Any headline with 'dog' in it grabs my attention. In this case, I couldn't agree more -- had 1 or more dogs at TeachStreet for many years, and I know it kept things more casual and low(er) stress. As one of the key dog-owners, though, I do admit that the need to take them out a few times per day can turn into a bit of a distraction, especially if you finally get in the zone and then have to break it up -- I know everyone says that it's good to walk/relax, but I'm not sure they're the ones who are supposed to be running the show. Anyway, love the article.
