[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 4671744, member: 198"] My current route was my bid route a few years ago and most of the dogs I encounter were around then. They never bothered me and most would stay away from the truck. During the time I was not on the route various drivers would hand out dog treats to every single dog they would see and over time those dogs would expect that from every UPS truck that pulled up to the house. Many of those dogs get so excited they can’t control themselves and that’s how drivers get hurt. Now I can’t deliver some of my stops because of them or end up standing in my truck waiting for a customer that is already walking out to meet me because they know the deal. None of them are happy about their dogs being fed treats. The only time we should ever give a dog a treat is when they are questionable in their behavior. There is no need to throw one at every dog out of fear. ThT fear is messing things up for other drivers. [/QUOTE]
