For Boston Terrier lovers who work from home or in dog-friendly workplaces, designing an office space that accommodates both human productivity and canine comfort can be a rewarding task. Whether you’re on Zoom calls, designing your next big project, or sipping your morning coffee, having your Boston Terrier by your side makes the workday a lot more enjoyable.
In this blog post, we’ll explore practical tips to create a dog-friendly office space, what products can enhance the experience, and how to keep your Boston happy, safe, and entertained while you work.
Studies have shown that dogs in the workplace can help reduce stress, improve morale, and even increase productivity (Harvard Business Review). Boston Terriers, in particular, are known for their affectionate, curious, and playful personalities. They thrive on companionship and do best when they can be close to their humans.
Creating a dedicated space where your Boston can rest, play, and feel secure helps foster a calm environment—for both of you.
Your Boston Terrier will likely spend a good chunk of your workday napping, so make sure they have a comfy, quiet spot to relax.
Product tip: Try our Orthopedic Dog Bed – it’s soft, and provides comfortable place to sleep.
Place the bed in a corner of your office, away from foot traffic and noise. Consider adding a light blanket and a favorite plush toy to make it extra inviting.
Have a designated spot for your Boston's food and water bowls, but don’t place them near electrical outlets or cords.
Helpful item: Our Custom Dog Bowl with Name and Paw Print adds a personal touch to your workspace and keeps things stylish.
Pro tip: Use a non-slip mat underneath the bowls to prevent messes on your office floor.
Boston Terriers are playful and energetic—even when you're on back-to-back calls. Keep a small bin of toys nearby to encourage independent play.
Include:
Chew toys
Puzzle toys (like KONGs)
Soft squeaky toys
Bonus: Rotate toys weekly to keep things fresh and engaging.
Boston Terriers are curious. That means your charging cables, USB drives, or even your keyboard might become chew targets or napping spots.
Safety tips:
Use cable organizers or hide cords in tubing.
Keep small objects out of reach.
Store important papers in drawers or high shelves.
Boston-approved gear: Check out our Boston Terrier Desk Mat — it keeps your desk neat and adds adorable flair to your setup.
Boston Terriers love structure. Try to schedule your work hours around a routine that includes:
A morning walk
Midday potty break
Short afternoon play session
This keeps your Boston from becoming restless and ensures their needs are met without compromising your workflow.
Tip: Set a calendar reminder for dog breaks to stay consistent.
If your dog barks at outside noise or gets anxious during calls, play calming music or white noise.
Apps like Spotify for Pets and YouTube’s “Relaxing Music for Dogs” are great tools for creating a soothing atmosphere.
You can also use treat-dispensing toys to keep your Boston occupied when you need to focus.
Working with your Boston Terrier by your side is a privilege. Make it fun! Decorate your space with Boston-themed artwork, mugs, and accessories.
Shop ideas:
You can also join communities like our Boston Terrier Facebook Group to connect with other Boston fans working with their pups nearby.
Let’s face it—dog hair happens. Keep a small vacuum, lint roller, or pet-safe wipes in your office to stay on top of fur and paw prints.
Cleaning tips:
Use washable rugs and bed covers
Wipe paws after outdoor breaks
Keep cleaning supplies in a pet-safe cabinet
Boston Terriers are smart and easily bored. Interactive toys or short training sessions can help.
Try simple commands like “stay,” “sit,” and “shake” during short breaks. It keeps them engaged and strengthens your bond.
You might also consider a dog camera with a treat dispenser if you occasionally work outside the house. Brand like Furbo is a great option.
