LONDON -- Going to work every morning is bad enough, but it's even harder when you can't take your dog in with you.

Well not for some on Friday. As part of a campaign to raise money for dog welfare charities, a British pet grooming company HOWND organised 'Bring Your Dog to Work Day' in the UK.

Images of dogs in ties, dogs in meeting rooms, and dogs in helicopters were popping up on Twitter all day. Ricky Gervais even got involved.
