i have to tell you all about work. like i said my boss lives next door. she lives with her mother. between them both there are 4dogs &3cats.

all 4 dogs & 1 cat come to visit us as we work throughout the day. mostly the older dogs- holly & daisy and the cat-baxter. at 730 they come through the shop & stop at everyones work station to get petted and morning love. then they have to stop at the work station across from to get thier morning dog bucuit. if you ask the what they want..they will "speak" sometimes it is a funny undescribable dog noise & others times a loud bark.
when you tell them goodbye..they leave. they are back promptly at 855 right before 9am break sitting patiently waiting for another buscuit!! then they are back in at 1030 because that is when UPS gets there with deliveries...he gives them a buscuit,too! they come back 2 more times- lunch & 230. it is so funny...you can set your watch by them !!
they have a bucket of water in the bathroom. sometimes they come in and just take a nap wherever they plop.
the 2 smaller dogs- belle & lizzie- only come in when the boss's mom comes in to fill the soda machine & get the mail.of course they also have to get petted by everyone & get their treats.
baxter the cat will jump up on the work sink & someone has to turn on the water for his drink. then he gets his treat & is off.he might come in twice a day

somedays they make it a regular zoo in there especially when the dogs decide to play chase!! and its the only time of the day when we don't get in trouble for stopping work to chat a few.
so for us it is everyday we see dogs at work.now if we can only train them to do some work...LOL

Where I used to work, the 2 bosses' dogs used to come in sometimes. One was a cocker spaniel, & in spaniel fashion, used to go through the trash & sometimes pee on the floor in excitement. LOL.


What I wanna know is--When are we going to have Bring Your Cat to Work Day? ;o) Once somebody brought her kitten in, in a carrier.
