A doorbell cam captured the wholesome moment an Amazon delivery driver wary of a dog sitting on the porch overcame his fear and approached the pooch for a cute conversation. In the sweet video, captured in Kansas City, Missouri, the driver, Eric, is seen approaching eight-year-old Grace, a rescued pitbull mix, who was waiting on her porch. Initially apprehensive over the dog, Eric says, "Hi, pretty," and then asks, "Are you friendly?" He then proclaims, "I feel like you're not…" before slowly approaching the house. As he does so, Eric notice Grace is, in fact, more than happy to make friends with him, so he introduces himself with "Hi, I'm Eric" before placing the package down and letting a waggy tailed Grace say hello. Grace's owner Ashley Gore, 38, was in the back yard when the moment took place and later discovered the wholesome video on her Ring camera, which she shared with friends and family on social media.

what would have been perfect is if the homeowner showed respect for the people who have a job to do and put the dog away. they knew they were getting a package. and it doesn't matter what you say about your dog, let people do their work without having to wonder and risk. also, it's just rude to film someone without permission.

I don't like hearing "Have a wonderful day." because now-a-days everyone retorts the same sheep statement. Something more creative would be better. I've replied back, "Naaah, I've had 130 wonderful days in a row, it's time for a different kind of day." People often don't know how to react to that. It breaks their programming. However, good vibrational energy towards dogs will get good results.

Um,. a wagging tail is not always done in a friendly way.

The dog the owner says, "oh he just barks and he never bites" and took a chunk out of my installers leg. If you have never had to do what that driver is doing, don't judge. He did the right thing and luckily the dog WAS a marshmallow and didn't come charging off the porch at him.

The driver was under no obligation to make friends with the dog. He would have been within his rights to just walk up to the porch and drop off the package. If the dog felt ill at ease or felt threatened by the driver for not first making friendly contact and then attacked or threatened the driver, that would have totally been the owners fault. Actually the driver would have been within his rights to just leave the package on the lawn and leave, because he has better things to do, and too many irresponsible dog owners think it's somehow other people's responsibility to tip toe carefully around their dog in public or right of way areas, and take no accountability if the dog attacks something without provocation. It's always someone else's fault

@alexmckee4683 7 ай бұрын

While you are right Bashar the driver behaved sensibly. We all live in this world together and while we are under no obligation to put up with other people's bad choices we can ourselves choose pro-social behaviour and make the world a better place. That's what this driver did, he engaged sensibly with the dog and did his job with grace.

It is only my opinion, based on things I have seen for years, that suggest to have supervision of a pet outside, in a fenced area and that the dog be trained. Some dogs, not all nor this dog, view a fence or a chained area as their territory. And many dogs will guard their territory. This encounter could not have been better. The dog was friendly and the Amazon delievery man knew how to create and deal with a dog. I only am sharing my opinions based on my dogs and my experiences. I hope that expains things.

Mine mostly bark but that's to let the person know their there if they show aggression is a please get out of my driveway RIGHT NOW my dogs never show aggression towards strangers only twice and mom thinks it was same guy both times that she ever showed aggression towards usually she only barked had neck hair stand up tail always wags sometimes showed teeth when she growled but she stayed near not close to touch but to let know presence and those signs were just warnings she showed all the signs but instead of staying near the guy mom said she was behind and to the side of her the whole time our dogs are trained not to bite so if they bite you you are either lying about why you are here or you did something to them you shouldn't have we don't allow dogs who would tend to bite someone for no reason run free as there are kids in this neighborhood and anyone in this neighborhood who knows our dogs could tell you that no they don't bite mostly they won't let ppl touch them its a rare occasion when they do

By offering his hand for the dog to catch his scent, this man showed he grew up with dogs, so he knew they are calmed by a soothing spoken voice, while he also knew that offering one's hand for the scent test is what dogs prefer over any attempt by a stranger to pet them, ESPECIALLY on the head, which many dogs will not tolerate from anyone except their pet human.
