I don’t get dogs in the office. I’m in the armed forces and when they were recently nearly banned at our place of work it caused a proper ruckus. If you haven’t organised yourself to properly care for it full time then don’t get one.
It all started with us years ago when i had a dog with a tumour on her leg that needed dressings changed. Work said why not bring her in, and people liked having her around, when she died everyone missed her and i brought the next one in
It does help with everyones stress management, and we get to walk them in the field next door which is much healthier than eating lunch at your desk, or standing about smoking.
All pretty good reasons i’d say! 😛
