Today has been designated as Take Your Dog to Work Day by Pet Sitters International. This day was 
established in 1999 as a way to recognize dogs as great companions and to encourage adoption by showing non-dog owners the joys of owning a dog. Will you be taking your dog to work? Do you have any activities planned? What’s the best thing about taking your dog to work? Let us know how your day went!
