There is a puppy in my office today

It's Saturday, and I'm at work. Someone else who is working today brought in a puppy. I don't know what kind it is (I'm not a dog person, so I tend to classify them as "little rat-dogs," "big noisy dogs," and greyhounds; this one looks like it will grow up to be some sort of little rat-dog). While I normally prefer cats and kittens, this puppy is pretty darling, especially when it barked almost in an involuntary manner, as if it were sneezing.

ah, sweet, take a picture of it!

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 19 April 2003 16:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh, the first thing I thought when I saw it was "I wish I had a digital camera"!

be warned, puppies have a lot of destructive power. My dog chewed up plaster, a cactus and a suitcase when he was a young 'un.

yep, totally.

I volunteer at an office that has a puppy. Awwww. She is fond of kissing my face.

Wouldn't it be great if all the mean people on earth got magically transformed into adorable puppies? Everybody would be a winner. We should really look into this option.

Yes, but who would supply the puppy chow and the doggy treats? Unless you were expecting MASS PUPPY CANNIBALISM OH NO!

Do you want to lick my face, Paul?

This was a puppy of mass destruction...


All baby creatures are cute, otherwise their parents would kill them when the parents got bored and wanted to go out to the movies.

Rosemary, please bear in mind that there are old and frail people reading these boards. I am not up to excitement like this.

The mean people into puppies idea is a strong one, as puppies are easier to drown.

(I don't have the same problem with dogs as I do with cats, but hey)

there have never been any puppies in my office. There were kids last week tho, so it's only a matter of time...

At one point this puppy tried to eat my shoelaces. Fiber-rich, probably, but not very nutritious.

two weeks pass...
The puppy is back this weekend! She's a Shih-tzu and her name is "Strudel."

― j.lu (j.lu), Sunday, 4 May 2003 16:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Does she taste like chicken?

(Sorry, I'm starving and wouldn't turn away a puppy-kebab right about now.)

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Sunday, 4 May 2003 18:46 (twenty-three years ago)

how about as ass-kebab? mmm bitey!

We have a dog in our office named Bailey. He's a golden retriever - pretty cute, but how come that lady gets to bring her dog in every day? (she's not disabled or anything). I daydream about bringing my cats to work. Pepper would probably sit on top of my computer monitor and purr all day.

I brought my cat in to work once. He was terrified, and hid behind the sofa all day.

Assuming that one is not getting paid to interact with a puppy, I don't know how anyone could possibly get any work done when there's a puppy present.

Ollie is definitely upper management potential

― jmm, Thursday, 29 November 2018 20:58 (seven years ago)

i seriously wish our company would allow dogs to come to work with us

this place is already loud enough, i highly doubt the dogs would be that much louder

'Sorry, puppy, I have to crunch these numbers instead of playing with you' = a thing no one has ever said with any conviction.

im not sure my union brothers and sisters would be too stoked - as there's bigger fish to fry - but i would love to argue for putting dog's at work into the collective agreement
