Take your dog to work day

by Darren Jamieson on September 17, 2009

Yesterday, Wednesday 16th September was once again the annual Take Your Dog To Work Day, an event that is still not widely known or recognised but with each year that passes it seems that more people become aware of it.

This day is organised and promoted by The Blue Cross in an effort to raise funds to help with animal care and dogs in particular and encourage people to spend more time with their dogs.

Taking dogs to work is something few of us can enjoy all the time and even with those few companies who do allow dogs in the office, it could be a potential issue if employees are allergic to dogs or if one dog fancies himself as a bit of a stud dog or top dog and has a disagreement with another dog.

The benefits outweight the cons though as 75% of GPs agree stress levels are reduced with dogs being around.

So, did anyone take their dog to work yesterday and how did it go?
