FOUR-LEGGED friends will be spending the day alongside their owners at offices across Cumbria today.
Bring Your Dog to Work Day, which aims to raise money for welfare charities All Dogs Matter and Animal Asia, has grown in popularity since its inception in 2014.
It encourages employees nationwide to throw convention out of the window and invite their pooch to join them for some Friday fun in the workplace.
Research by Wiltshire-based sponsor Poppy’s Picnic suggests making the initiative a more regular fixture could help relieve stress in the office.
Are you getting involved? If so then please share pictures of your dog at work with us at news.carlisle@cnmedia.co.uk or on our Facebook page – the best will be published in an online gallery at newsandstar.co.uk over the weekend.
