Take Your Dog to the Office!
There have been several reports released claiming that taking your pet dog to work can help you reduce stress levels and create a calmer working environment. Its believed having a dog around can help to reduce blood pressure levels and get feel-good hormones pumping around your body!
Dr Roger Henderson, who has written books on lowering stress, says:
“Human feel-good hormones (endorphins) are released with a dog near-by in stressful situations, but it’s a mystery as to why. I would like to see many more dogs involved in working environments.”
According to experts having a dog in the office can build up a person’s resistance to anxiety, coughs, digestive disorders and headaches as well as boosting their energy. Many businesses, in particular across the States, are now allowing them.
Experts have long recognized that in general people are less stressed when they own pets and that stroking pets has a positive and healing influence on people. There are some theories that suggest this is due to urges to groom that go back to our primate ancestory although others argue there must be other factors involved as often people report feeling better simply because a dog is in the room.
Here in the UK, there is ‘Take the Dog to the Office day’ which is held every September. Unfortunately most companies don’t participate. So collar your boss and see if tyou and your colleague can benefit from some doggie feel-good vibes.
