I love how the day after I say I have nothing to talk about, I think of something to talk about...that's how it always is, isn't it? Haha.
I was reminded of a cute story because yesterday I received something I had ordered and it was delivered by UPS while I wasn't at home. On top of the box was a little dog biscuit. No, it didn't come with my package; the UPS man left it for Sadie. There is a certain driver who knows where all the dogs live in the neighborhood, and if he delivers a package, he also delivers a treat for the pup! How cute is that?
But that's not all! If he sees you walking your dog, he will stop his truck to give out a treat! One day Sadie and I were walking down the street (and it was dark out already). We saw the UPS truck driving toward us and it just stops and the driver threw a treat in our direction. Because it was dark, I couldn't see where the treat landed, so I told Sadie to find it! And she did haha. It was adorable.
Sadie definitely knows the UPS truck means treat time now, and gets super excited every time she sees it driving by! Does your UPS/FedEx/Mailman do something similar? I think it's great that he remembers all the dogs and specifically brings treats for them. My other aunt (who I housesit for often) has had the same experience with UPS. I love it!
That is awesome!! Gibson just thinks the mail man and ups man are the devils :)
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest thing ever. Our mail man torments Whiskey with the mail through the slot. My neighbors are nice though, some of them will be working outside and she'll say "hello" then they have to give her a cookie. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great UPS driver!! He knows how to make the dogs look for him and like him!! Our FedEx driver used to do that where we used to live. My paycheck came FedEx (now I have it direct deposit) and the driver would always give Koda a cookie. Koda got to learn the sound of the truck and would be waiting by the door even before the guy came to it. Here's the sad part. Whenever the door bell rings, he thinks it is a treat! So even now when the doorbell rings, he goes running to the door in anticipation. So after I take care of whoever is at the door, silly me, I have to go and get him a treat and make a big production of it "Look what they brought you". Creatures of habit these corgis are (or like someone said one time, corgis never forget a food source)
ReplyDeletecute!
betty
That is one smart UPS man :-)
ReplyDeletevery cute story :-)
That's awesome! He sure knows how to make the pups <3 him (and not bark/bite him)!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! The delivery drivers around here never do any of that stuff for Stanley!
ReplyDeleteHow cool! No one here is nice enough to do that! Maybe I should so that....
ReplyDeleteawww that is so cute!!
ReplyDeletenoo!!! hahah oh my goodness if my UPS guy did that I'd call UPS and ask them to give him a raise. :) that is sooooo awesome!
ReplyDeleteHehehe so cool, right?? We had a different driver for awhile, but so happy this guy is back in the neighborhood! I know Sadie is happy, too!
ReplyDeleteMy UPS is always delivered at work, since I'm always there. I have a different UPS story- I always say that it is "shorts season" when the UPS man starts wearing shorts. Is it me or are all UPS men hunks? XO, Cheryl
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny you mention that because I totally think UPS guys are hot!! There's just something about them lol.
