Saltmarsh Hosts First Bring Your Dog to Work Day

8/18/2016 - By Zachary Farrington

The Saltmarsh offices in Pensacola and Fort Walton Beach hosted the first Bring Your Dog to Work Day with great success. From gigantic Newfoundland Terriers to energetic Labrador puppies, dogs of all shapes and sizes invaded Saltmarsh on Thursday, August 18^th. Dogs and owners met together during two group dog walk times at 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to stretch their paws and legs. Even those who did not bring their dog were able to participate by joining in the dog walks or serving as a “baby” sitter when needed.

However, this puppy therapy did not just benefit the Saltmarsh family. In honor of “Bring Your Dog to Work” Day, Saltmarsh deemed Thursday a Jeans Day. For a $5 dollar donation, one could wear jeans to work, and all money collected went to benefit the Humane Society of the United States. The Humane Society is the nation’s largest and most effective animal protection organization, providing care for more than 100,000 animals each year.
