what job do frankie and ella do? Frankie is Chief Welfare Officer at Park Avenue Recruitment and has a number of responsibilities including providing moral support to colleagues, offering cuddles, and inspecting the office space for any loose cardboard and wires.
what was their first day in the office like? Eventful! Frankie loves people and other dogs so she loved meeting her colleagues and other pups in the building, but we spent most of the day trying to keep her from eating cigarette butts outside. She travels to London on the train in her dog bag, and is carried on a 30 minute walk to the office as it’s too big a journey for her little legs. She loves sitting in her bag and watching the world go by.
how often does frankie go to the office? 2-3 days a week!
what is frankie's favourite thing to do in the office? Watch the world go by out of the windows.
does frankie like sharing her office space? Although she’s a little pup that sleeps most of the day and only works in one hour shifts, she’s a velcro dog and loves having company around her.
other than you (of course) who is frankie's favourite colleague? Frankie is a very lucky pup to have lots of colleagues who play with her and give her cuddles, but Sarah, Amy and Sean spend the most time chasing her around the room for attention.
how has having frankie at work improved the working environment? Frankie adds a little adventure to the day every day!
does frankie ever get up to mischief/any embarrassing office stories? On a daily basis! She loves fishing into her colleague’s bags to see what she can find, her favourite find so far that she was keen to run around with and show the building were some smelly gym socks. She’s left a nice poopy present right by her Daddy’s desk, and upset mummy by gobbling a stray Malteaser.
paws in home bonus question! how is frankie coping with the UK on lockdown? Frankie pup has never known a proper lockdown! She’s been to the pub, restaurants and travelled by train, tube, taxi and bus!
