UPS Dogs: Highlights & the Backstory

UPS drivers deliver packages all day long. During each day, drivers encounter many dogs, most friendly and some not so nice. When time permits, drivers snap a photo and send it in to UPS Dogs. Our followers love the photos and the stories told as we share our love of these special relationships with these lovable creatures.

Since its inception in 2013, UPS Dogs has grown in popularity and we are receiving more and more of your wonderful photos capturing our furry friends. UPS Dogs strives to strike the right balance between posting your entertaining photos and not overwhelming social media feeds. Each day, we look for the best photos to post and try our best to include your submissions on either Facebook or Instagram.

Submissions should be emailed to: upsdogs@gmail.com. Please be sure to include a brief caption, the dog’s name, and your name and location. We always love to give credit to our army of photographers and canine friends.

The site is run by UPS drivers and is not a UPS Corporate-sponsored site.
