It has been something that people have been asking for a long time. It might seem silly to some but to others in a necessity. No matter what side of the fence you sit on it has now become a reality. New pet owners are getting paid parental leave for their four-legged “children.”
A company called BrewDog that started with two men and a dog in 2007 has made a big announcement that is taking social media by storm. In their statement, BrewDog stated, “We introduced something out staff have been asking about for a while. We just introduced ‘puppy parental leave’ for all our crew.”
This “paw-ternity” allows any staff member with a new puppy the ability to have seven-days paid leave to be with the puppy.
While many loved the idea, there were, of course, those against it posting to social media.
