Scheduled carrier pick-up for today and the USPS site asks if there is a dog on the premises.

Actually, that is a very good idea.

Yep. Just as long as they don't ask any of the boardies about multiple cats.

Yea, it is a good idea. It isn't fair for unsuspecting delivery people to get surprised by animals who think they are doing their job.
A guy I know was once a driver for either UPS or Fedex (he left ages ago). But, when he was fairly new there he made a residential delivery. He rang the bell and around from he back of the house came not one, but 11 in total chihuahuas. Several of them attacked at once and one got a pretty good chunk out of his hand as he fled from the property. The lady answered and never even apologized, she actually said "did the little one get you?". There was no sign, nothing. He refused to deliver there again.
To this day he does not like chihuahuas, which is how this came up because I am a chihuahua lady. I always had at least one LOL, but I do understand why he doesn't like them after that encounter. I do know they are territorial to say the least and can get angry easily. It's unfortunate how irresponsible and thoughtless some owners can be.

I started seeing it on the app last week. I scheduled a pickup online last night & didn't see it. Weird - must be hit or miss.

My poor delivery guys knock and immediately back down the porch. They know my dog is a bit crazy but they also know I keep her contained in the house and I go out to meet them. She looks all cute and adorable but sounds as mean as a pit bull when you hear her barking so no one stays on the porch after they knock lol.
