Celebrate National Take Your Dog to Work Day and take your pooch to work on Friday, June 26th. Register for the event and you could win a prize from FetchDog.

The holiday was first celebrated in 1999 as a testament to the love and companionship of our beloved canine pets, and to encourage adoption of needy animals from local shelters.

The Take Your Dog to Work Day website has great information and tips about how to celebrate the event:

We are asking every business--great and small--to become a true friend of the canine community by helping Pet Sitters International promote pet adoptions in a positive and proactive way! Explore our site to learn how you can participate, register your business and spread the word.

Though it may seem odd to take your dog to work, some people claim that the pratice can increase productivity.

"Taking your dogs to work is a growing trend among small businesses, particularly tech firms and creative agencies," says John S. Long III, public relations coordinator for Pet Sitters International.

So take you dog to work and get more done.
