When dog owners donate £10 and sign up for the Dog With A Job Hall Of Fame they are in for a chance to win some pawtastic prizes donated by our business sponsors in our competition.

Founded and organised by multi-award winning ethical pet care brand HOWND. Jo Amit of HOWND says: “Bring Your Dog To Work Day has really taken off over the last six years.  We have some incredible sponsors on board and the goodwill and support is tremendous. People have really taken the day to heart and organise some great workplace events to celebrate bringing their dogs to work, it’s such a treat for dogs and their owners alike and great fun for everyone!”.

It is not too late for businesses to come on board as official sponsors and raise funds for their own animal welfare charities too. Bring Your Dog To Work Day’s social pages, as well as the official charity’s, will share all Bring Your Dog To Work Day official sponsors’ in-house fundraising events, competitions and activities in their social feeds.  

In return for a business making a minimum £100 donation, its company logo and website link will be displayed on the homepage, and they will receive a thank you shout out from All Dogs Matter and Animals Asia on social media. It is a great opportunity to associate a brand with this worthwhile and pawtastic day!
