Zookeepers are animal people, so it's not surprising that many of them are also pet owners. Given the tendency of their work to involve exotic animals, it also isn't surprising that many zookeepers keep pets more exotic than many other folks do - more snakes, lizards, tarantulas, hedgehogs, etc. That being said, plenty others remain good ol' fashion dog-and-cat people. Especially dogs.
Coming home to a dog can be a wonderful thing, for a variety of reasons (even if they always seem more interested in greeting our boots and pants than they do us). As it stands, going to work with a dog can also be a great thing. Two stories from the news this week show us that, whether at home or at the zoo, dog's really are man's best friend.
