This office is the most dog-friendly workplace that's ever existed

It’s so damn welcoming to dogs that it’s gone viral.

KURGO IS A pet product supplier based just outside Boston – but they don’t run a normal office.

As you might imagine, they absolutely love dogs – and have turned their workplace into a fully dog-friendly zone.

It’s so damn welcoming to dogs that it’s gone viral.

Each little area has a dog door with a nice soft grass patch so that everyone can bring their dog in every day

Boston.com covered their ridiculously cute office last week – and the attention has taken off from there.

It’s a place where friendly pooches roam the halls

The owners told Boston.com that it’s good to have little product testers around, but the dogs help in so many other ways too:

Any job can be stressful at times, but having dogs around gives us a release. Taking our dogs for a walk at lunch, or just giving them a scratch is a pausing point…like if you’re having a serious conversation and the dogs are doing something goofy. It makes everything a little less serious.

Adorable

The whole company has bought into it too.

Sure who wouldn’t want this guy as a co-worker?
