UPS Dogs is a group on Facebook that documents the adventures of UPS drivers with dogs they meet on the road.
Many delivery workers love seeing the wagging tails and warm greetings of dogs when they pull over at a driveway.
These UPS drivers always have a treat for them and made the Facebook group to share their joy with other people too.
One of the workers at UPS, Sean McCarren who opened up the group as a tribute to their amazing furry friends, says they’re making their shifts happier.
UPS Dogs- the Best Facebook Group or What?
UPS Dogs is a nation-wide network of dog-loving UPS drivers who share images of dogs they meet along their daily delivery schedules.
Some of these dogs have been on their routes for years and some are new. The group has been active for 5 years now and McCarren is proud to be the admin.
A UPS spokesperson said that this group is the ideal example of how their workers build strong relationships with their customers, regardless of whether they have two or four legs.
How Did McCarren Come Up with the Idea for such a Group?
The group, UPS Dogs, which went viral two years ago, features adorable dog and sometimes cat photos.
McCarren was inspired after he realized that he had between 50 to 60 dog photos in his phone.
At first, he shared the images on his Facebook page and everyone was amazed by it. So, he decided to turn it into a bigger thing.
Today, the page has more than 1.5 followers. They’ve also opened up an Instagram page which is updated regularly.
He stated that dogs are crucial to families and many people consider them their son or daughter so they try to be good to them and give them treats.
In the group, there are around 30 UPS drivers that post regularly.
McCarren has people helping him keep up with the pages and the numerous submissions because they’re demanding and are like a full-time job.
They have scheduled posts every two hours or so. This is very helpful as he doesn’t have to be on his phone while driving and working.
The drivers have boxes of treats in their trucks. McCarren, speaking about the group’s popularity, said that ‘it’s pure because who doesn’t love dogs?’
When asked about a favorite dog from the group, McCarren said he doesn’t have one because he thinks they’re all awesome!
