In this roundup from the Encore and Mumbrella Annual, we look at the top agency dogs.
1. ‘Dweezil’, Task2
Dweezil was a stray puppy wandering the streets of Blacktown before he was rescued by Monika’s Doggie Rescue, which is where Task2 director Leanne Pyne found him. From there, Doggie Rescue became Task2’s client, and Dweezil is now the star of Monika’s ad campaigns. He has worked as office manager at Task2 for nine years.

2. ‘Billi’, Clemenger Bbdo Melbourne
A rare talent in office dogs is acrobatics. This skill doesn’t come in handy in agency life much, except at Clemenger Bbdo Melbourne. Billi, the office pooch belonging to Ellie Henderson, who’s executive assistant to creative chairman James McGrath (who brings his own dog, Scooby, into work), likes to shoot hoops at lunch time.

3. ‘Barney’, Spinach Advertising
Barney the Staffordshire Bull Terrier is chief morale officer at Spinach.

This is probably the fluffiest article ever on Mumbrella.
Office dogs.
What, if anything, does having a pooch on the premises add to company culture? Does man’s best friend contribute to the creative process? Or do they, much like procurement types, tend to bark at people and shit on everything?
Like graffiti on office walls, a dog in the agency is one thing I’ve noticed a lot lately on my travels around adland. I wondered if lap dogs in hospital wards help the healing process, what role do they perform in an ad agency?
The first agency I noticed for its canine credentials was Spinach Advertising, an agency in Melbourne, a city where I’ve noticed plenty of dogs in agencies.
I was at Spinach’s office in St Kilda to catch up with their media director Ben Willee. After walking out of the lift, I was met first by a receptionist,...
