Lettin the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin it back in.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't gonna happen anyway.

I love being able to bring one of the gang to work now and then. We don't get many people coming by, but there have been times when we have had visitors and they love seeing a little four legged employee.

Amazing... I wish wish wish I could bring Sola to work. I would never even ask, because of the nature of my workplace, I just don't think it would ever work. Plus I work in the library, so that wouldn't be a good combo

I worked in a group home last summer where the Executive Director brought her dog in every day. When we got Chase she let me bring him in on my shifts if hubby was working. It's pretty much how it was even possible for us to be able to get a pup - it was really great Unfortunately it's also very rare...

Hey, I work in an art gallery and I bring both dogs to work. It works, why not a library
