i usually do, especially when my wife is down in Az. but i was off today. he's an office fav and the kids love him. he doesn't have free roam of the office but he gets a lot more attention than kenneling him or leaving him home and having neighbor let him out every few hours. i have 6000 sq ft space with climate controlled storage lockers across the hall he absolutely loves. between my staff and myself, and some of the patients, he gets a lot of love...and treats

A lot of tech companies in Seattle are dog-friendly year round. We have everything from a Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees at our place.
We cater on Fridays and the admin always includes food for the dogs - most of the delivery places have dog stuff on their menu because there are so many dogs on the various campuses around town.

If you want to teach your pup the PB Trick, ax ZFB - he's a pro.
I like dogs in offices. Hope there aren't many complainers whining about it.

I like chartered airplanes, lobster three times a week and massages twice a day too.
None of that is going to happen at work!
Work is for work. Dogs are not work. Therefore, work is not the place for dogs.
Incidentally, I don't hate dogs. I have a 10-year-old cocker spaniel at home. Key word is AT HOME.

My daughter has taken her dog to work for years. Clients love him.

Those of you who have offices that allow dogs, have there been any issues at all? The future Mrs. TAMU gets an apartment provided by her work. We can't even get her department to approve us having a dog there. They say dogs are too much of a liability. I think if she asked to bring a dog to work, their heads would explode.

I had to stop at work for 10 minutes on a hot summer day on a day off and my dog was with me. I brought the dog inside and she promptly peed in my boss's office (had not done stuff like that before or since). Since we were moving to new digs and my boss hated the landlord, he found it quite funny.

jaybees was funnier-chunky or smooth??

i think the biggie is, ya better know your dog and it's disposition around strangers. i have an 85 lb. white siberian and even though he looks contentious, he rolls over for everyone to pet/scratch his tummy and licks their faces off. funny-i've tried the same and it doesn't go over as well
in Az. many of the stores are dog friendly. must be tethered somehow of course

Who cleans uo the dog poop on the carpet? And the smell. What do you do about the protesters who say animal ownership is cruel and barbaric???? What are the rules about kennel cough, rabies, and heart worm. What do you do about the dog who likes to eat his own poo?????
;D

I have been bitten 7 times.

I think that people clean up after their dogs. MSFT has ultimate disc leagues that include dogs
I understand that dogs who eat their own never leave the kennel without Sonoran Salsa.

Landlords need to reign this in, because it's starting to get out of hand in some places. I certainly have no problem with a single-professional office (e.g. doctor, dentist, lawyer, therapist, escort, accountant, etc.) that has a private access point being able to take a pet into the building, but then people wanted to take it a step further, and another step, and now, we have people bringing dogs into buildings through lobbies and elevators that are being accessed by hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of other people. Landlords are taking a big risk in relying upon pet owners to control their animals, but the even greater risk could cost a landlord much more than someone needing stitches after a dog bite...
More and more tenants (especially in regions of the country that correlate strongly with where people are taking pets to work) are negotiating IAQ (indoor air quality) language into their leases, which was originally intended to manage HEPA filtration and CO2 levels, but as soon as an animal (or any allergen) is taken into a room, that room's IAQ "level" is now compromised, and unlike CO2, dust, molds, etc.... animal allergens are different in that they cannot simply be disinfected, flushed or vacuumed out of the room at the end of the day... in fact, it can be very expensive to return a space to its original IAQ after an animal incident. So tenants are creating a situation where their own employee(s) could suffer, but not only that, they are shifting the burden to the landlord whose cost of compliance is a disincentive to action. If the landlord starts losing money, well, that's his problem, right? Absolutely... but in the meantime, now you have a tenant and their employees who are left in limbo and forced to make a decision whether to move to spend the money themselves to clean up, move to another building (also costs money), sue the landlord (also costs money), or - instead of spending any money at all - simply relocate or, more likely, eventually terminate the employee(s) who are having allergic responses.
I've watched this situation play out before, and it never ends well. In other words, pets in office buildings are a ticking sh|tshow.... if not literally, then figuratively.
