People are in stitches after seeing a video of a UPS man racing after a dog stole the item he just delivered.

UPS drivers may make far more than most social media users assume, but that doesn’t mean their work is simple, especially if you have a wayward dog on the loose who enjoys a delivery or two. Prepare to be even more respectful to your delivery driver than you already are.

Tre Welch, also known as @juicecupbox and @juicecupboxx on TikTok, posted a video of himself racing after a dog that had gotten its teeth on one of his delivery parcels on the site on Wednesday, December 6.

Welch can be seen chatting with the dog in the footage, telling it, “I didn’t bring it to you. Please return the package.”

He then attempts to call the dog back, telling it that if it runs away with it, the client would complain he ‘didn’t deliver’.

Despite being urged to ‘give’ the box and ‘drop it,’ the dog, predictably, does neither.

As every dog owner knows, such a demand just makes it more tempting to disobey, so the dog merely sits down, stares up angrily at Welch, and then makes a dash for it again, slinking back across the yard.

Thankfully, another UPS worker apprehends the dog and distracts it with a short stroke on the head before carefully extracting the item from its jaws and returning it to Welch.

Welch then walks the gift back to the house where it belongs, but the dog chases him.

The delivery man places it inside the porch door, reprimanding the dog, “You’re too hyper.”

Isn’t it all in a day’s work?

The video has already gone viral, with over 500,000 views and people laughing in the comments over the cheeky hound’s behavior.

According to one TikTok user, “judging from the yard, he’s a collector of things.”

“Dogs can sense it.” He said this dude doesn’t like dogs, so let me go to the one who does,” someone else remarked.

“That dog definitely knows what Drop It means,” wrote a third. “the small No, I don’t think so” stance.”

And a final decision was made: “He didn’t mean any harm; his ears were down; he said, Just let’s make him work a little more today.”
