Following the success of last year’s most memorable day at the office, Britain is getting set for next month’s Bring Your Dog To Work Day.

On Friday, June 26, businesses from across the UK will welcome their dog loving employees into the workplace, along with their four-legged companions.

This year the event will be raising money for All Dogs Matter, a charity that rehomes hundreds of dogs every year in London and Norfolk. Businesses can donate online (minimum of £50) to take part and become a sponsor, while individuals can gift online or via text (minimum of £2 online, or £1 via text) and upload a ‘pooch selfie.’

“We’re very hopeful that we can build on the success of 2014 and raise money for All Dogs Matter. It’s a small charity that has a massive impact on the welfare of dogs in the UK,” explains Jo Amit, co-founder of dog grooming product company HOWND, the company behind the initiative.

“A variety of businesses adopted the idea last time around and planning is well underway for this year’s event, which is scheduled for Friday 26 June 2015. Both businesses and individuals can donate and get involved, even if they already take a dog to work. Just a small donation of £2 could be used to buy food for one day, while £10 is enough to buy new bedding for these rescue dogs.”

ITV This Morning presenters Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford were amongst thousands of enthusiastic participants back in 2014, as Britain went barking for its very first Bring Your Dog To Work Day. 

Last June, companies across the nation welcomed their dog-loving employees into the workplace, along with their four-legged best friends, to raise money for three animal charities that included All Dogs Matter, Animals Asia and PupAid. The idea took hold in businesses of all kinds, including film studios, hair salons, dentists and even boutique wine stores! 

The initiative was also backed by one of the UK’s leading pet insurance companies, Animal Friends.
