You have a very low threshold for what is considered gross. That's just the tip of the iceberg with pets! (and babies)

Neither of those noisy (distracting) things belong in an office, though. Offices are a place for focus.

Haven't had an office dog, but shop dogs are usually wonderful- sweet, quiet, unobtrusive, and pleasant to have around.

Not all dogs are like that, of course

What's wrong with bringing a baby to the office?
