A dog in the office is one of the best ways of beating stress at work, advises a top stress expert. Reduced stress, lower blood pressure and the release of human feel-good hormones are just some of the reasons why every office should have a dog. Research in America, meanwhile, has shown that stroking a dog can help reduce stress and lower blood pressure. Advertising/ Media and Creative agencies are traditionally stressful places to work, but one character leading a dog’s life is Monsieur Brown, a Lurcher who is top dog at the Kunde & Co, an ad agency in central London. BAll Kunde & Co’s staff can be seen intermittently walking past and rubbing behind Brown’s ears and feeding him nibbles. ‘He’s lovely and very soothing, he really is,’ says Karime Kendra.
