It’s Bad Enough Taking My Kid To Work Once A Year — Now That One, Too?

Thank goodness every other day is Spare Your Co-Workers Your Stinky Pet Day:

June 22 will mark Pet Sitters International’s ninth annual “Take Your Dog to Work Day,” a unique opportunity for owners and their pets to share a positive bonding experience in the workplace.

“‘Take Your Dog To Work Day’ works because it confronts the realities of pet overpopulation in a positive and proactive way,” said PSI president Patti Moran.

Dog owners who feel guilty about leaving their beloved pooch sitting alone in an empty house all day will have the opportunity to show them what their masters do while they would normally be catching a snooze on the couch.

The Staten Island Chamber of Commerce also will be participating in the event but has extended the invitation to felines as well.

“It’s discriminatory that it’s just for dogs,” joked Jennifer Fontana of Dongan Hills, who is excitedly bringing her chocolate Labrador, Jade, and puggle, Louie, to work on Friday.
