Dogs hate mail carriers and delivery people right? Not so fast. A Facebook page is smashing that untrue narrative to smithereens by showing how mail carriers and doggos can be besties. The Facebook group UPS DOGS shows that dogs really are man’s best friend, even mailmen. On the page that has nearly 600,000 followers, it features photos and videos of UPS drivers and dogs being the best of friends.
SO MANY GOOD BOYS!!!
There’s even a UPS DOGS Instagram with nearly 45,000 followers that posts priceless photos of the uncommon bond between dogs and UPS drivers.
UPS DOGS was started by driver Sean McCarren, a 17-year mail delivery vet who has bonded with all kinds of dogs during his tenure. The page has gotten so popular that the page needs approximately 30 UPS driver moderators to handle all of the pics and comments.
“The appeal is that it’s all positive, not negative,” McCarren said. “There’s no views of what people think about this or that, just dogs and an occasional cat, donkey, turtle or bird.” That’s right, it’s not only dogs, there’s also an occasional non-canine making friends with UPS drivers. Even horses and elk. And a chicken.
Not one photo of a UPS driver’s brown pants ripped from being bitten in the ass by an overprotective dog.
I guess what I’m trying to say, is that if mailmen and dogs can change, and you can change, everybody can change!
