Related: About this forumThe "UPS Dogs" Facebook page
If youre 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 owners 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. Its a good example of the relationships our employees build with their customers, two- or four-legged, a UPS spokesperson told Buzzfeed News.

Another driver took over the route and mentioned that he came back to the truck and there was a dog onboard waiting for him. Dave ruined a few dogs before he took a long haul route.
