Meet Taro

People's Choice Finalist

Meet Taro

Breed: Shiba Inu

Barking from: Auckland

What's up dog?

I work from home full time and Taro is the best companion and emotional support in my little home office. Petting him and seeing his cute little face helps to release stress. His presence encourages regular breaks for walks or play, promoting physical activity and mental refreshment. This enhances productivity and focus when returning to work tasks. Having Taro in my home office contributes to a more balanced, enjoyable, and healthy remote working environment.
