deer, geese, goats, sheep, chickens and, of course, cats too! What began as a simple Facebook page, set up by UPS driver Sean McCarren to celebrate the furry friends he and other drivers meet along the way, is now a phenomenon, with regular updates and hundreds of thousands of followers!
We here at Bored Panda have compiled a list of our favorite cute animals that UPS deliverers have snapped on their routes, scroll down below to check them out for yourself and don't forget to upvote your faves!

Well it was probably asking him if he can phone home.
Load More Replies...This adorable little guy looks like he could have been on the Muppet Show - I mean the alpaca, not the UPS guy!
Me too criminalgirl. You must not be so criminal if you have a kind heart, like it sounds you do! Big hugs!
Load More Replies...I like it how all the animals looked happy, curious, excited... The cat? Not impressed. -_-
She looks happy to me. The slightly closed eyes, her relaxed pose. You just gotta learn how to speak cat!
Load More Replies...Someone doesn't realise you were joking! Clearly the dog is terrifying...!!! I'll upvote you to counteract the odd down vote!
Load More Replies...Hi Ladies and Gentlemen~ I gave you an "Up" vote because you and I have similar thoughts and are on the same wave length 95 percent of the time. But, this time... I think the Eric, the guy with the ferrell cat might out do the dog who already loves him. Big winks and smiles. It is great to see you. :)
Load More Replies...Well, normally I don't really like seeing dogs in costumes but this ones just too good!
Me either. Dogs do not belong in clothes. Only tiny dogs that need the warmth in really cold weather. It looks cute, but I still do not like the fact he is in a costume..
Load More Replies...I am sure he is buzzing with those wheels in doggo heaven. RIP love.
I would like to believe he is running and all ailments are gone in heaven.
Load More Replies...Don't know why I post it under this picture. I could post it under almost any picture. But I love that so many dogs (and some other animals) are so happy to greet UPS (and other delivery services) drivers every time they are in the street or deliver something at their humans home! It is just so adorable! And it must really make the day of the driver too! Seeing at least 1 of his/her friends on his/her route! I know it would make me very happy!
All UPS people and all others who are kind to animals need to know that we love them and their kindness. THANK GOODNESS there are a abundances of them .This is so good to see . Pass it around we love them and thank them for the uplifting stories.
You took the time to show this animal love when you saw him. He will remember that when you get to heaven! What a wonderful person you are!
The border collie to goat ratio seems high. Does that mean these goats are so naughty they need constant supervision? :)
Maybe the deer was thanking the UPS guy for bringing him his salt lick?
Load More Replies...Oh dear a deer, how strange that he is licking that man! Why ever would you do that Dear? Tasty? Maybe!
Awww! I was am ex- UPS for 19 years in Stockholm in export, import dataregister, lastly at Revenue Management Department, now retired since 2013 because they source out to India. Just discovered this page! Lovely pictures you all made.
A good guard goose knows who's nice visitor and who's not! In ancient Rome, geese were used as dogs to alarm if someone tries to invade the city...
First time in my life I've seen evidence of a friendly goose. It's a very refreshing surprise. :)
You must give some awesome dog treats for these guys to want to hang with you!
That was a very caring thing to do Sir! You must really care about that dog.
Wow...Going out of his way to return a lost pet. <3 More concerned with the human aspect of the job than deadlines. What an amazing person.
Lovely story - though the dog sounds like he might be left for too long. Hope that isn't the case though.
Well she says she was in a training session so that's likely not an everyday thing
Load More Replies...Mom said veggies are good for health and you seem to be gaining weight my friend.
great danes are the most amazing dogs!!! I use to have one; I miss him very much - almost every day!!
OMG what an awesome dog! Good thing he likes you, or you'd be gone in one bite!
Such a beautiful face.. Like Bambi..I love their eyes, they are so soft..❤️❤️
Now, did she get a biscuit too? The ones we made friends with liked chocolate chip cookies!
Rottweilers are the most amazing dogs if you treat them right. So are sheep!
Okay Jake, you go first. Warm him up, then I'll come in and finish him off so we get those treats!
"Yes, hello. My name is Colossus, and this is my sister Babs. We wanted to come and visit with you!"
Nah, who could fault anyone, for giving free hugs. A hug cures a lot of things, and as I said...they are free, and don't cost anything! ❤️❤️❤️
Load More Replies...I would take this kind of job, any day! Look at that adorable dog!! Almost makes me cry!!!
