The story of a suburban postal worker and his unlikely friendship with a dog

[@chrismorgan9153]

Frannie and Postman Dan are the best free advertising the USPS could ever hope for.

[@peggybarney1732]

That's right!!!

[@saskiavisser1279]

Agree...

[@Mariah.B11]

@saskiavisser1279 Absolutely 💯 Plus their bond is an ad for the benefits of having fur bubbas in our lives.. as they ignite so much joy, connection, healthy vibes.

[@kevinhawley962]

100% facts xD too expensive and slow

[@Cuban20]

Lol did you see how sweet that Mail truck was they gave Frankie? She really is a joy

[@mc4dj1304]

The postman’s wife showing up to “confront” Frannie as the other woman was hilarious

[@aftersexhighfives]

These ppl all seem cut from the same cloth. Frannie seems to know who's good ppl for her humans. The ladies seem similar in their aestetic. I hope they go get their nails done together, all three ladies 😂. I'm certain pup manicures exist. 😂😂😂

[@firetrucksrule07]

I laughed at that lol

[@breadandcircus1]

Postman Dan and little Frannie feel the purest love for each other. God bless them

[@pacluv]

As a postal worker, I approve of this story. So nice to see at least one doggie likes the mailman.

[@taraninanigui4441]

😂 right!!

[@taraninanigui4441]

I’m like what is it about dogs not warming up to postal workers! 😂 only if we spoke canine we would know the reason behind this.

[@janelradunz6995]

Thank you for doing this. I was one of those people going through chemo and radiation. Watching these 2 everyday gave me joy and hope to get through. And I did at last check on clear. Thank you.

My 16 year old Chihuahua, Chloe passed away in January. I miss her terribly. But watching Frannie run to Dan every day still brings a smile to my face! She's such a happy girl!!!

[@m.w.3266]

Das tut mir so leid für Sie,das Sie Chloe verloren haben.Sie ist jetzt sicher mit unseren gestorbenen geliebten Katzen zusammen.🌈Uns hat es geholfen wieder ein Kätzchen zu adoptieren.Vielleicht würden Ihnen das auch helfen wenn Sie ein neues Hündchen hätten.❤️

[@MichelleAngello-sm7cy]

I'm so sorry 😞 you lost your Chloe....They are here for such a short time before returning back to God....Great sadness is what we go through for the price of Great love.....I'm so very sorry, she will wait for your time to come when you both will never be parted again at the 🌈 Bridge......🙏❣️❣️

[@alycewich4472]

@@lorieaster1108 Years ago I had a papillon that loved the Trash man! We had a very long curved dirt driveway, but a soon as Sparky heard the truck, he was all over excited to go and see his trash man! It's been so long ago that I cannot remember the man's name, but he would greet any dog that wanted to say hi, which I thought was a great idea!

[@karenrussell2091]

My deepest sympathy in the loss of your little Chloe.🙏😿

Growing up with Postman walking the streets with mail, what was their biggest threat? DOGS, DOGS, DOGS! Back in the day, a lot of folks did not keep their dogs tied up, behind the fence, or in the house, protecting our Postmen and Women! Great Video also for the Good that the Post Office Still Does TODAY! We need more of this sweet, kind, and loving video's!

You won't see a channel that houses so many kind people as this one. Everyone is respectful of each other and shares the love, and it's all because Lisa brought home a tiny furry bundle of love. We all love to watch Postman Dan arrive to deliver mail each day and for Frannie to run as quickly as her little legs will allow to give him kisses. ❤
