An Amazon customer was in stitches after seeing a hilarious 'proof of delivery' photo left by the delivery driver.
The shopper had missed their delivery so was confused to see the order status change from 'out for delivery' to 'delivered' while he was out of the house. But when he checked the order history for more information he was delighted to find that his parcel had been 'Delivered to a family member direct', reported The Mirror.
The message had a photo attached showing his dog standing alongside his online orders as proof of postage. The border collie type dog looked pleased with himself as he stared into the camera.

The shopper posted the image to Reddit. When describing his dog's personality. the owner said: "He is so friendly he might just let a robber in and show him where all the valuables are."
One user said: "I hope you tipped him... in pets." While another user added: "I'd really love to know how they got the dog to sign for the delivery," and a third user said: "I’m imagining the Amazon driver pulling out one of those ink pads and the dog signing the paper with his paw print."
It comes after Paul Conway, 61, bought some sunglasses online but was beaten to the door by his Labrador, Mazie, when the courier arrived. The dog was captured in the proof of delivery photo, peeking her head out the door and looking up at the parcel.
The married dad-of-one said: "It looks as though they are delivering it to my dog. I found it quite funny as all you can see is the dog looking up at the package in courier’s hand." Paul, who lives with his wife Jane, welcomed eight-year-old Mazie in to their home when she was just a tiny puppy.
Explaining how she isn't quite skilled enough to unlock the door herself, Paul added: "The courier knocked on the door and my wife opened it to receive the package. But she was behind the door still so they just took a photo of our dog."
