Turns Out, UPS Drivers Have A Facebook Group About Dogs They Meet On Their Routes, And It Will Make Your Day
If you’re a postal worker, the best part of your day is probably your customers’ dogs. You look forward to their wagging tales and warm greetings whenever you pull up in their owner’s driveway, and you always have a treat ready for them. UPS driver Sean McCarren knows this all too well, and has created the best Facebook group ever to pay tribute to the furry friends that make daily routes a heck of a lot happier.
UPS Dogs is a nation-wide network of canine-loving ‘big brown truck’ drivers who post pictures of the pups they become acquainted with along their delivery schedule. Some of them have known their clients’ dogs for years, and have worked out complex treat-exchange systems with them. The group has been going strong for 5 years now, and is still moderated by McCarren himself. “It’s a good example of the relationships our employees build with their customers, two- or four-legged,” a UPS spokesperson told Buzzfeed News.
Scroll down to see a few ‘UPS Dogs’ that we wish we could package up and deliver to our doorstep, and be sure to follow the official page using the link below!

“It’s a good example of the relationships our employees build with their customers, two- or four-legged”
“I know my customers pretty well, but I know their dogs even better,” said employee Jeff Skender
“This is one of the very best parts of my job… to be greeted so happily by unconditional love”
Don’t worry – cats get lots of UPS love, too
These pups are so precious, we want to box them up and have them delivered to our doorstep

The blind dog alone was enough to melt my heart. And those eyes and faces! So, so cute!!! Thank you for being such an important part of the community and having a big heart to feed them treats.

Some of the delivery drivers around here have beepers on their trucks that chirp when the truck is in Park, presumably so that blind pedestrians wouldn't stroll into them if they are parked in an unexpected place (?). I'm sure the same thing lets all the blind dogs know right where to find the Man in Brown.

The photo with the dog in rain is how "the notebook" movie should have been made. :D

Many years ago I had a very loving Golden Retriever. And a UPS driver that lived 4 doors down from me. I used to always joke with him that I was going to have to take him to court to set up legal shared custody of my Snoopy. She would saunter over to his house when he got home from work and "visit" him, returning "home" only after he got ready for bed. Then, when the weekend rolled around my Snoopy would disappear to his house on Friday nights and didn't come home until late Sunday evening. That same pattern was repeated week after week for the rest of Snoopy's life. The UPS man covered all of her needs while she was "visiting" him and even offered to cover half of Snoopy's medical expenses. When she died, he not only paid almost half of her funeral expenses but he gifted her a beautiful headstone. Even though it's been years since she died, I've noticed that he still visits her grave at least once a year. I'll never forget his kindness and love for Snoopy.

Most of the drivers carry treats with them, it's better to make friends with their four-legged clients than it is to make enemies!

oh lord! I was bawling my eyes out by the third picture. How awesome is it that they keep treats for the dogs? Those pics of the whole gang of dogs at the truck were just too awesome. A beautiful thing to see. This may be the best post I've seen on this site. Cheers gentlemen! Touching to see little acts of kindness and beauty!
