National Take Your Dog to Work Day?

Did you know that today is National Take Your Dog to Work Day? Well... It is. And before you ask, allow me to say – I have no clue why a person would want to take his/her dog to work for a day. But, should be feel inclined to celebrate this day to its fullest extent by taking your pooch to the office, here are a few suggestions for fun activities that you two can enjoy during your day at work.

• Strap a little cart to your dog and allow him/her to deliver the office mail.
• Dip your dog's paws in ink and allow him/her to stamp all your paperwork with his/her doggie seal of approval.
• Play pranks on your coworkers by leaving fake (or perhaps not so fake) doggie poo on their desks, chairs, and photocopiers.
• Set up a doggie drinking fountain near the water cooler so you may share a bit of office gossip.
• Play tug-of-war with the new guy's necktie.
• Take your pooch out for a power lunch.
• Feed any boring paperwork to your dog, and then use the ol' “my dog ate it” excuse at your next project status meeting.
• Encourage the puppy to “water” all the office plants for you.
• Release the hound(s) on any unwanted solicitors.
• Allow your dog to sit in for you at your teleconference with Tokyo - just to see if anyone notices...
