Not every dog is lucky enough to be able to go to work with mom or dad, however some have the opportunity today, Take Your Dog to Work Day!
Dogs in the workplace help:
· foster a calmer work environment.
· reduce stress.
· contribute to increased worker productivity.
Here is one cute dog, Teddy, who shows everyone just how to relax in the office.

Wednesday Pet Roundup
Hi and welcome to Wednesday Pet Roundup!* Join the Million Heart Challenge to benefit canine heart disease research, and maybe win a trip too! PRNewswire brings you the details.
* Fox news reports that San Francisco is considering a ban on goldfish. The reason? "Inhumane suffering of the fish" and the way the fish are harvested.
* Friday is Take Your Dog to Work Day, but the Washington Post reports on one office dog--Bean, the Shih Tzu--who was given his pink slip after a year of faithful service.
* From Huff Post, a Massachusetts family happily found all 7 of their pet cats alive after a tornado destroyed their home.
What about you? Are you going to take your dog to work Friday? What do you think of the goldfish ban? And Kelly wants to know if you'd like to come play in the ferns with her!
Take Your Dog to Work Day is more than just fun
Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day!Why? you might ask. Is this just a day to get torment our bosses and reduce work productivity? Who's idea was this anyway, and what purpose does it serve?
Take Your Dog To Work Day actually has a wonderful purpose. First celebrated in 1999, the day was created by Pet Sitters International and the goal is to encourage pet adoptions from shelters, humane societies and rescue groups. When you and your beautiful dog stroll into the office, co-workers without dogs will see the bond between you and your pooch, and may want to consider adopting one of their own.
It also serves to encourage the value of pets in the workplace. Employers find that the day boosts morale and also is a great public relations opportunity. So I hope all offices are going to the dogs today.
