Teehehehe Jill, I guess most of them don’t. Too close to the house for comfort. Besides I think many mailmen are scared of dogs, rightfully so I might add and the dogs sense this. Anyway I guess its ok for pupsters to not like mailmen. Just one of those things. I know my dogs don’t like them at all. Gwen 10m

Uh…sure would like to what? Bark at postal carriers, or see in color? If you don’t mind appearing foolish and scary, you can easily accomplish the former. The latter may require surgical intervention, though….. :>) Jef.

I think it’s just a territorial/defense thing. Someone coming to your house and touching stuff on your property just doesn’t seem to be "cool" for dogs. Either they think that someone is trespassing or they’re "guarding" you – I tend to think that they’re being protective. My parents’ Springer Spaniel would be in the yard when the mail guy came (or the meter reader, or anyone) and she’d go nuts. But if my mom or dad were out there and they spoke to the person, she’d quiet down and go do something else.j LizB

Wonderful, start cataloging those photos. You will be so happy you did! > also I have found that at 7 weeks old she already doesn’t like the mail > man….around here the mail man walks up to your door to give you the mail > and she goes hysterical yelping like she’s scared of him…….
This is not such good sign. You need to get that pup out and about to Pets Mart, dog parks and places where dogs are allowed such as many Home Depots. Also ask mailman if he would mind giving pupster treats when he arrives so she will associate him with good things. EARLY socialization is one the biggest keys to happy dogs!:) Give that new furkid a big hugh hug for me. I just love pups and I am so jealous with envy you get to smell "puppy breath"! Oh to die for! I wish someone would bottle that smell! Gwen 10m

Natocatgirl, listen to Gwen. Before I left Kansas City in 99 to live here, I had Mitzi professionally photographed. The sitting was only $50. I got to keep all the prints and there were a ton. My dog is older of course, but now should anything ever happen to her, I’ll always have her picture. It is priceless. A friend of mine at my old vet clinic never got around to doing this and when her little terrier died, she never got over it. Find some time to take photos. You’ll be so glad you did.

When I lived in Kansas City Mitzi always, I mean always had some thing about the mail carrier.

I to this day, do not understand why she barks at postal carriers. She doesn’t here because my box is outside now away from my cabin. I understand dogs can see in colors. Maybe it’s the uniform.

Teehehehe Jill, I guess most of them don’t. Too close to the house for comfort. Besides I think many mailmen are scared of dogs, rightfully so I might add and the dogs sense this. Anyway I guess its ok for pupsters to not like mailmen. Just one of those things. I know my dogs don’t like them at all. Gwen 10m
