Hidden camera catches what mailman does to German shepherd – now clip is spreading like wildfire online

German shepherds so often get a bad rep. Many people see them as a dangerous and aggressive breed, but it’s always important to remember that what matters most is how a dog is raised by its owner.

The video in this article, which has over 6 million views on Facebook, should remind people to never judge a book by its cover.

Michael Collins lives with his dog Kyza, a German shepherd. According to Michael, Kyza is often misunderstood by strangers, with many people wary of him being aggressive because of his size. In actual fact, Kyza rarely even barks at strangers. It’s Michael’s belief that a dog’s upbringing has far more impact with regards to its behaviour, than its breed does.

Sadly, there are others who don’t see it like that. So, when neighbourhood mailman Steve comes to deliver mail each day, he could be forgiven for being hesitant to approach the property when Kyza is roaming free in the front-yard. This is especially true since mail men and dogs can sometimes be at odds with each other.

What Michael saw through his window one day would lead to him pulling out his camera – for an entirely different reason.

It’s important to remember that Steve doesn’t have any special affinity towards Kyza – he’s just one more dog the mailman passes on his delivery round.

But one day, Steve rode by, left the post in the mailbox and then went to give the German shepherd a cuddle. Seconds later, Kyza had stood up at the fence, so he could be fussed and petted.

And, apparently, it wasn’t just a one-time thing. Every day now when Steve goes past, he stops to see his friend.

“Everyday whether or not we have mail this mail man always stops to see my dog who is only 9 months old,” Michael wrote on his Facebook.

“This guy here always makes an effort to get off his bike to give him a hug and a pat! I’m not sure who to tag on Facebook for him to see this! But thanks man keep up the good job and you’ve definitely got a friend waiting for ya!!”

Thankfully, Michael decided to film one such encounter. This way, the whole world can have a chance to see another side to German shepherds.

As you can see in this tear-jerking clip, Kyza is very happy to see his good friend, the mailman, every day.

A dog is only as good as its owner. It’s clear to see here that Kyza is thriving in Michael’s home.

Personally, I’m just glad the mailman was kind to a misunderstood dog who only wanted someone to fuss him. Please share if you felt touched by this story!

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

Stop holding the (2018) Yulin dog meat & lychee festival in Yulin, (Guangxi) China.

This "festival" is an event that starts on June 21st of every year during the summer solstice and it lasts for 10 long horrifying days in which 10,000–15,000 dogs (as well as cats) are tortured and then consumed. However, it is estimated 25 million dogs are stolen, sold, bought, and eaten every year with the illegal dog and cat meat trade. A larger percentage of these dogs consist of pets stolen right from their loving families. The rest of the dogs are captured strays from the streets and some raised in dog farms. After these animals are stolen, bought, or captured they are then transported for days without any food or water, crammed in tiny cages together so tightly that they are unable to even move. At the yulin festival, throughout those days, these animals will be hung, burned, skinned, boiled, torched, dismembered, electrocuted and beaten...ALIVE..out in the streets for public view. But If that isn't bad enough, they intentionally torture these animals in f...

Protect Our Waters: Say No To Plastic Waste!

Plastic garbage. It’s something we all see everyday. Don’t be fooled to think that these plastics are merely an eyesore. We’ve become so accustomed to using plastic utensils, straws, water bottles and bags that it’s easy to forget the impact this has on our environment and climate. My name is Tyler and I’m in my fourth year of university in Canada, where I’m earning a degree in Environmental Studies. I'm also an environmental activist. Even for someone like me, it’s hard to avoid using plastic at places like fast food restaurant, and that needs to change. I’ve started this movement to highlight calls to action happening around the world, and to grow a community of everyday citizens pressing governments and companies to get serious about cleaning up our rivers, lakes and oceans . When we work together, and keep the pressure on, we really can make an impact. I know this firsthand, after collaborating with activists across Canada to successfully urge th...
