They had this article on Yahoo about it.

Quote:
One survey shows nearly one in five U.S. companies allow pets at work. Millions of Americans believe pets on the job lower absenteeism and encourage workers to get along, according to the survey by the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association.
We sort of allow it here. I work in a small office that is very family friendly. Dogs have been in before in between grooming and vet appts.

I allow people to bring their dogs to work ever day but think its a great idea. For most people its a major stress relief to have their pets around. ( My company only consit of 3 people the most working at the time) The only place the dogs are not allowed is in the storage room where the dog items are kept since we sell dog toys and clothing. Since I have already had 4 pawed theifs from them. Also when I worked for my brothers company (mortgage) I was able to bring RIo to work and it made the day go so much quicker.
Happy Bring your Dog to Work Day!

I Wish I had known, I would've asked my boss if I could've brought Mufasa in! I doubt it though. I work at at Real Estate office, and I don't think clients would've liked it too much!

My office staff is really nice, and I don't think they'd have a problem with it, I think the clients and agents who come in might. Mufasa is a great dog, just some people in this industry can be finicky.

I'm not in a situation to bring them right now either, but I'm sure it would make the day go by much more quickly. It'd make the work environment so much more pleasant, too. Hopefully, one day.
