All work and no play makes Dogs Trust a dull office...

This week the communications team were delighted to witness their departmental Spaniel, Daniel, falling head-over-paws in love with Maggie, the very beautiful Golden Retriever.

Maggie is older and much wiser than Daniel, and knows how to clamp a tennis ball in her mouth so that ball-crazy Dan can see it but cannot touch it. His attempts to grab the ball from Maggie’s maw gave the comms team hours of free entertainment and kept both dogs very waggy.

Sadly. this blog does not yet come in Smell-O-Vision, as the whole Mags n Dan experience is enhanced by the perfume Maggie is wearing, “Eau De Regent’s Canal.” She took a lunchtime dip and smelt divine all afternoon.

Who says office life has to be boring?
