What’s your dog’s name, breed, and age, and how did they join the family?
This is Ziggy. He is a white dog of unknown breed. He has spots under that white fur, so maybe part dalmatian. Also possible: Dogo Argentino or Bull Terrier? Probably mutt.
How did your dog get their name?
My wife Sarah gave him this name. My daughter Lily wanted to name him Cali (like California) because she wanted us to move to the beach. I just call him Mr. Dog or similar.
Describe a typical office day for Ziggy.
So far it looks like running around looking for toys, chewing another dog’s toy, sleeping. He really wants to go for a walk in the woods.
Favorite office snack or treat (and is there anything they’re not allowed to have)?
No chocolate or onions. Other than that he may or may not like dog treats. He loves goldfish and peanut butter. Also bacon and cat food.
What is the most ridiculous thing your dog does, at home, at the office, or when they meet someone new?
One you’re besties, he will try and climb on your lap, then up on your shoulder (he is much too big for this), and ultimately he would climb inside your skin with you if he could (not as creepy as it sounds).
One thing every coworker should know about Ziggy before they visit.
Let Ziggy meet you on his terms and at his pace, let him come to you, and don’t put your face in his face until you’re besties.
Would you rather your dog becomes a permanent full-time employee with benefits, or you get an extra week of vacation every year?
I would like Ziggy to get a full time salary with benefits and I would love an extra week of vacation, thank you!
