Pets can be great company, reduce stress, and create a good work environment. But many people, and pets, are concerned about losing their day companions as they head back into the office.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some people may be able to bring their pets into the office with them, though. Before escorting a four-legged friend into an office setting, there are many things to consider. If you decide to bring your pup to work, there may be some obstacles. We have compiled a list of tips to make the process easier for everyone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is Your Dog Fit for Office Life?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your workplace decides it is alright to bring your pet in, several considerations should be taken to ensure your animal is the right fit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is your dog loud?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is your dog potty trained?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is your dog good with others?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is your dog able to occupy themselves?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are questions to ask yourself before transitioning to office life. If your dog is vocal, your office mates may not be appreciative of barks and whines. If not potty trained, you will have to take them out often. Dogs that are not amiable with others may not be the best fit for office life. If brought to the workplace, dogs should keep themselves busy to not disturb others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commuting<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have to drive near or far to work, you should invest in the proper car security for your pet. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/aurora-parker-colorado\/the-best-dog-travel-crates-of-2021\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dog carriers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/orlando-dog-training\/health-safety\/should-i-travel-with-a-dog-harness\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">harnesses<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> allow the driver to focus and could save your dog\u2019s life if in an accident.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make Your Dog at Home<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By making your dog feel relaxed and invited, they will enjoy their time at the office a lot more. If you are able, make them a cozy area with a bed, blanket, toys, or anything else your dog enjoys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping things like toys, treats, and food on hand can allow for rewards and occupation. Having these things at the office is convenient if you need to hit a meeting. Remember that squeakers in toys can be quite a nuisance, though, so try to choose quiet toys.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be Prepared<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accidents and inconveniences will likely happen, but it is always best to prepare. Keep floor cleaner and towels at your desk if your animal has an accident.\u00a0 If your dog is a snorer, try to reposition them in their sleep so others are not disturbed. When your dog farts, try using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sitmeanssit.com\/dog-training-mu\/longmont-firestone-dog-training\/can-i-use-air-fresheners-around-dogs\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">air fresheners<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and anti-gas treats. When mishaps like this occur, it is best to be prepared, apologetic, and respectful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, have fun! Not everyone can take their dog into the office, so consider yourself lucky and enjoy the time together with your furry friend. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many people have experienced the joys of having their pet around while working from home these past few years.
