Dogs and the Mailman

Today on my walk to campus I saw a big shaggy dog sitting on the grass in front of a house. As I walked I watched the dog and was just thinking to myself how that dog will need a hair cut with the warm weather coming on. Then all of a sudden the dog gets up and starts running. He runs into the street towards oncoming traffic and I'm thinking, "do you have a death wish? what are you doing dog?" And then... I see the mail truck. The dogs nearly jumps in front of the truck barking at it and running. After the truck passed the dog went back to his yard and laid back down.
I had never seen a first hand account of how much dogs hate the mailman. Someone said that dogs hate the mailman because they invade their territory and I had never thought about it that way before. I just thought it was the funniest thing so I wanted to share my experience. :)
