Wouldn't work where I work; I'm not sure whether having a dog running around in the sequencing lab would be worse for the dog (in a facility some of whose areas are rated BSL-3) or the lab (where contaminants are generally regarded as a Bad Thing), but I can't see it being a good thing for either. Kind of a shame, I think; it'd be nice to have pups around, at least in the office areas. But I just don't see it working. (I try not to be biased by the fact that, the first and so far only time someone brought a dog into an office where I worked, it promptly waddled over and pissed on my shoes.)
