These Photos of UPS Drivers With Dogs Will Make Your Day

Sean McCarren, 44, is a UPS driver based in Martinsburg, West Virginia. Also known as "Dawgzilla," he runs a popular Facebook page and Instagram account that has one simple mission: to share photos of UPS drivers and the dogs they meet on their routes.

This guy knows I bring treats everyday. In my truck before I get out of my seat. Thanks Travis

Best Life caught up with McCarren while he was out delivering Christmas gifts recently, and he said that he started both accounts in 2013 purely because he'd "seen a bunch of dogs on route all the time and took a bunch of pictures of them."

"At one point, I had photos of about 40 or 50 dogs on my phone, so I created a page for them," he said.

I'm John, a driver from Glasgow, Scotland. Here is wee Charlie, a Blue Staffy who belongs to one of my daily customers. He is so friendly and always happy to see me. He is such a cool dog and has chewed the end of day paperwork more times than I can remember. Its always great to see him 😀

I wanted to share a picture of Ranger. If he is out for a walk with his owners and I drive by, I have to pull over so he can say hi. If he is walking and sees my truck parked on the side of the road or in front of a business, he cries and insists on coming to my truck and waiting to see me. The cool thing is that I have never given him a treat (I quit carrying them a few years back because it became a problem.) so he truly just likes to visit. I was hoping to get a picture of him sitting next to me nicely but he wouldn't quit licking me so this is the picture that I got. Thank you Kathy

"Every once in a while, somebody will post a cat," he said. "Breaks thing up a little bit."

Our dog Jovi loves to see our UPS driver in Centerville Ohio! She has welcomed him for about 10 years and is the highlight of her day when he comes.

As for the success of UPS Dogs, McCarren thinks it's simple: It's a source of pawsitivity.
