Re: Dogs in Offices

An employee working as a clerk in an office block in the city decides
to bring his dog to work and to keep it in a corner of his office (he
has his own office) and to take it for a walk in the nearby streets
at intervals. Management have not yet expressed any opinion, but his
colleagues are not very happy about it, though they haven't come up
with any specific reasons for objecting.

Is it usual to ban pets from offices? Has anyone any experience of
such a situation?

Banned in ours. Bring allergies, germs, hair, chewing, shitting, trip
hazards etc, without any redeeming business benefit (excepting the soothed
sentiments of their addled owner perhaps, which may still be a tolerable
exchange in a small informal workplace).
