In the forefront of a growing trend in American workplaces, Liz Palika and Jennifer Fearing have written the definitive guide to creating a business environment where employees' dogs are welcome. DOGS AT WORK presents the tangible benefits of dog-friendly policies in employee morale, staff retention, and increased human-animal bonding and provides step-by-step advice on obtaining management buy-in, setting fair procedures and protocols, and dealing with any concerns once dog-friendly policies are in place. DOGS AT WORK also includes detailed advice on how to prepare your dog for the office environment and case studies on how dog-friendly policies have succeeded at two nationally known organizations. Liz Palika is an award-winning writer who specializes in the topics of dogs, cats, and other pets. She is a Certified Dog Trainer and a Certified Behavioral Consultant living in California.
