Jett, a delightful 4-year-old German Shepherd, has always had an uncanny ability to make friends. One of the most significant relationships, though, is with Curt Stickley, the garbage truck driver.
Jett’s father, Derek Molter, says the encounter started around a year ago. Curt decided to ask the garbage truck driver if he may come over and pet the dog while he was out in the yard.
According to Derek, who spoke to The Dodo,
“The driver exited the vehicle and approached Jett, asking whether it was appropriate to give him a treat. “Of course, I said yes, and we became friends.”
This couple has a lovely routine that they have formed. Jett intends to welcome Curt like this for a few seconds, and it appears that they both enjoy that time.
Derek explains:
“If I’m home, I let Jett out once a week, and he goes about and sits on the grass, patiently waiting for his friend Curt to come over and bring him a treat.”
Derek couldn’t keep up with the garbage truck passing his house a few days ago, and Jett couldn’t go out for two weeks in a row to wait for his pal. Curt was clearly missed by the dog, and he wasn’t the only one who missed the charming routine.
The man discovered some dog goodies in his mailbox after seeing a letter that stated “look inside.”
Curt, too, missed Jett and wanted to express his feelings in some way. Derek was so impressed by the gesture that he decided to share the images on Facebook, and the tale quickly went viral.
Derek continued, ”
“I went so far as to phone the City of Kamloops Solid Waste Department and spoke with the driver’s supervisor to express my gratitude for their exceptional service.”
Derek makes every effort to be home for the garbage truck tour so that these two pals may have a brief reunion and Curt can see the dog for at least a few seconds. Jett’s routine is one of his greatest.
