Bro do you even exist? Throw a box at someone’s dog you best be ready to square up against the owner regardless of how many toddlers that pup ate that day. Dog owners threaten people just for looking at the dogs wrong.
Except his didn’t just “square up”, he aggressively stepped towards the owner with a very threatening attitude and posture. That wasn’t just getting ready to defend.
The only approach I see is hands out in a “the fuck are you doing, dude” kind of way. Even if the owner ran out yelling, driver’s response is over the top. Just keep walking away.
I can understand the reaction to the dog in the moment, but what followed was just over the top escalation.
Fight or flight response was still going and turned to FIGHT! human nature is messy.

But you can’t see how the owner was approaching him. Could have been proportional.

Yeah, audio really is needed to understand the situation.
The owner could have changed his stance after the guy reacted. Because it looked like he was just walking away at first.
bullies never expect to get an aggressive response so it immediately checks them
I would too. I’d be shouting things like “hey dickweed! If you like deliveries - ever - you’re gonna control that dog.”
Escalation seems like it’s the go-to for most people in the USA
