Welcome to Traction's inaugural Office Dog Spotlight™. Furry friends are always welcome at Traction—as long as they maintain reasonable bladder control and don't scare away the FedEx guy. Our first spotlight lands on De Niro Burrows, a golden retriever with a true heart of gold.

Here are the facts:

De Niro is a zen master.

De Niro is one of the most well behaved and relaxed dogs we've had the pleasure of letting roam our halls. He's basically the canine version of "The Dude" from The Big Lebowski. He's often found contently sprawled on the ground, lost in deep thoughts like, "When is Melanie going to give me a snack?" Other dogs will often approach him in a frenzy, wanting to play. They'll lick De Niro's face and yet he will remain in a perfect meditative state. In De Niro's mind, Traction is his own private spa.

De Niro is punctual.

He can tell time. Really, we're not kidding. If you say, "De Niro, come back at 3:00pm for a treat," hell yes, he'll come back at 3pm on the dot! He is a dog who takes his snack time seriously. When we informed De Niro's human, Sidney, about his talent, Sidney replied, "Oh I know."

De Niro is a fashionista.

De Niro is a leader in canine fashion. He often shows up to the office sporting outfits such as tees, rain coats, and our favorite: a top that says, "Does this shirt make me look fat?"

De Niro is just one of the many four-legged characters that are currently employed at Traction. Thank you for tuning in to Traction's Office Dog Spotlight™. Until next time.
