If you don’t want to read a post that is so dog filled you may vomit, then avert your eyes NOW!
Lando and I both made sure to eat a BIG breakfast so that we had LOTS of energy for the big day!

As soon as we got in to the office, Lando made herself right at home, and made fast friends with Kaycee (my friend Kelly’s dog)

She felt so comfortable, that she had no trouble hunkerin’ down, smack dab in the middle of the entire office walk way:

She helped Kaycee destroy her stuffed lobster (sorry ROSE!) – but didn’t do a good job of hiding the evidence…

There was even a bake sale – that had “human treats” and “doggie treats” – so of course I bought some fancy stuff for Landy:

Aren’t those cute?
The rest of the day was pretty much a blur – in every sense of the word! I couldn’t get a single good picture of the girls playing, because they were going a million miles a minute!

Chasing each other

Feeling so sorry for themselves because we barricaded off all the entrances (BOTH OF THEM ESCAPED TWICE!!!!!!!!!):

Chasing my co-workers:

This is as close as Lando got to her bed all day long. So glad I dragged it all the way in!

Before lunch, Lando helped me pull my TPS report:

Once “we” were finished our work (wink, wink) – we headed outside for a bathroom break, and to watch the hot dog eating contest!

The professional photographer got a picture of me -taking a picture of the hot dogs!

Did you see those bags with the stick figures? Those are barf bags – I know that – because the stick figure on the front is stick vomiting.

While we were outside – we found not 1 – but 2 PUGGLE FRIENDS! This one looked exactly like Lando – just lighter…

and this one was a cutie – but had more beagle in her than Lando does (her tail was curly – just not curly for this picture!)

All of the American Greetings Interactive people with their pups! (See me and Landy in the middle? TOTALLY representing the GREEN, and DOG in Green Dog Wine! WOOT WOOT!)

In the afternoon – there was more “feeling sorry for myself” action coming out of Lando:

Aren’t I so terrible for only allowing her 1,000 square feet to play in?
We ended the day with a meeting, where Lando showed off her wheelin’ and dealin’ skills:

“You’ve got something I want. Give it to me now.”
After Lando failed to properly negotiate herself a Dorito – she ended up in my lap, and was asleep in 30 seconds – here we are together just moments before she finally called it a day:

Honestly - I’m not sure who was more tired – me, or her! She slept all night long (which is usually her “romp’n'play” time!
Wait. Is this a food blog? Because I certainly just talked a whole crap load about my dog. Oh yeah – I did warn you that would happen on the very first line of the post.
To humor the food aspect – here’s what I ate yesterday (you already saw breakfast)!





HAPPY FRIDAY MY LOVELIES!

yay for take your dog to work day! I thought it was today though! LOL> my mom couldn’t do it because of “safety issues”, but she wasn’t even the one to suggest it, her boss suggested it to everyone! Too bad it was voted down

I love Lando so much!
Whenever Chris takes Basil to work (his office is super dog friendly), Basil can barely keep his eyes open on the car ride back. I’m glad Lando found a friend to play with!

How fun! You’re so lucky! I work for the gov’t (no comment) and they aren’t on board with Take Your Dog to Work Day. Lando is adorable and obviously she had a great day.
