Every office needs a dog

Author: Tim Malbon

Tilly

In March, Isaac brought Tilly to the office for the first time. (Obviously, she has her own Twitter account: @strategydog)

She's a Weimaraner. That's a big hunting dog bred originally by aristos for hunting. Very beautiful, quite unhinged.

Wikipedia notes that:

Weimaraners are high-strung and often wear out their owners, requiring appropriate training to learn how to calm them and to help them learn to control their behavior. Owners need patience and consistent, firm yet kind training, as this breed is particularly rambunctious during the first year and a half of its life. This breed is known for having a penchant for stealing food from table and counter tops whenever given the chance. 

That's certainly my experience. Yesterday, she urinated on me from the mezzanine floor.

And yet, despite all this we all love her, and it has been a genuinely brilliant experience to share the office here in London with this dog.
