Celebrating Bring Your Dog to Work Day
Many scientific studies have found that the presence of pets can substantially reduce a person's stress level in the workplace.

Raising funds for All Dogs Matter

Tomorrow (June 26) businesses up and down the UK will welcome their dog-loving employees into the workplace - together with their four-legged friends - all in the name of charity.

Bring your Dog to Work Day is the second national event of its kind, with all proceeds going to All Dogs Matter - a charity which rescues and re-homes hundreds of dogs in London and Norfolk every year.

Businesses, or any dog-loving employee, can become an official sponsor by making a donation online or by text.  Company logos and pooch selfies can also be uploaded to the All Dogs Matter website.

As well as raising funds for a good cause, the charity says that Bring Your Dog to Work Day could have positive benefits for employee productivity and wellbeing:

"Many scientific studies have found that the presence of pets can substantially reduce a person's stress level in the workplace. Increased job satisfaction, team co-operation and morale have all been reported in employees that spend the workday with their pets.

"So in addition to raising funds, Bring Your Dog to Work Day is likely to boost the productivity and happiness of the employees within your company."

Milk recalled over presence of veterinary medicines

Graham's Family Dairy has issued a recall for its semi-skimmed milk due to the presence of veterinary medicines in the product.

In a risk statement, the Food Standards Agency said the presence of the medicines, including penicillin, make the milk unsafe to consume and 'may be a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to antibiotics'.

Customers who bought the product are advised to return it to the store of purchase for a full refund.
