Missing a parcel delivery is annoying - especially when you've been camped out at your front door for weeks waiting for it to arrive. But one dog owner got a good laugh after reviewing their 'proof of postage' status to see their "ferocious" pooch took in their delivery.
Sharing an adorable snap on Reddit, the owner said: "Delivery person made sure to include my dog in the proof of delivery picture - such ferocity." In the image, a white dog is seen barking at a delivery driver with a parcel at its feet.
Thankfully for the driver, the pooch is standing on the other side of a clear door unable to chase him down the driveway on his way back to his van. Commenting on the cute picture, one user said: "This is cracking me up. The longer I look at it, the funnier it gets."
Another user added: "Did they scare you at all? That welcome mat looks like it was torn apart by a ferocious beast."
A third user said: "Hehehe - look at the little teeth."
One more user added: "Your dog is like 'You can leave that package and your wallet too'."
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."
