Dogs in the Workplace Etiquette
It should include:
- Areas off-limits to dogs, especially places where sensitive equipment or products are stored, break rooms, etc.
- Guidelines for dogs that are not spayed or neutered.
- Require owners to keep control of their dog at all times.
- Determine what behaviors will evict a dog, and agree upon the number of “strikes” a dog will be allowed before eviction.
- Make sure all visiting dogs are current on vaccinations and also don’t have internal or external pests.
- Designate an outdoor area for walking dogs.
- Bring along baggies and equipment to clean up after dogs.
- Designate non-dog areas to accommodate people who don't like dogs or have allergies.
- Only allow dogs that are well-socialized to people or other dogs. Not all dogs get along.
Remember, the workplace is not a playground for your dog. If he or she begins to distract others from their work, consider banning dogs from the workplace.

Recognized by the United Kennel Club in 1913, the American Eskimo is a member of the ancient and wide ranging Spitz family of dogs. White Spitzes were popular in Pomerania and in the coastal regions of Germany. Sailors traded the white dogs throughout Europe. When Queen Charlotte of England acquired several white Spitzes, the dogs became fashionable among British aristocrats. White Spitzes appear in several Gainsborough paintings. Known as the German Spitz in its homeland, the breed was renamed the American Eskimo in 1917. |