Thank God for the little joys in life. Just when you need that pick-upme-up, He finds a way to make you smile.
I'd be trolling Amazon for all the things to order so the driver had to stop by at least every day. *sniff*
It's clearly the one on the right....the two on the left have white fur and the left one has black fur......it's ok it took me a second too obviously they are all excellent specimens of canine
Load More Replies...For this post, i see some people have pet goats, they must be very friendly :)
Bored Panda really needs to add a 'heart' button for those of us that get serious feels over some of these!
I am also a Lily though spelt differently and seriously agree with you! Truth right there <3
Load More Replies...You got time to play with my chicken and me today? Please, please, please?
"This is Chuck the Clucker. You can't touch him, but I wanted to show him to you."
Same! But this picture.. Look at him/her! Omg, I can't! And like I said: Just like you, I am a cat person! But this is so adorable!
Load More Replies...That has got to be the cutest thing ever! All the big boys get treats, so maybe if I wag my tail fast enough, it will lift me, just a wee bit! DId it work Heath? Can I has a treat, too??
Glad to see that their tails aren't docked, what a nice greeting!!
danes, rotties & dobies are my faves--shepards, too, but allergies can't handle the fur. gorgeous animals!
I used to have a neighbor who had an absolutely massive rottie. His name was Colossus, funnily enough. He was so well-trained. He saw me walking by with my dogs one day while he was out in the yard with his humans, and he wanted SO BADLY to come say hi, but he stopped at the edge of the grass and looked back at his humans for permission before getting any closer. <3 Such a sweet boy. I was sad when they moved because it meant I didn't get to see him anymore. And the people were very nice, too.
Load More Replies...OMG they have got to be the most gorgeous dogs ever.. Treats all around!!
Good thing they are friendly and don't look at you like you're a rump roast!
Hi there! I brought my whole family today, I hope it's okay? Do you have enough treats for ALL of us? Oh pleeezzee!!
Beautiful photo!! That UPS guy is certainly good looking.... and that expression of joy on his face while he’s hugging the dog makes him even more handsome.The dog’s gaze is super adorable too!
That is absolutely adorable!! Such a sweet face.. I mean the dog :D
Looks like they found lasting friends in each other. He'll really seal the deal with those treats I bet!
Thanks for the cuddle Mr UPS driver! It was extra special cause of Christmas, right??
I would giggle like a kid too if I got to pet a puppy while at work!!!!!!
My little dog does a great high five - my older one gets confused so gives me a high ten!
My friends dog gives a high five with one paw first, then a high five with the other paw, and then a high 10! So adorable! Dogs high 5's / high 10's are awesome :-)
Load More Replies...Alzwoofer, that comes with age. Just bring them the treats, they remember them at least!
There's a Dalmatian in my neighbourhood called Peter. He's really naughty. I always laugh when I hear his owner shout ''Peter, come here'' after he's run towards another dog in the park.
Load More Replies...Momma said 'Do not cross the road, so I have to wait. Pick up the pace guy, I'm hungry here!
"I...hate to do this, but...I really needed the snack today. I hope you won't hold it against us."
Don't be shy, come on in and get your treat! Does your friend want one too?
Wow, great names! Pawnee is a legend at blackjack and he thunders justice!
Wow, I bet he feels safe, with all of them in the truck with him! Gorgeous dogs!
Do they eat ticks? If so, I'm getting a pair o possums to keep my son from getting Lyme (I have it, it truly sucks)
Load More Replies...I've heard about these scams, he hits opposum,plays dead as driver gets out to check he jumps in and steals truck.
I doubt that us someone's pet either! Like to know how he persuaded that guy out of his truck!
He probably thinks you have a very short memory and you don't remember that he already got a treat lol.
Ha! Who says dogs are color blind? This guy knows brown when he sees it!!
Absolutely pawful fur day. Or should I say hairendous.
Load More Replies...My dog has terrible bed hair so tends to look like this first thing. Hate's being groomed too, just my luck!
Don't tell me you laughed at her bad hair day. Big mistake! They get very upset when you laugh at them!
A vicious small heist dog. It's either your pant legs or your melting heart.
Lucky guy to have the love of such a King like animal like that. You can tell, he has taught you well on how to play well with others!
You shall not pass. Wooha is that treat for us, see ya, do whatever you want.
Boy, do they have your number! That's a lot of treats. Hope you buy smaller cookies for them, or their waist line will start spreading!
This extremely strange dog breed is great - only downside is the ability, no, the desire, to eat everything!
