Milwaukee (CBS 58)--Man’s best friend gets a free pass to go to the office on Friday. It’s the 20th annual “Take Your Dog to Work Day.” Although it’s estimated only 20 percent of employers allow for this to actually happen.

Marketing and advertising firm Mortenson Kim in Milwaukee’s Third Ward will be taking advantage of the day. And to celebrate they’re having the first annual Pupathalon. Think of it as Doggie Olympics.

Money raised for this event will go toward the Wisconsin Humane Society.  You can actually donate too. Click here for all the details.  Meantime remember to check with your boss to see if it’s okay to bring your dog to work on Friday.
