I used to love bringing my dog Bailey into work with me. Unfortunately, someone complained about people bringing their dogs into work.. and now, work is a NO DOG ZONE. Can you take your dog to work? Would you like to? I've been emailed this new job search website that lets you search for jobs that are DOG FRIENDLY. Simplyhired.com has this website. It teamed up with Dogster.com to set this up, and to take a survey of dog owners with the results: What dog owners would do if allowed to bring their dog to work: 66% - Work longer hours On the list of dog-friendly employers gathered by Dogster and Simply Hired are over 400 companies, including notable Internet giants Amazon and Google. Small companies of less than 50 employees make up the majority of the list, with California being the state with the most dog-friendly companies. Dog-friendly policies appear to come with the territory when it comes to most pet stores, humane societies, groomers and vet offices. Local branch offices of real estate and retail outlets also litter the list. I found 56 in Texas. Companies that want to add their dog-friendly listings to the site can head to Dogster.com. 1 CommentsLeave a comment |
It is too bad that more companies do not recoganize the importance of peoples' pets in their lives.
