UPS Driver Jumped into Action to Corral an Escaped Dog

A UPS driver jumped into action to corral an escaped dog. The woman did not hesitate in the slightest after she witnessed the dog walk out the front door. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see the lengths this delivery driver went to bring the animal back to its home.

Kindness is one thing we can never have too much of in this world. Sadly, instead of too much, it often feels we have entirely too little of it. People have the surprising ability to inflict immense pain and suffering on one another. Everywhere you look – the news, social media, the office, the neighborhood – we see examples of being needlessly cruel to each other.

While this world is fallen and lost and can never be restored due to the destruction sin has brought upon it, we can all do things to make it a little better. Sure, it set the world on fire, bringing about swift, immediate change, but a little act of kindness here and there could brighten and improve someone's world.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a young woman, a UPS delivery driver, was dropping off packages. She was just about done with that particular stop when she rang the doorbell, and a dog exited the house, running off down the street. Not exactly who or what she expected to answer the doorbell.

However, instead of going on her way, moving onto the next stop, she went out of her way to bring the dog back to the house from which it had just escaped. She tried to coax the dog back, but when that didn’t work, she took more drastic measures. She grabbed a bag of doggy treats to help guide the dog back into the house.

The woman did not have to do that. It wasn’t her job to worry about the dog, but she showed some kindness because she obviously knew how she would have felt if it were her dog that had turned up missing.  

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.”
