10 companies that let you bring your dog to work
Research has shown that if you give your child a puppy -- or another four-legged companion -- you will have a higher shot at raising the next big CEO.
Data by Kelton Research for Banfield Pet Hospital found that 93 percent of C-suite executives said they had a pet growing up, with more than 78 percent of them attributing their success to their furry friends.
If that isn’t enough reason to get a pet, a whopping 77 percent of current C-suite executives even admitted that they came up with a big business idea while walking their dogs.
So, it's no surprise that more and more companies are now offering their employees the opportunity to bring their furry friends to work.
