Hound Dogs are not for the Office

Are you thinking about getting a dog for your office? There are a lot of great dogs for businesses but I’d suggest avoiding certain types of dogs. One type of dog to avoid getting for an office is the hound dog.
Hound dogs are dogs that are really intended to be hunting dogs. They are meant to be outside. They are designed to pursue prey and they want to spend time running around. Many of them get skittish if they’re indoors for too long.
For example, the Italian GreyHound is a dog that would get upset in an office. These dogs tend to get really anxious if there is any type of negative activity happening around them (such as yelling). Offices are busy places where voices do get raised so this could upset the Italian GreyHound.
Not all hounds do poorly in offices. Larger hound dogs and hounds that are bred with another breed might be fine. And of course the individual dog’s temperament may differ from the norm for its breed. Nevertheless, I’d choose a different type of dog than a hound dog if I was going to look for an office dog. Something large but friendly is usually a good choice.
