It all began with a handwritten be aware left in Carol Jordan’s mailbox. She instructed CBS News her first thought upon seeing the cardboard from USPS was, “What did the boys do now?”
The 6-year-old “boys” are brothers, Bear and Bull. They had been adopted by Jordan from a high-kill shelter in North Carolina once they had been tiny pups.
Once she learn the brief message, Jordan realized the mail provider was not offended, however involved for the canine’ well being.
“Hey! I drove up to deliver a package and both of the dogs crawled in my truck” the message learn. “They got into my lunch and ate an egg and some carrots and pumpkin seeds. I don’t know if that will upset their tummies, just FYI!”

“We would never have known,” Jordan stated. “They always look guilty of something!”
Although happy the mail provider was keen to forgive and neglect, Jordan felt the canine must be held accountable for his or her transgression. She posted a snapshot of the be aware – together with a photograph of Bear and Bull trying fairly contrite – to Facebook with the caption, “Wall of shame #weoweyoulunch”.
To her amazement, the submit went viral, with likes, shares and feedback from canine lovers so far as Denmark, Australia and New Zealand.
“Most people thank us for making them laugh,” Jordan instructed CBS. “A lot of folks have made comments along the lines of ‘that’s like my dog’ or they tag someone whose dog would act like that.”
In an effort to clean issues over with the mail provider, Bear and Bull – with the assistance of their mother – bought a $20 Subway reward card and penned an apology be aware which they delivered to the Post Office.
“Sorry we ate your lunch,” learn the be aware. “Thank you for sharing… P.S. Our humans said thank you for leaving a note. We didn’t like the note, we got in trouble.”
Let’s hope she remembers to eat her footlong earlier than delivering mail to the Jordan home!
The apology submit obtained one other large response from the net neighborhood – so huge, the truth is, that Jordan determined to create a separate Facebook web page dedicated to Bear and Bull’s antics.
The mischievous brothers are blissfully unaware of their newfound fame – one thing Jordan is grateful for, saying the notoriety would absolutely go to their heads!
