If it gets too hot- and you don't want a hot dog- stick the dog in your tank for a bit. It could also double up as a brush.
I'm just being silly, mate; I don't have a dog but a few wc'ers on here do take their dogs with them.

Why would you want to take your dog to work?

What sort of impression do you think this would give?

I'd say it's a no vote from me.

  I take mine when I am working in an area that I worry about my van. He is as good as any alarm or immobiliser.

If someone showed up at my home to do some work and they had their bestest friend with them. Firstly I'd wonder why, secondly I'd more than likely tell them that the dog stays in the van. I have kids and dogs, not a great idea to bring a dog then..............

I am a dog owner, always have been. Some jobs do lend themselves to taking a dog to work, Shepherd, Customs, Security, dancer on talent shows etc. Somehow cleaning doesn't fit that list, apart from maybe a doggy-wash ;)

I take my Lab with me. He stays in the van mostly, but been cautious in the hot weather and only took him in the mornings. Wrong impression? How do you mean?

One of my friends gave me a hand one day and brought his staffie. I wasnt too impressed but agreed he could sit in the van. Whilst at most houses he was barking for his owner.

I was very embarrassed. I personally dont agree with it

My Greyhound used to come out with me and loved being in the van. A large greyhound curling up on an Escort van front seat was impressive to watch and he just used to sleep all day. Lovely dog but the most bone idle creature I've ever met.

how come people are under the impression that those of us that take dogs to work let them out whilst working  lmao seriously do you think we tie em up to the clients gate or something!!!  and do you go out snooping in workers vans & shuddering if there's a dog inside curled up
