Oasis-Office - Dog
We’re excited to share a new step in building a more human, connected workplace: welcoming an office dog.
This isn’t just about having a friendly face around —(that too, off course) it’s also about intentionally designing a healthier, more natural-centered work environment.
Why an Office Dog?
Heart & Soul: Dogs are natural teachers of presence, relaxation, and joyful activation.
Wellbeing Boost: Interacting with dogs reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, and increases oxytocin — helping us stay focused and calm.
Nature Connection: Midday walks become mindful rituals, grounding us in movement and the natural world.
Team Bonding: Shared walks and care build empathy, collaboration, and informal connection across teams.
Purpose & Compassion: We’re adopting a rescue dog — giving love and safety to a dog with a tough past, while learning from their resilience.
Our Commitment
We’ll choose a calm, friendly, and well-socialized dog (with expert guidance) and create a structured routine — with designated walk times and rest zones — so it supports everyone, including those who need space.
This small change could make a big difference — not just in how we work, but in how we feel.
More than a perk, it’s a practice: of kindness, presence, and shared purpose.
