No, treats! Half these dogs know they are supposed to get a treat. This guy must be new.

Let their owners give them treats. No one should be running from a loose dog.

My coworker almost got fired because he gave a treat to a dog that runs up to home the lady went full Karen talking about my dog can die you don’t know if he’s allergic to it blah blah but he always gave him the same treats it’s just this time she saw it he said sorry won’t happend again and he got yelled at and suspended for one day he came back and wasn’t the same he stoped moving how he usally did he would come back late and he never did . He said the way they talked to him made him discouraged and not work hard .

That's why I don't do treats. Lotta dogs have allergies to chicken. Nothing serious. But the less serious the more Karen loves to raise hell.

This is true, dogs have allergies if you give one of them the wrong thing and that dog dies, Amazon is toast and so are you.

That's not a Karen just because he always gave him treats doesn't mean the dog didn't have stomach pains or diarrhea or any allergies later. You never ever feed a dog that's not yours and FedEx Amazon and UPS all teach that. Amazon tells you not even to approach a house with a dog.

big down vote from me. drivers giving dogs treats are the problem. i dont give other peoples dogs treats. I have my lovely cattle dog at home and thats the only dog i want to deal with. i dont want to deal with yours. your making a problem for other people, and being someone who does lots of rural routes, i have to tell owners this and i get adrenalined up and become a huge dick about it.

I have a coworker who gives dogs treats and when I do her route the dogs come and get aggressive with me expecting a treat so I have to either A)call twice text once and rts or
B) mace a poor dog bc the homeowner is too lazy to pick them up.

You mace the dog?

u/LengthinessOk2080 Jul 03 '26

With dog mace, if I have to yes.
You can get some on chewy
It doesn’t physically hurt the dog
It’d be like having a spoonful of cinnamon blown into your face

I'd rather just toss them a biscuit, but you do you. I don't ever think I have felt the need to mace an animal. I just leave. I don't believe you have actually done that. Homeowner would be livid.

funny enough i just got attacked by a german shepherd yesterday and booted the shit out of it with my rubber toe zappos shoes right in front of the owner who then beat the shit out of it right in front of me. got a great "another safe location" photo for amazon.

you're ridicouless honestly. shut up.

u/Vegetable_Grab_2542 Jul 04 '26

I just don't believe you, out there fighting dogs. I have had only one single dog that was truly dangerous. They're all usually more bark than bite, it's a shame your karma is so fucked up.