No joke! When I lived out in the country, our neighbors briefly kept some goats in our pasture since it was empty. One of them tried to eat my tamagotchi! XD
Load More Replies...I love attacks like that! Friend's dog had puppies last year and they were so good at 'getting the human'.
She knows a sucker when she sees one! Why walk, when you can get a human to carry you!
I can my chickens “feather dogs”... the really act like low maintenance puppers!
I love that they haven't just given up on her. I would never give up on any of my dogs but it's a sad, sad thing that some people do. This is clearly a very special little and beautiful little girl.
I am the same way with my cats! I have given pills, liquids, eye drops, ear drops, subQ fluids, insulin shots and checked blood sugar levels. Our floors were carpeted in puppy pee pads for a year for a very elderly kitty who forgot her litter box manners. My current lap warmer(as I am writing this 😸) is a frail 21-year-old kitty with the strongest will to live that I have ever seen. I will never euthanize an animal solely for my own convenience, but will give that final comfort without hesitation when the quality of life is gone and won't come back. I always stay with them as the vet sends them to the meadow by the Rainbow Bridge to wait for me until my time comes. Since my first cat picked me as her human 32 years ago, I have never had a home without one. A home without a cat is a lonely place IMHO.
Load More Replies...Waitaminute.....is that a cat litter bucket? Pretty sure it's Tidy Cats.
It is. I reuse them for all kinds of things. They should decorate her bucket with something like the designer Duck Tape. Or paint it pretty.
Load More Replies...What a special mommy this little cutie has! Looks like she has a pretty special friend in the UPS man too!
I am sure they were planning a heist together, you hooman why you have to come back so early, our neighborhood cat was just about to show up and teach us to drive.
Cats know everything but these guys were tricked. The neighbourhood cat was never going to teach them how to drive! Cats don't give up power that easily.
Load More Replies...Good thing you came back early. Looks like you spoiled their lunch they were planning on! Those boxes were starting to make them drool!
"Where do you keep that bag full of treats? May we have the bag when it gets almost empty?"
Now that's a Good Dog! That package would never make it to a person in our house. My older dog would have it in bits in seconds and my younger one would still be trying to crawl out from underneath it as she's teeny-tiny.
Hats off to the driver for this one. It takes a lot of trust to let that dog take it the rest of the way!
So you basically drive around and pet dogs, while staying in shape due to walking and heavy lifting. I'm in the wrong profession.
It's great that farm animals who roam a bit more freely, tend to get along.
I'll give you these chickens for a biscuit, NO make that TWO biscuits.
That’s chickens for ya... mine sit at my porch yelling at me for table scraps
Where'd you hide it, where's it at? Come on, give it to me. Give it to me! Yum, yum, this is so fun!
Joe the dog said you got the good stuff, so moooove over, I'm coming in!
Pitties are so misunderstood...Every one I have ever seen just has the sweetest eyes... <3
Bless the family that took CJ, he deserves all, and everything that he can get! All animal abusers should be jailed, for life!! Parole!!
Would you look at that beautiful face. I would love that dog forever. I just love Pitties Especially white, and gray ones ❤️❤️❤️
Right behind you...what an absolutely adorable face!
Load More Replies...oh I understand you!! I would have been so scared too!!! but awwwwww =0)
So glad you won them over. Could have been real bad for you if they hadnt like the treats you carry!
He comes to the truck and *complains.* He's the grumpy old man kitty.
"You're always LATE! And my packages are always crumpled!"
Load More Replies...Looks like a vampire kitty - though clearly not as he's out in daylight.
Not looking very happy with showing his/her teeth. Nevertheless a very cute floofball!
Don't your teeth show when you talk? He's asking for a treat?
Load More Replies...My word! That pup is gonna be a big one when it grows into those paws!
Look at those ears? Just play along because really this isn't Grandma.
Yep. Also, they have striking similarity to Scooby-dooby-do!
Load More Replies...Oh my, they are so cute!! I would do the same! How can you resist these beautiful dogs?!
And why is he fat? Doesn't Mr. UPS man buy low-cal treats for those over weight cuties?
I think things like acorns or insects. Though they are on their own if they want bugs!! Ugh.
Load More Replies...Now you country drivers carry grain and corn for those feathered friends? You should get awards, I swear! I think more people need to hear what fantastic people you guys are!!!!
They are so beautiful and loving. What lucky animals to have such a friend as a UPS driver who cares.
Once the pups are off chewing on their treats, grandpa sticks around for 2 or 3 treats.
