His reaction is too adorable for words (Video)

If all you knew about dogs and postmen you learned from cartoons, you’d probably be under the false impression that they don’t get along in real life. But what if, instead of waiting by the door to growl whenever a letter gets posted through, or nipping at the postman’s hand whenever he attempts to do his job, dogs actually loved their post-giving friends? Moose, a Golden retriever pup that’s only just turned a year-and-half, patiently waits for his postman to arrive at his doorstep every single morning.

Like clockwork, Moose hangs out in his driveway at the same time every morning in anticipation of his postman-friend. He started this adorable morning routine a few weeks ago when a new postman was posted to his neighborhood. On the first morning, he just watched from the window. However, one day, he asked to be let out. Plopping himself down on the driveway, he waited with his tail wagging, until the postman approached him. Once he did, he gave the pup lots of pets and snuggles. The pair have since become the best of friends. Neither Moose’s nor the postman’s days are complete without their big bear hugs.

He waits on his family’s driveway each day to get a hug off his new friend

Moose’s owner Meghan Gruszynski said “I loved how much he loved our boy and loved how much Moose loved saying hi to him.” This new-found friendship is made even more wholesome by the fact the family recently found out their postman’s dog passed away, making his visits with Moose especially special. She hopes the tradition doesn’t end any time soon. “Hopefully it continues for many, many years!” She stated. “He’s our postman ’til he retires, so it should be fun watching their love.” Watch the video, maybe Moose can sense the loss the postman has experienced and is trying to comfort him. They just know a person’s true heart.
