Although almost every day at Six Apart is Take Your Dog to Work Day, Friday was extra special because it was the official Take Your Dog to Work Day! Plus, as lovers of blogs and animals, we think it's great that active blogger and Human Society's President and CEO, Wayne Pacelle, thinks having dogs around the office is a good reminder of "who we're working for."
We realize some people have it ruff and aren't lucky enough to be able to bring their dog to work, but hopefully these pictures taken at Six Apart last Friday will get your tails wagging... And let me tell you, it's harder than it looks to get all the doggies and their fetching owners in one picture.
It's been a slow news week here on Team Vox, with the mid-week holiday and all, so I figured it's a good time to check in on what the office dogs are up to.
Maddy and Mocha are stylin' with their brand new haircuts.
Ellie and Pista have been enjoying the great outdoors.
And Rudy's having a better time than all of us combined.
These guys need to get back to work.

With our post about the new features added in the last release, we briefly mentioned that our four-legged friends were getting some theme love. Tiffany did a great job making these themes look incredibly cute.
But what's really special about these themes is that they're patterned after several of our dear doggy friends who come to work at Six Apart with their owners.
Maddy belongs to Ben and Mena, Mocha is Barak's, Shelby belongs to Winnie, and Jay took Stella in after Ginevra moved across the country.
To say that Six Apart is a dog-friendly workplace is an understatement; many of us here are dog-obsessed. Two of the above dogs have their own blogs, and they're all friends who hang out together.
I think the coolest part of this collection of themes is how personal it is. Tiffany created likenesses of these doggies with great care and attention to detail, down to Mocha's curls and silver eyebrows and Maddy's smirk and crooked ear. And that's one of the best aspects of Vox -- it's personal.
We're definitely looking to adding more breeds to our themes -- and we're always looking for inspiration!