Load More Replies...You win this time. This is it, next time you're mine! I will beat the fur right off your behind!
Yep, I've been told the Blues are more chewy than other Staffies/Pitties. Our Blue has, so far, eaten part of my couch, parts of two chairs, the blinds on my back door, more remotes than I can count, and a hole in rear inside panel of my car. She was rescued by us at about a year old, and was definitely high in anxiety until she realized this was a forever situation. She's loads better now!
Good to hear, Amanda. Thank you for giving her a forever home. I adopted my little boy about 2 years ago.
Load More Replies...You can have my chewed up old toy and I'll have as many biscuits as possible, thanks!
Look at Mutt and Jeff! One ears up and one ears down, makes us both a ton of fun!
No, I will not step on those scales! No one in this store will see how much I weigh!
Blind animals as well as humans use their other senses when they lose their sight. He knew this UPS man could be trusted. Looks like hes found a long time friend!
Yes you can see that he is blind but he know a good guy when he sees him
Is he part bear or what! Shat a cutie! You better give him his treat real quick!
Aw, such a little pup! Surprised the claws are so long - they are so sharp on puppies!! I know from very recent experience.
For a man in a brown truck with a brown outfit! How cute! A beautiful brown puppy!
I think I'm in love with this little puppy! And I'm a cat person. So adorable!!!
Yes! I saw that too. Damn that sucks because those can really hurt!
Load More Replies...You better have stocked up before you left home! We've been waiting all day formyou!
Looks like the Good Boys on the Block are posing for their next album cover.
The one is the back is sitting so hard! “I deserve that treat. I’ve been practicing. What do you think? Am I...am I a good boy?!”
I got ya lady! My teeth are bigger than yours, so you still think you can win? Think again!
His eyes are just like let go of the great and no-one will get hurt
Now I know you guys need to buy low-cal treats for some of these dogs! Some of them are getting pretty junky!
My 2 dogs used to do that. They were Father/ Daughter. Sadly, he passed in 2015. Thank you for bringing back a memory.
Load More Replies...Beautiful dogs! Though they look rather like they're thinking 'I better get the biggest biscuit not the other one'!
I don't know what I like better, getting my head rubbed or the great tasting treat? Ahh, don't make me choose. I'll take both today!
So cute how the paws are set so primly together on the pupper on the left! 💘
Ha, ha! I hope you mean petted them instead - be a bit worried otherwise.
right? besides, what kind of pet would a horse want for a companion?!
Load More Replies...Apples and carrots are great snacks to keep you going on a long work day. They're also good treats to share with friends you meet on your route.
Now you can stalk up on carrots too! You guys need a half a truck for animal treats alone!
I love your dog-thought! And look at that goofy smile! So adorable!
Load More Replies...I'm at the head of the line fella, so you better start with me or your ankles are mine!
I would be so jealous! Does he send you the regulars too, every time he sees them again? I would not be able to get enough of those photo's!
Load More Replies...You can tell the middle dog is like "Mom I TOLD you there was a unifoorrrmmmmm!"
He had to, he didn't want you to think he was eating all those dog biscuits!
Dog treats are insurance, can this be written off or charged to UPS ? Did you see that all these dogs had rain coats on? Greatest parents of all time.
The coloring on this dog is beautiful. I know that tri coloring on a cat means it's female. I wonder if it's the same with dogs?
i know on calico cats it means they are female; not sure about other animals though
Load More Replies...Now there are seven of us, can you count that high? Maybe you can see double and we each get two!
Oh my. The treats are behind the seat and there are two very big digs between me and those treats! Whatever shall I do?
Mommy, he's here! Oh boy, oh Boy! He came with a treat for me and a package for You!
Those cinnamon colored eyes take my breath away! What a dreamy look on that lovely little face.
A warm hug to all UPS drivers. This has been the best thread in a long time
All the animals were so adorable and arghhhhhh! I'm so jealous, lucky UPS deliverers :)
I honestly don't know how these people can do their jobs. I would have a very hard time leaving the puppies and not just sit there all day hugging, smooching, petting, playing with them. Just dump a truck of puppies and kittens on me and I can die happy afterwards.
My UPS driver used to take time to play with my goats and chickens. No idea how he managed to stick to a schedule, but he sure enjoyed the route! ^_^
Load More Replies...Was this supposed to make me emotional? So much beauty and love in those faces. I feel so guilty for how humanity has treated animals.
Is common that ups guys have dog treats? Cause its a very good idea.
