What's up dog?
Where to start.... he honestly makes every single day at work feel like a blessing. Having him here and the energy he gives makes the environment feel so much at ease when we are stressed. The girls and myself will find ourselves sometimes just cuddling with him on the couch when we've had a bad day or a bad moment. He will walk around the office going person to person and sitting with them too. When he isn't here we all feel like something is missing. We've even had clients come in and he's walked up to them and introduced himself to them and they've LOVED it! We get trades now that pop in to have a 'zard cuddle'. I've had moments where I've had things happen within work and it's like he knows something is wrong, so will walk up to me and rest his head on my leg. He will walk to the car when I am leaving in the morning as he knows the Routine we have. He does tricks, so sometimes when we've got an older demographic of people in the office we give them a little show which brightens their days!
Purpose
Four-legged support can be shown in multiple ways and furry forms in the workplace, and this award celebrates a supreme dog that supports their people to do their best work. We are looking for a top office dog with tail wags, affectionate licks, playful walks and that special presence that boosts their owner and co-worker’s mental health while contributing to a positive work culture. They may be a work from home dog, an office dog – or a hybrid pooch!
