There’s still time to join in the exciting doggie fun tomorrow for the pupular Bring Your Dog To Work Day.  Now in its sixth year, companies large and small will join in what promises to be a dogtastic day at work.

It’s a great opportunity for pet brands to raise their profile by sponsoring the charity, which so far has had coverage in The Sun, The Mail on Sunday (Healthy Pet Guide), Lad Bible, Waitrose Weekend, The Mirror, The Daily Telegraph, The Independent and over 30 other media titles, with ITV, BBC and other broadcasters and media outlets planning coverage for the big day.

With more signing up each day it’s still not too late to join in and get your logo and info about your brand and a link to your websites on the Bring Your Dog To Work Day website and a shout out on social media – the event always trends at number 1 on Twitter.

Each year the nation embraces this pupular day out when our four-legged furry friends get to spend time with their human at work for the annual charity event that thousands of businesses and dog owners across the country take part in.

From one-man bands, to large corporates, companies, schools, local fire stations, gyms, household brands and other organisations are sponsoring the event, with many donating prizes now worth over £1000 to the annual “Dog With A Job” mega competition.

To be in with a chance to win the competition companies dog owners can upload a pooch selfie in the Dog With A Job Hall of Fame with one lucky dog and their owner scooping the big prize.

Every year the hashtag #bringyourdogtoworkday trends at number 1 on Twitter. Bring Your Dog To Work Day has been lucky enough to have celebrity support since the launch of the initiative in 2014 including dog lovers Ricky Gervais and Downton Abbey’s Peter Egan and support from some of the UK’s most dog friendly companies.  

Jo Amit, co-founder of Bring Your Dog To Work Day and HOWND, the ethical pet care brand says: “As a nation of dog lovers it’s so exciting to see how this has captured the imagination of dog owners and companies and is growing every year. It is well known that having a dog at work has great mental health benefits and more and more companies are becoming dog friendly. Each year more companies sign up and we’re proud to be involved in something that is doing good and also bringing a lot of joy to the workplace.”
