Wouldn't the work day be a whole lot better with your pooch by your side? Researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University say it would!

A recent study found bringing your dog to work reduces stress and makes the job more satisfying. The study was done at a North Carolina business that allows its employees to bring their dogs to work. Around 20 to 30 dogs are on site each day.  

Even employees without dogs enjoyed taking out their colleague's canines for a break.
